Highlighted developments

The third quarter of 2024 marked another significant period for Ocean Sun, where we continued shaping the company in alignment with our new strategy, by building a stronger pipeline and organization for future growth.

  • Together with partners, Ocean Sun has been awarded funding for a 250 kWp demo system in Brazil, and for developing a new solution for module fixation. The award is granted as part of a joint call between the Research Council of Norway (RCN) and their Brazilian counterpart FINEP. Ocean Sun will receive NOK 4 million from RCN for R&D related with creating a new module fixation design for benign waters and engineering of new materials. On the Brazilian side, our partners, Uapê and Viniartefatos, will receive funding from FINEP to develop a 250 kWp Ocean Sun pilot project outside of Rio de Janeiro in 2025.
  • Preparation for the Soneva Project in the Maldives is progressing nicely with installation work starting in November and expected commissioning in Q1 2025
  • Our installed demonstration systems for Acciona, Statkraft and SNAP/Scatec continues to deliver according to expectation and are all part of our new R&D project focused on the operation and performance of Ocean Sun's FPV systems, funded by Innovation Norway. The demonstrators continue to showcase that Ocean Sun has a strong and proven technology for our main markets on lakes, reservoirs and sheltered costal installations.
  • Three prefeasibility studies (PFS) were delivered during the quarter, yielding revenue of NOK 900 thousand. Two additional studies were started for delivery in Q4.
  • The BOOST R&D project in La Palma, is still at shore, but with good development in the detailed engineering process, where several improvements have been identified for the offshore version of our design. We aim at completing engineering of a new and updated design for La Palma during Q4 and initiate re-launch of the project during 2025.
  • Ocean Sun has been granted acceptance from the Research Council of Norway (RCN) for two SkatteFunn projects. While the first one mirrors the Innovation Norway project highlighted above to increase funding rate, the second project focus on developing a cost-efficient OS design for benign waters.
  • Strengthening the organization by welcoming our new COO, Carl Petter Lehne from mid-September and our new CPO, David Knutsen, from November 1. In addition, we recently initiated a process to recruit a new Chief Commercial Office (CCO). Current CCO, Alexander Telje will leave the company from December 31.

Project overview

Backlog and Pipeline

The current backlog consists of three projects. The Maldives project (2 MWp) with expected commissioning in Q1, the project in Greece (4 MWp), which is progressing and has expected installation mid 2025 and the recently communicated Brazil demonstration system of 250 kWp with estimated commissioning H2 2025. The signed and partly paid project with Keppel in Singapore has been removed from Backlog due challenges with grid connection. Other opportunities are being followed up together with Keppel.

The pipeline currently amounts to 36 MWp and consists of 14 projects. The pipeline defines the most mature projects in our sales funnel. All projects in the pipeline are expected to close within a year, and meet our requirements in terms of maturity, customer, location, and sea-state.

Comments

Revenue in Q3 2024 totalled NOK 2.2 million and relates to sale of membrane material to the Soneva project as well as revenue for the delivery of three PFS-studies.

Other income relates to recognized contribution from research grants. During Q3 2024 Ocean Sun recognized revenue from grants from Innovation Norway (Green Platform and new O&M project) and the research council of Norway (IPN project). The decrease in grant revenue YTD is due to no SkatteFunn revenue being recognized in 2024. This will be done in Q4, following acceptance of new SkatteFunn projects.
