Wind Industry Profile of
Poland Lays Foundation for Offshore Wind Development
As WindEurope reports, the letter defines the next steps in the collaboration to jointly develop a strong wind industry in Poland.
“Today marks the birth of offshore wind in Poland. Offshore wind has shown its reliability and efficiency elsewhere in Europe. With this joint ‘Letter of Intent’ Polish government and industry send a strong sign to investors and markets – that they want lots of offshore wind too and are putting in place a regulatory framework to support it”, says Giles Dickson, CEO WindEurope. “The potential for offshore wind in the Baltic is immense, and the Polish wind industry is ready to get started. Wind will contribute to a more modern, independent and healthy Poland. It will strengthen cooperation in the Baltic Sea region. And it will create future-proof Polish jobs in the manufacturing, service, maritime and port industries."
Offshore Wind is also needed to help diversifying the Polish national power generation structure that still deeply depends on coal.
Poland’s expansion targets for offshore wind are ambitious, with 3.8 GW of offshore wind in 2030.
