Deutsche Windtechnik has set up a new country unit for offshore services in Poland, to expand its international offshore business.
The move was due to rising demand for consulting services in the O&M business as well as the increasingly attractive market conditions, the company said.
Poland is currently undergoing a major energy transition and plans for expanding offshore wind energy have gathered a lot of momentum.
The unit, which was established on 15 March 2023, is headed by country manager Wojciech Łużniak, who has been managing the Polish onshore division of Deutsche Windtechnik for several years.
He said: “We have been watching the Polish offshore wind energy market for several years.
“Even though offshore planning is still at a relatively early stage here, we see significant potential. We want to contribute our technical know-how and our broad range of experience step by step to ensure the successful construction and operation of Polish offshore wind energy.
“We are relying on the close cooperation between our international offshore teams and we also want to establish teams in Poland itself for this. We see great opportunities for well-qualified personnel in the Polish labour market.
“The new unit is currently focusing on putting together a local offshore team and providing consulting services.
“We are already active in the Polish consulting business area and we will continue to build upon that.
“We are expecting rapid development over the coming years.”
