Interim report

Energeia group in short

This interim report should be read in conjunction with the Group's Q4 2022 report, the OSE Information Memorandum of 12 December 2022 and reports and stock exchange notices published in 2022 and 2023.

The Group's business is to develop, operate and own solar PV power plants, and to sell, install and service energy equipment and systems.

Geographical business focus is Norway and the Netherlands. At the end of the first quarter 2023 the Group employs 61 people; 50 in the Netherlands, 9 in Norway and 2 in Italy.

Current operations in Italy are management on behalf of EAM Solar ASA. The Group's small power plants in Myanmar are in a divestment process.

Main activities in Q1 2023

The main Group activities in the first quarter of 2023 were:

  • Integration of the ASN companies into the Energeia Group.
  • Development of new solar PV power plants in Norway and the Netherlands.
  • Operation of 7 solar PV power plants in the Netherlands and Italy, of which 3 are owned and 4 are managed.
  • The management of EAM Solar ASA.

All activity in Italy and 45 per cent of hours worked in Norway is on behalf of EAM Solar ASA. Approximately 50 per cent of hours worked in Norway were in conjunction with Norwegian project development.

Power production and sales price Power production

Energeia produced 1 568 MWh of electricity in the first quarter,

which represents 13.5 per cent of expected full-year 2023 power production of 11 500 MWh. Power production was 4 per cent lower than budget and 20 per cent lower than the same period in 2022, which was exceptionally high. 92 per cent of the power production is in the Netherlands.

Power price development in the Netherlands

Electricity prices in the Netherlands reached a record high in 2022 with an average of EUR 241.92 per MWh.

The 15-year SDE+ contract Drachtsterweg power plant has with the Dutch government agency RVO (The Netherlands Enterprise Agency) has a fixed price of EUR 90 per MWh for electricity delivered. However, if the market price is higher than the SDE+ contract, the Drachtsterweg power plant benefits from the higher price.

As reported in the stock exchange notice of 28 April 2023, RVO decided that the full-year 2022 market price for Solar PV power plants under SDE+ contract was set to EUR 203 per MWh after balancing costs. Consequently, the full-year 2022 electricity price including sale of green certificates became EUR 209 per MWh for 2022.

The preliminary SDE+ price for 2023 is set by RVO at EUR 150 per MWh. However, the actual average market price for the first four months of 2023 is EUR 116 per MWh.

The price invoiced in the first quarter for electricity sold is EUR 150 per MWh.

Norway

Project development Norway

At the end of the first quarter total project pipeline in various stages of development in Norway was approximately 1 100 MWdc, consisting of 9 projects with land lease agreements representing 609 MWdc and 9 projects with Letters of intent representing a 586 MWdc.

Projects with land lease agreements were 609 MWdc, with 75 MWdc applied for to NVE, 218 MWdc notified to NVE, and an 316 MWdc in concession application process preparation.

Some projects were removed from the category "land lease agreement" based on discussions with municipalities and land owners, with a net decrease in portfolio size of 21 MWdc in the first quarter.

The Group grew the portfolio of Norwegian projects at the Letter of Intent stage from 358 MWdc to 586 MWdc in the first quarter.

The effort to secure more projects and land lease agreements continued unabated in the quarter. Please take note that not all projects may receive concessions or the concessions granted may set limitations to installed capacity. Limitations may also be set by the grid company or by the final design.

Energeia AS submitted its first concession application to The Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate ("NVE") for the project Seval Skog in Gjøvik Municipality in December 2022. The project had initially an estimated installed capacity of 75 MWdc.

In the first quarter 2023 NVE changed its concession approval procedure with regards to grid connection clarification for Solar PV power plants in Norway. The policy change has resulted in a revision of the initial concession application due to lower current grid connection capacity reported by the grid operator Elvia than previously technically assessed.

An adjusted concession application for the Seval Skog agrivoltaic project will be submitted in May 2023, and will at this stage comprise a 45 MWdc Solar PV power plant including an 6 MWh intermediate battery storage facility as a first stage development.

In fourth quarter 2022 the Company received consultation documents from various parties in conjunction with the notice

of concession application for the projects Øystadmarka and Mæhlum, and in December the Company received the impact study requirements as decided by NVE for the two projects. Estimated size for Øystadmarka and Mæhlum is 150 MWdc and 35 MWdc respectively.

The Company received the consultive documents for the project Store Nøkleberg in early January 2023, and in March 2023 the Company received the impact study requirements as set forth by NVE for the project. Estimated size for Store Nøkleberg is 30–40 MWdc.

The Netherlands

Integrating ASN into the Energeia Group

Energeia acquired the companies Aardgasservice Noord BV and ASN Duurzaam BV ("ASN") in the Netherlands on 19 December 2022. ASN was acquired with financial ownership from June 2021, consequently, ASN is included in the full-year 2022 accounts.

The ASN companies install and maintain energy systems for households, businesses, and solar power plants. In addition, ASN is conducting operation and maintenance on the Drachtsterweg solar power plant.

Main activity in the first quarter, apart from ordinary business, was focused on integrating ASN operations and people into the Energeia Group fold.

A revised management structure based on existing employees has been set and the internal targets for profitable growth of

business decided by the management team. Main targets in 2023 is organic growth of business by 30 per cent while maintaining a 15 per cent EBIT margin.

Solar business development Netherlands

Grid congestion in the Netherlands has slowed the general execution of larger power plant projects due to increased leadtime for accessing a grid connection. However, the portfolio of potential projects and contacts remains more or less unchanged during the quarter.

ASN experienced a strong growth in household and large rooftop Solar PV installations in the first quarter. In addition, ASN has received a growth in requests for PV systems.

Based on the growth opportunities for ASN within installation of solar PV systems and energy storage these opportunities was given a lot of attention during the first quarter in conjunction with the integration of ASN in the Energeia Group.

Energeia is adjusting the Dutch organization in order grow in the fields of:

  • Solar PV installation for third parties (consumers and SMB).
  • Projects within agrivoltaics and large parking with EV charging.
  • Preparing for M&A activity of existing third party projects (built and to be build) including development of battery storage attached to solar PV power plants.
  • Preparing for growth within wholesale of Solar PV equipment in the Netherlands and Norway

In the first quarter the development of an agrivoltaics power plant in Burgum, Fryslân, of approximately 9 MWdc will enter the phase of final permitting in agreement with the municipality. The power plant has an opportunity for direct consumption by a commercial zone and from an EV charging solution in the vicinity.

Management of EAM Solar ASA

The group performs all administrative and technical operations of the company EAM Solar ASA through a long-term management agreement. EAM Solar ASA has no employees but has four solar power plants in Italy in operation.

Sales of electricity and services are recognised as they are delivered.

Classification and assessment of balance sheet items

Assets destined for permanent ownership or use are classified as fixed assets.

Fixed assets are assessed at acquisition cost. Current assets and current liabilities normally include items that are due for payment within one year of the balance sheet date, as well as items related to the commodity cycle. Current assets are assessed at the lowest acquisition cost and assumed fair value.

Receivables are classified as current assets if they are to be repaid within one year. For debt, similar assessment criteria are applied. However, first-year principal payments on long-term receivables and long-term liabilities are not classified as current assets and short-term liabilities.

Intangible assets

Development expenses are capitalized to the extent that a future economic benefit associated with the development of an identifiable intangible asset can be identified and expenses can be measured reliably. Otherwise, such expenses are expensed on an ongoing basis. Capitalised development is depreciated on a straight-line basis over an economic lifetime.

Property, plant, and equipment

Fixed assets are recognised in the balance sheet and depreciated on a straight-line basis to residual value over the expected life of the fixed assets. In the event of a change in depreciation schedule, the effect is distributed over the remaining depreciation period.

Maintenance of operating assets is expensed on an ongoing basis. Costs or improvements are added to the cost price of the operating asset and depreciated in line with the operating asset.

Expenses for renting operating assets are expensed. Prepayments are capitalized as prepaid costs and are distributed over the lease period.

Investments in other companies

The investments in subsidiaries, associated companies and joint ventures are accounted for according to the cost method. The cost price is increased when funds are transferred through capital increases, or when group contributions are made to subsidiaries.

Distributions received are recognized in the income statement as income. Dividends/group contributions from subsidiaries are accounted for in the same year in which the subsidiary sets aside the amount. Dividends from other companies are recognised as financial income when the dividend is approved. Investments are written down to fair value if the decline in value is not temporary.

Receivables

Trade receivables and other receivables are listed on the balance sheet at face value after deducting provisions for expected losses. Provisions for losses are made based on individual assessments of the individual receivables.

Pensions

Premiums for defined contribution pension schemes organised through life insurance companies are expensed for the period covered by the contribution and are included among wage costs in the income statement.

Tax

The tax expense in the income statement includes both the tax payable for the period and the change in deferred tax.

Tax-increasing and tax-reducing temporary differences that reverse or can reverse during the same period are offset. The inclusion of deferred tax assets on net tax-reducing differences that have not been offset and losses carried forward are justified by assumed future earnings. Deferred tax assets that can be recognised on the balance sheet and deferred tax are listed net on the balance sheet.

The respective country's tax rate of each subsidiary is used as a basis for tax assessments.

Currency

The company's accounting currency is Norwegian kroner.

Foreign currency receivables and liabilities that are not secured by means of forward contracts are recognised in the balance sheet at the exchange rate at the end of the financial year. Capital gains and capital losses related to the sale of goods and purchases of goods in foreign currency are recognised as operating income and cost of goods.

Financial revenues

Interest income is recognized as income as it is earned.

Shares in subsidiaries and associated companies

Subsidiaries are companies where the parent company has control, and thus decisive influence on the unit's financial and operational strategy, normally by owning more than half of the voting capital. Investments with 20-50 per cent ownership of voting capital and significant influence are defined as associated companies.

Cash flow statement

The cash flow statement has been prepared using the indirect method. Cash and cash equivalents include cash, bank deposits and other short-term, liquid investments.

Consolidation principles

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the time control is transferred to the group (time of acquisition).

In the consolidated accounts, the item "shares in subsidiary" are replaced by the subsidiary's assets and liabilities.

The consolidated accounts are prepared as if the group were one economic unit. Transactions, unrealized profits, and balances between the companies in the group are eliminated.

Purchased subsidiaries are accounted for in the consolidated accounts based on the parent company's acquisition cost.

Acquisition cost is assigned to identifiable assets and liabilities in the subsidiary, which are entered in the consolidated accounts at fair value at the time of acquisition. Any additional value beyond what can be attributed to identifiable assets and liabilities is entered in the balance sheet as goodwill. Goodwill is treated as a residual and entered in the balance sheet with the proportion observed in the acquisition transaction. Surplus values in the consolidated accounts are written off over the expected life of the acquired assets.

Translation of foreign subsidiaries is done by converting the balance sheet to the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and the profit and loss account being converted to an average exchange rate. Any significant transactions are converted to the exchange rate on the day of the transaction. All translation differences are entered directly against equity.
