Current Activities in Poland
Together with Polenergia, we are developing the Bałtyk triplets, offshore wind projects with a total capacity of 3 GW—enough to power over 4 million households. These projects play a crucial role in achieving Poland's updated energy strategy, which includes reaching 18 GW of offshore wind power by 2040. This exciting project also includes the design and build of a brand-new operations and maintenance base located in the coastal town of Łeba, creating jobs and fostering awareness of the renewable efforts of Equinor in Poland.
We are also building an onshore renewables portfolio through our subsidiaries Wento and BeGreen.
Wento is a Polish multi-tech power producer operating three solar plants and an onshore wind park with a total capacity of ~200 MW. The company has a project pipeline of over 3 GW in Poland, comprising both generation and battery storage opportunities.
BeGreen is a leading Danish solar developer with a large project pipeline in North Europe, including several solar projects in Poland.
These initiatives underscore Equinor’s commitment to integrating into the local market and driving sustainable growth in Poland’s renewable energy sector. Through these partnerships, we are not only supporting Poland's energy transition but also establishing a strong foothold in the local renewable market, enhancing our contribution to the country’s energy security and environmental objectives.
We're also a reliable and long-term natural gas supplier to Poland, delivering approximately 2.4 billion cubic meters of gas annually from the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
