Collective drive towards green shift gives lower risk in earlystage development

Value premium for early-stage project development with low operational costs

Reducing risk in development phase through high competence and experience

Strategic partnerships

Developing projects to Ready-to-Build phase with limited balance sheet risk ("ASSET LIGHT")

Proven model with clear opportunities for future growth

Projects sold & guidance MW, net share of project capacity1

Price range for RTB solar PV and onshore wind range from NOK 0.5 to above 1.5 million per MW2 subject to risk factors such as unit economics, grid, permitting, etc.
