Offshore Wind


Magnora strives to be conservative in its portfolio estimate counting assets with signed land agreements and a reasonable prospect for grid connection
Sales activities are picking up in all major markets
Portfolio: 9 GW in 2025 (+4GW) Sales: 200-325 MW in 2023 Price: 0.5->1.5 mNOK/MW (unchanged)
* Most sales occur pre "ready-to-build" with significant advance payments and subsequent payments subject to milestones. We recognize revenue when these milestones are met, e.g. grid connection or hand-over.
** E.g. stand-alone solar pv in South Africa that is unlikely to fetch premium prices. Prices for certain markets and projects may also be above this range.
