24 March 2021: Cloudberry Clean Energy AS ("Cloudberry" or "the company") has in

renewable energy for future generations.

energy coming on-stream within 12 months

MW), an exclusive backlog of 11 projects (370 MW) and a shallow-water pipeline >

2500 MW.

private placements to finance its growth

planned

increased our renewable energy growth platform by attracting new assets, people

and capital. We have enlarged our project backlog and our production capacity;

we have teamed up with new partners and are in discussions with more.

Furthermore, we have strengthened both our development team and balance sheet",
