Market perspectives
Short-term pressures have slowed renewables FIDs
GW global solar and wind FIDs
- Despite record governmental decarbonization pledges and focus on energy security, FIDs1 outside China are set to drop in 2022
- Inflation, supply chain bottlenecks and permitting issues delay investment decisions
- Low bidding activity in recent auctions
- PPA levels and costs need to rebalance project returns. Both are moving in right direction
- Highlights need for governments and industry to work closely together
UN report: Climate action must be implemented the next eight years
"We are still nowhere near the scale and pace of emission reductions required to put us on track toward a 1.5 degree Celsius world. To keep this goal alive, national governments need to strengthen their climate action plans now and implement them in the next eight years."
Simon Stiell, Executive Secretary of UN Climate Change
US Inflation Reduction Act
- Could drive >USD 4.1 trillion in cumulative capital investments in new energy supply infrastructure the next decade
- Will kick off the CCUS industry CCUS may increase 13x by 2030 relative to current policy
- Driving a record high growth in wind and solar capacity across the country
- Augmented by newly-announced target for floating offshore wind of 15 GW by 2035 and signals of speeding up new deep-sea acreage
- Jump-starting the hydrogen economy in the US
USD billion annual capital investments in clean energy supply infrastructure

Portfolio overview
Aker Carbon Capture
Transforming the carbon capture industry through standardization
- Carbon capture company delivering ready-to-use capture plants; two projects in construction
- Validated certified market-leading proprietary technology, >50,000 operative hours
Aker Horizons' view
- Massive growth in carbon capture required to reach Net Zero by 2050. Carbon capture key to remove process emissions and decarbonize hard-to-abate industries such as cement and gas- and biomass-to-power
- Economics becoming viable with increased EU ETS and the US Inflation Reduction Act support of USD 85/ton; ACC's Just Catch modular system key contributor to cost reduction
- Innovative business models and holistic value chain approach to accelerate – Carbon Capture as a Service enables emitters to pay per tonne CO2 captured
Mainstream Renewable Power
Building a Renewable Energy Major – driving the energy transition
- Industry-leading wind capabilities across onshore, bottom-fixed and floating offshore
- Market leader in Chile and South Africa renewables, and Vietnam offshore wind
Aker Horizons' view
- Renewable energy is the backbone of decarbonization
- Strong momentum as countries increasingly announce dedicated targets and support schemes for development
- Mainstream a proven development engine opening and shaping markets, building multi-technology GW portfolios
- Floating offshore wind will accelerate faster than expected as LCOE comes down. Mainstream leveraging five decades of offshore experience in Aker and ownership in Principle Power
- High interest observed for renewable energy in private markets, as demonstrated by sale of Aela and Lekela platforms
Aker Horizons Asset Development
Develop, build, own and operate decarbonization assets across hard-to-abate sectors
- Holistic and integrated value chain approach to accelerate Net Zero
- Large-scale projects financed with strategic and financial partners
Aker Horizons' view
- Significant value creation potential in developing, building, owning and operating decarbonization assets
- Building on Aker and Aker Horizons' ability to realize large, complex and capex-intensive projects
- Hydrogen will play a significant part in the race to Net Zero and is ideal for decarbonization of many hard-to-abate sectors
- Moving downstream in the hydrogen value chain can increase margins and converts green energy to a green product with an existing market (e.g., iron). It also allows exports of low-cost energy to demand centers
SuperNode
Developing cable technology to enable the renewable electricity age
- Superconductor technology to conduct electricity with no resistance
- Proprietary cryostat designs, materials and heat management techniques
Aker Horizons' view
▪ The combination of significantly increasing our renewable energy share and electrifying our economies is essential to decarbonisation – but if we continue adding renewable energy at our current pace, many of our grids will be overwhelmed by 2030

Key sector themes
Updates on Chile and cost inflation
Chile market challenges to be mitigated by our diversified portfolio
- Grid transmission remains dislocated, with operators exposed to difference in price at injection to the grid and withdrawal
- Two companies have notified CEN (Chile's national electricity operator) that they can no longer fulfil their PPA contracts
- Mainstream's diversified structure portfolio and geographical and technology (wind and solar) approach, will help mitigate these impacts once fully operational
Cost inflation managed through continued financial discipline
- Cost increases that started in 2021 and have continued to constrain supply chains and impact development
- Investment decisions and orders have been delayed
- Combined, delivery schedules have lengthened while quote tender periods have shortened
- In managing this, Mainstream continues to maintain its financial discipline

Additional information
Aker Horizons' 2025 Ambitions
- The 25 Mt CO2e target consists of two main elements: 10 Mt CO2e of emissions reductions enabled through CCUS and ~15 Mt CO2e from avoiding emissions in electricity generation. Both targets include Aker Horizons projects in operation and in construction (as defined Aker Horizons' accounting policy) – taking into account an expected/estimated/observed capacity factor. The approach is based on the current draft of the GHG Protocol and may be updated in the future.
Note: Targets measure total capital investments, projects in operation and construction and annual emissions reduction from projects in operation and construction respectively (as defined by Aker Horizons' accounting policy), originated by Aker Horizons and platform companies, before sell-downs. For other projects, Aker Horizons' or platform companies' pro rata share of projects is applied.
