RWE’s selecting the Port of Utska is expected to create 50 jobs in the long term.

Siemens Gamesa Offshore Business Unit CEO Marc Becker said: “We are honoured to have secured the preferred supplier award from RWE for FEW Baltic II, one of the first offshore developments for the country.

“Combining our SG 14-236 DD offshore wind turbine technology with RWE’s entrepreneurial approach to Poland is an excellent fit.

“We are confident that this development scheme will follow the path set by the Polish supply chain, where qualified companies already deliver to a wealth of projects, with more to come.”

In a separate development, Siemens Gamesa has secured a wind turbine supply order from Ørsted for the 913MW Borkum Riffgrund III offshore wind project in Germany.

The company will deliver 83 offshore direct-drive turbines and has also signed a multi-year service contract for the turbines.
