Powering up the fairs: underground switching stations of Innotechnika in Gdansk and Sopot

18 December 2025

Fairs in Polish cities need a reliable power supply. Underground – invisible to visitors – Innotechniki’s underground switching stations are at work!

Underground switchboards of Innotechniki – invisible facilities of fairs in Polish cities

In winter and summer, Polish cities change beyond recognition. Squares, plazas and public spaces are filled with fairs, outdoor events, light decorations and seasonal infrastructure. For residents, it’s about climate and attractions. For organizers and city managers, precise logistics that must work flawlessly.

One of the key, albeit invisible, elements of these logistics is power supply. And this is where Innotechnika’s underground power switchboards come in, which have been supporting the organization of fairs and events in many cities in Poland – including Sopot and Gdansk.

Powering up outdoor events – a challenge you don’t see coming

Every fair involves dozens of power points: lighting, trade stands, catering, sound systems, decorations, multimedia elements. Temporary solutions – makeshift boxes, cables routed across the surface or ad hoc connections – generate the risk of failure, reduce the aesthetics of the space and make it difficult to manage the infrastructure.

Cities are increasingly looking for solutions that are durable, safe and invisible on a daily basis, and that can be quickly activated during events. Innotechnika’s underground power distribution and control cabinets are the answer.

Gdansk and Sopot – powering up fairs without the makeshift

Examples of this approach are the realizations in Gdansk (square at the Forum) and Sopot (Friends Square). These are places where public space must combine a representative function with the possibility of hosting large seasonal events.

The underground switchgears Innotechniki used there are invisible on a daily basis – integrated into the pavement and surroundings. During fairs or events, quick access to the power points is enough to efficiently run the entire technical infrastructure, without interfering with the aesthetics of the square and without the chaos of cables on the surface.

Why do cities choose Innotechnika’s underground switchgear?

Underground wells and distributors are made of high-quality plastic, resistant to erosion, weather conditions and groundwater. Unlike traditional concrete solutions, they are lighter, easier to install and more resistant to mechanical damage.

The products meet stringent durability standards, making them suitable for use in high-traffic areas – including spaces where service vehicles or heavy technical equipment travel.

The distributors remain hidden underground and do not disturb the architecture of squares, promenades and markets. This is especially important in tourist cities such as Sopot and Gdansk, where the appearance of the space is of great importance.

Innotechnika’s solutions are made from recyclable materials, and the manufacturing process is optimized to minimize the carbon footprint. This is a real support for ESG strategies and sustainable urban development.

Permanent infrastructure means lower installation and maintenance costs in subsequent years. Not having to set up temporary installations each time translates into savings and greater budget predictability.

Proven solutions in Poland and Europe

Innotechnika ‘s underground switchgear is used in numerous projects in Poland and European markets – both in the public and private sectors. These are proven technologies that have been trusted by cities, investors and infrastructure managers.

Invisible infrastructure that makes a difference

A well-designed power supply for outdoor events rarely attracts attention – and that’s exactly the point. When everything runs smoothly, with no breakdowns or stopgaps, attendees can focus on the atmosphere of the fair, and organizers can rest assured that the technical facilities will not fail.

Innotechnika’s underground switchgear is an example of infrastructure that is unobtrusive but crucial. And that is why more and more Polish cities are opting for such solutions.
