Poland’s Energy Regulatory Office (ERO) has announced that Equinor and Polener-gia’s Baltyk II and Baltyk III projects were awarded contracts for difference (CfD) under the first phase of Poland’s offshore wind development scheme. The projects, with a com-bined potential capacity of 1440 MW, are among the first to secure offshore wind awards in Poland.
“The CfD awards to the Baltyk II and Baltyk III projects represent a breakthrough for Equinor in Poland and supports the country’s ambitions to transform its energy mix. Full scale development of the two projects will constitute an offshore wind hub in the Baltic Sea. It will create industrial activity and jobs to support the Polish economy, and supply low-cost renewable electricity to Polish homes and businesses. The CfD award confirms our focused strategy of creating value from early access at scale in attractive markets,” says Pål Eitrheim, Equinor’s Executive Vice President for New Energy Solutions.
