Offshore wind consultancy OWC has been retained as technical advisor by developer Baltic Power for the latter’s 1200MW Polish offshore wind farm.
OWC, AqualisBraemar LOC’s wholly owned renewables technical consultancy arm, will support the PKN Orlen-owned outfit during the development of the project by assurance of comprehensive technical advisory services.
This includes provision of technical information, analysis and recommendations regarding the issues related to both the project and the market, but also engagement in revision and verification of project deliverables.
OWC’s Polish office will lead the company’s technical advisory work on the project, with country manager Lukasz Sikorski taking the lead role.
OWC’s Poland office started operations in May 2020 to support offshore wind developments in the Baltic Sea.
“This technical advisory contract with OWC in Poland is confirmation that PKN Orlen is delivering on its promise to engage local businesses. We are proud to be engaged for such a major project,” said Lukasz Sikorski (pictured), head of OWC in Poland.
The project area covers approximately 131 square kilometres located some 23 kilometres off Choczewo and Łeba. It is expected this will be one of the first offshore wind projects Poland will implement as part of the ambitious sector development plan.
