Other Permit Awarded

Alongside the 2024 environmental decision, the Bałtyk 1 project obtained a decision approving a geological works project. This permit authorised detailed ground investigations to characterise conditions for future foundations of wind turbines, substations and internal cables. On the basis of the approved geological works plan, CPT (cone penetration test) soundings were conducted to determine bearing parameters and soil properties across the planned wind farm area. The approval of this geological works project was an important technical and regulatory step, enabling Equinor and Polenergia to refine foundation designs and de-risk construction by basing engineering on site-specific geotechnical data.
