Baltic Towers delivers Poland’s first offshore wind tower section

A strategic step for Poland’s energy transition

- The dynamic growth of offshore wind gives us the opportunity to position Baltic Towers as a key supplier not only in Poland, but across Europe, said Jakub Wnuczyński, CEO of Baltic Towers.

The Gdańsk plant, inaugurated in May 2025, has been designed to supply the next generation of offshore wind projects. Once fully ramped up, it will produce up to 150 steel towers annually, compatible with 15 MW+ turbines. Each section can reach 50 meters in length, 11 meters in diameter, and weigh as much as 500 tons.

Backed by global expertise

GRI Renewable Industries, Baltic Towers’ Spanish shareholder, operates 22 plants worldwide and employs more than 60,000 people.

- Baltic Towers is now among the most advanced offshore tower producers globally, said GRI President Jon Riberas. - The Baltic Sea has enormous potential, and this investment ensures Poland will play a central role in Europe’s offshore build-out.

Baltic Towers has already secured its first clients, including Vestas, Siemens and APP, and is eyeing markets beyond the Baltic, particularly the North Sea and the United States.

Regional and national impact

Ilona Deręgowska, vice president of ARP, highlighted the project’s wider benefits:

- Baltic Towers will stimulate local supply chains and strengthen cooperation with universities in Gdańsk, a city whose economy has always been rooted in the maritime sector.

The company currently employs 200 people, with a target workforce of 500 as production scales.

Poland’s minister of climate and environment, Paulina Henning-Kloska, emphasized the strategic importance of building domestic capacity:

- We cannot swap dependence on fossil fuels for dependence on foreign technologies. Offshore wind in the Baltic gives us the chance to build our own capabilities and shorten supply chains.

Gdańsk on the offshore map

Gdańsk mayor Aleksandra Dulkiewicz called the achievement a success for the city, the region, and the country:

- This milestone shows that Poland is not only a bearer of values but also of tangible results, proving that hard work delivers.

Poland joins offshore leaders

The launch of Poland’s first offshore tower section underscores the country’s determination to join Europe’s offshore wind leaders. With state-of-the-art facilities, international backing, and access to one of the most promising seas for offshore development, Baltic Towers positions Gdańsk as a new hub for the global offshore wind industry.

- We did it – Poland’s first offshore tower section is ready, concluded Jakub Wnuczyński. - The Baltic wind gives us the power to make such ambitious projects a reality.
