The Polish Port of Gdynia, the Kosakowo commune, and the Polish cities of Rumia and Gdynia have signed a letter of intent to develop onshore facilities for the development of offshore wind farms in Baltic Sea.
The local governments will operate the facilities to support offshore wind construction and component manufacturing.
The first Polish offshore wind farm is expected to enter construction in 2022.
The Port of Gdynia said it is experienced in the handling of oversize cargo.
Port of Gdynia Authorities president Adam Meller said: “In regard to our infrastructure potential and navigational capabilities, we have carried out analysis of the possibilities of adapting the land for the handling, storage and assembly of offshore wind farm components.
“The results indicate that we are ready to service offshore wind farms, both during the construction and operation phases.”
