The project comprises 107 turbines with a capacity to generate 1.5GW of power
UTEC, Acteon's Geo-Services business line, has been awarded a structural monitoring contract for what will be the largest offshore wind project in the Polish area of the Baltic Sea, Baltica 2, developed together by Ørsted and PGE
Ørsted commissioned Acteon for the design, engineering, procurement, installation and commissioning of measurement and associated data acquisition systems for the Baltica 2 offshore wind farm, located offshore Poland. The project comprises 107 turbines with a capacity to generate 1.5GW of power and is predicted to be completed by the end of 2027.
The project involves campaigns to measure vital data related to the structural integrity of the Baltica wind turbines, including environmental, metocean, settlement, load, acceleration, corrosion, and anode efficiency. This data will be integrated in real-time through Acteon's proprietary NX2 digital platform.
Paul Smith, executive vice president of UTEC Geo-services, said, “The Baltica 2 contract is another significant testament to our capabilities to support the global offshore energy industry. We are proud to be leading the data-driven part of such an important energy transition project.”
Acteon will execute the project-based systems integration and software development at its Technology Centre in Wokingham, UK, and the installation will take place in construction yards in Poland and other European locations.
