The agreement was signed in Świnoujście, Poland, during the Polish Wind Energy Association (PWEA) Conference by Andrzej Wołczyk, Vice-Chairman of ENMARO, and Egbert Jansen, Team Lead Owner’s Engineering of Pondera Consult.

Poland has significant potential for offshore wind development, with the government aiming for 10.9 GW of capacity by 2027 and an ambitious target of 18 GW by the end of the decade.

Headquartered in Gdynia, Poland, ENMARO is an engineering and business consulting company providing advice at every stage of offshore project development.

The firm specializes in feasibility studies, conceptual design, permitting, environmental and financial assessments, development of implementation schedules, market analysis of potential contractors and suppliers and their selection, client representation or manning during the construction and installation process, moving to operation and maintenance, and decommissioning strategies.

“We specialize in engineering, consulting, modeling, and support of strategic investment decisions. Our team has extensive knowledge and hands-on experience in the whole OWF value chain. I firmly believe that our cooperation with Pondera will add value to the offshore wind industry in Poland,” Wołczyk commented.
