In October 2025, the Bałtyk 2 and Bałtyk 3 project reported significant fabrication milestones for offshore infrastructure components at multiple facilities across Europe. Key achievements included setting the first transition pieces upright at the fabrication yard, completing initial production of one of the two offshore substation topsides and beginning its outfitting phase, and completing fabrication and assembly of the jacket support structure for one of the offshore substations. These works were carried out in parallel at facilities in Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The offshore substations are critical components of the Bałtyk 3 Export transmission system, housing the 220 kV HVAC switchgear and transformer equipment that will aggregate power from the Bałtyk III wind farm's inter-array cables and step it up for transmission via the two 220 kV submarine export cables to landfall near Ustka. Progress on these fabrication milestones confirms the project is on track for offshore installation commencing in 2026.
