Wind farms

Ignitis Renewables is managing the Group’s wind farm projects in the Baltic States and Poland. These countries perfectly suitable to develop onshore wind because there are no natural obstacles (e.g., high mountains) that block the wind and the population density is low. By developing wind farms, we lay a path for the energy transition.

Onshore wind farms 

As leaders in harnessing the power of the wind, we understand its potential to revolutionize how we generate electricity. Onshore wind energy offers a clean, efficient, and inexhaustible energy source. This renewable power mitigates the impact on our environment, significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional fossil fuels.

Offshore wind farms

Offshore wind development is strategically important for the global energy transition. Successful development of wind farms in the Baltic Sea is a very important step towards regional energy independence.

Such projects will significantly increase local electricity generation from renewable energy sources and, thus, decrease the dependence on electricity imports. They will also facilitate the region's transition to a sustainable green energy hub and contribute to the goal to turn the Baltic States into energy exporters to Central Europe.

We are targeting to implement at least two offshore wind projects in the Baltic States, one in Lithuania (with estimated COD around 2030) and at least one more in another Baltic country (estimated COD after 2030).

The first Lithuanian offshore wind farm, Curonian Nord

The first Lithuanian offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea has a designated maritime area of around 120 km² in size. The site is at least 37 km away from the Lithuanian coast. The total capacity of the offshore wind farm should reach 700 MW. The wind farm will have up to 55 wind turbines with a maximum height of 350 m.

The project is expected to start operations around 2030. We are developing the offshore wind farm together with Ocean Winds. The Curonian Nord offshore wind farm will cover about a quarter of Lithuania’s current electricity demand.

Estonian offshore wind farm

The Estonian offshore wind farm will be built at Liivi 1 and 2 sites. The wind farm will be located in the Gulf of Riga, northwest of Ruhnu Island, near Estonia’s Baltic Sea coast, and cover an area approximately 193 km² in total. Liivi 1 and 2 sites are planned to be developed as a single offshore wind project.

The theoretical potential capacity of both sites is calculated to be 2.3 GW. However, the actual capacity of the offshore wind farm is likely to be lower and could be around 1–1.5 GW. It will depend on the environmental impact assessment’s results, geology of the area, defence requirements, site optimisation, electricity demand, socio-economic considerations, as well as other factors.

The offshore wind farm is expected to become operational around 2035. We are developing it together with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP).

Local communities and us

The wind farms we are developing are surrounded by people who cherish and protect their land. We respect the locals and understand their concerns about potential changes. That is why, from the very beginning, we are building a relationship with local communities based on openness and good will. It is the foundation for being a good neighbour.

We are trying to be a good neighbour and promote mutual trust by listening to the expectations and needs of local communities while sharing relevant information about the projects we develop, their impact on the environment and the measures we take to reduce it.

Financial support for communities

We contribute to improving the environment, quality of life and energy efficiency by providing financial support for local community projects.

Promoting education is another way for us to try and be better neighbours. Our experts are sharing their knowledge about renewables and their significance in ensuring the national energy independence with the communities. We also contribute to strengthening the sense of civic duty.
