Poland’s Military University of Technology signs Apache offset agreements with Boeing and GE Aerospace
WAT has signed offset agreements with Boeing and GE Aerospace for Poland's 96-helicopter Apache programme, including an AH-64E training centre and a composites laboratory.
RelyOn Poland opens first OPITO-accredited offshore safety training centre in Gdańsk
RelyOn Poland has become the first training provider in Poland's Pomorze region to offer OPITO-accredited offshore safety courses, adding capacity as the Baltic's offshore wind workforce grows.
Fixing a cut cable in the Baltic: what closing the repair gap would take
EU funding for subsea cable repair covers telecom lines, not the power cables carrying offshore wind and interconnector traffic, leaving grid operators to pool their own vessels and spares as a nascent rental market fills the equipment gap.
How sabotage fears and a Swedish cable standoff are reshaping the EU’s grid interconnection drive
A wave of EU interconnection funding has collided with security fears and national pushback — from a Swedish cable freeze to a sabotage-repair fund and a Polish blackout drill.
Ocean Winds lays cornerstone for BC-Wind operations base in Władysławowo
Ocean Winds has laid the cornerstone for an O&M base in Władysławowo that will support its BC-Wind offshore wind farm for decades, as Poland's coastal service infrastructure continues to take shape.
Wind jobs in numbers: 180,000 offshore roles, a Pomeranian skills push and the Lindø layoffs
From 443,000 European wind jobs and 180,000 offshore roles to Germany's inland supply chain, Pomerania's training push and Vestas' cuts at Lindø: a roundup of what the employment figures mean for the Baltic.
Bałtyk 2 and 3, step by step: how Polenergia and Equinor’s offshore build went from rock on the seabed to first foundations
A tracker of the Bałtyk 2 and 3 offshore wind build: rock placement, first foundations, substation topsides, the onshore grid link and the milestones still ahead before first power in 2027.
How Poland’s offshore wind year began: Baltic Power, Baltica 2 and Baltic East in one sequence
A roundup of the early-2026 milestones across Poland's three offshore wind projects, from Baltic Power's fishermen compensation to Baltica 2's seabed works and Baltic East's auction price, with a look at what comes next.
From national to regional: how 2026 rewired cooperation around the North Sea and the Baltic
Four early-2026 forums, from the Hamburg North Sea Summit to a 47-region declaration in Stockholm, converged on cross-border offshore planning. A roundup of what they decided and what the Baltic can borrow.
Poland’s PLN 214 billion onshore wind plan, revisited: the assumptions behind the number
The industry strategy values Poland's onshore wind market at up to PLN 214 billion by 2040, but the figure rests on 1.5 to 2 GW of annual additions, a turbine supply chain still 75 per cent foreign, and a grid that already curtails 5 to 10 per cent of renewable output.
Who repairs a cut cable? The missing layer in Baltic subsea infrastructure protection
Prevention and detection dominate the debate on Baltic subsea infrastructure. Repair capacity - vessels, spare sections and crews - is the thinnest layer, and the European funding that exists mostly covers telecom cables rather than power.
The grid is the bottleneck: what Europe’s connection queues mean for Baltic wind
Permitting used to be the hard part. Now it is the wires: 72 TWh curtailed across Europe, 800 GW stuck in connection queues, and a Baltic hybrid interconnector facing a decision point.
Fourteen transformers reach Baltica 2 site after six-month heavy transport from Türkiye
COLI Group has completed a six-month transport of 14 power transformers from GE Vernova's Turkish factory to the onshore site for Poland's Baltica 2 offshore wind farm, using three vessels, two ports and temporary structures over bridges too weak to carry the load.
Onshore wind costs 8.2 cents. Getting permission still costs years
German data puts new onshore wind at 8.2 cents per kWh against gas backup at three to four times that. Auctions are oversubscribed and capital is queueing. The bottleneck has moved entirely to permitting.
From the seabed to the airspace: what actually protects Baltic energy infrastructure
Mine clearance, anti-submarine patrols, air defence and a defence-tech accelerator each protect Baltic energy assets in part. None of them was designed to, and the financing question is still open.
