Ocean Winds, a 50-50 joint venture between EDPR and Engie, has signed a preliminary lease agreement with the port operator Szkuner for the port in Władysławowo. An O&M base for the maintenance of the BC-Wind offshore wind farm will be established on an area of 3,500m2 located at the landing quay and passenger pier.
The agreement concerns the delimitation of two areas: a warehouse and logistics area of 3,000m2 and a quay of approximately 500m2. The service harbour in Władysławowo will be an integral part of the service base for the BC-Wind project, servicing approximately 31 wind turbines located approximately 36 km from the harbour. The route from the port to the farm area is 20 nautical miles and will take approximately 75 minutes (at a speed of about 16 knots). The port in Władysławowo will be both a base for maintenance of its wind turbines and an important facility for the project not only during the operational phase, but also during the construction period. BC-Wind is an offshore wind farm with a capacity of up to 399 MW, located approximately 23 kilometres north of the coast at the height of the Krokowa and Choczewo municipalities in the Pomeranian province. Ocean Winds plans to start commercial operation of the BC-Wind wind farm in 2027.
