Kibo Energy PLC ('Kibo' or the 'Company')

Operational Update: Q2 2023

Kibo Energy PLC (AIM: KIBO; AltX: KBO), the renewable energy focused development company, is pleased to provide an operational update as it enters the second half of 2023. This follows its update as provided in a Company RNS dated 6 April 2023.

Portfolio

The Kibo Group strategy, as previously announced in a Company RNS dated 19 April 2021, is focused on developing, owning and operating sustainable energy solutions that can immediately and progressively address the acute energy challenges in sub-Saharan Africa, the United Kingdom and Ireland.

The table below indicates the status of Kibo's project portfolio at present. Timelines beyond Q3 2023 remain as advised on 6 April 2023 and the Company will advise should these change in light of the below. This does not include opportunities that are currently the subject of advanced due diligence and commercial consideration.

All funding activities, including the Company's proposed AIM-listed vehicle Ultimate Sustainable Energy ('USE'), were placed on hold due to delays as a result of EGM difficulties where shareholders were unable to cast their votes, which was partially resolved at the most recent EGM (see RNS dated 16 March 2023).

Louis Coetzee, CEO of Kibo Energy, says: "We are pleased with the overall progress during the last quarter, and we look forward to updating the market during the course of Q3 on a number of exciting initiatives currently underway on both operational as well as corporate level".
