required to be disclosed under the laws of a member state
17 August 2021. Magnora, a Norwegian renewable energy development company,
releases its financial report for the second quarter 2021.
"In the quarter, Magnora has continued maturing the portfolio of wind and solar
assets and made several follow-up investments in the portfolio companies, as
planned milestones are achieved. In addition, we are in discussions with
potential partners and investors for investments and ownership optimizations in
our portfolio companies", says CEO Erik Sneve.
Highlights:
* Magnora Offshore Wind AS was established as a strategic partnership company
with TechnipFMC, and the company submitted applications in the ScotWind
licensing round for two areas in Scotland
* Trond Gärtner joins Magnora from Statkraft and has been appointed Senior Vice
President Offshore Wind Projects, and Emilie Schjøtt Brackman joins Magnora
from DNV and has been appointed Manager Offshore Wind Projects. Both will
have a central role in the development of Magnora Offshore Wind AS
* Magnora's SPV in South Africa progressed with early phase land surveys and
discussions with potential local partners
* As planned, Magnora increased its ownership share in Kustvind AB and Evolar
AB to 24% and 41%, respectively. Kustvind has met key milestones, which
includes survey of the local opinion with very encouraging results, and
environmental and wildlife related surveys that so far has provided expected
results. Similarly, Evolar has continued to progress with its tandem
cell-efficiency development ahead of its original plan
* Magnora renegotiated a new agreement with RWE Renewables for development of
the Oddeheia and Bjelkeberget onshore wind farms and we have taken a more
active part in the project
* The operating costs this quarter were slightly higher than in the first
quarter, due to increased business development activities and the development
establishment of Magnora Offshore Wind AS and the Magnora SPV in South Africa
* Adjusted EBITDA for first half of 2021 was negative NOK 2.9 million
