Spain’s GRI Renewable Industries (GRI) and the Polish Industrial Development Agency, ARP, have launched a joint venture to build an offshore wind tower factory in the city of Gdansk.
The estimated value of this investment is more than €200m and production is expected to start in 2025 with the hiring of 400 workers.
The factory will be located on the island of Ostrów in Gdansk, with direct access to a mooring quay.
It will include an offshore tower production hall capable of making towers for turbines with capacities of 14MW and above.
The factory will have the capacity to manufacture more than 200 offshore towers a year.
The planned investment will meet the growing demand for wind towers in Poland’s growing offshore wind market and other offshore wind markets in the Baltic Sea.
