By April 2025, the Bałtyk 2 and Bałtyk 3 onshore export cable corridor had entered the installation phase. The official project progress page on baltyk123.pl reports that two sections of the 400 kV extra-high-voltage underground cable linking the Pęplin onshore substation to PSE's Słupsk Wierzbięcino grid connection point had already been laid, while horizontal directional drilling (HDD) works had started for the 220 kV export cable sections running under the beach and coastal dunes between the landfall area west of Ustka and the onshore grid connection infrastructure. These works mark the effective start of onshore export cable installation along the approximately 14 km connection corridor, with Polish contractors Enprom handling cable route preparation and civil works, Tele-Fonika Kable supplying the 220 kV and 400 kV onshore cables from its Bydgoszcz plant, and Hanab and ZRB Janicki performing the HDD landfall drilling operations. The onshore cable installation is proceeding in parallel with onshore substation construction at Pęplin by Hitachi Energy and subcontractor Erbud.
