Project portfolio
Eolus' success as a developer of renewable energy projects is in large dependent on access to a highquality project portfolio that develops and is optimized over time. Over time the project portfolio consists of projects for wind, solar and storage in different phases developed by Eolus or acquired from others. Development and optimization of projects is done during a long period of time. Development and optimization of the most important projects in the total project portfolio is therefore key activities for Eolus.
All project development normally occurs at Eolus own risk and even if Eolus has well developed processes for project development, there is a risk that some projects might not be able to establish due to market and permit factors in the future.
