War in Ukraine and constraints on natural gas have increased electricity prices in Europe to unsustainable levels. Renewable Energy Sources (RES) are the obvious solution to reduce energy prices and reinforce security of supply

Permitting is the main bottleneck for growth in utility scale RES. The European Commission recognized that development is critical to deploy more resources in the system

Current market instability has increased the demand for Long Term PPAs and, on the other hand, is driving investor's appetite for projects at commercial operation date (COD)

Current high power prices and the price for forward contracts are accelerating demand for Distributed Generation (DG), through self consumption and energy communities, which may represent 25% of European consumption in the future

Baseload renewables, such as sustainable biomass, are playing a bigger role in energy independence

GreenVolt's business areas are key to the EU's energy strategy going forward

  • Well-established and positioned company in the renewable energy sector with proven operational and financial capabilities
  • GreenVolt's strategy is focused on 3 key business areas:
Wind & Solar
Utility-Scale

Additional growth in the development phase, where most of the value lies. Driving more projects to COD, while still selling at RTB
keeping a balanced farm down (case-by-case analysis depending on where the largest value creation is)

Consolidation and expansion through co-development agreements, as it is the most effective way to grow with a quick time-to-market

Hold 20-30% of existing pipeline of projects developed on balance sheet, via long term contracts (PPAs)
Distributed
Generation

Accelerated growth in the self-consumption and energy communities' markets, on the back of a renewed market demand for renewable
energy, namely Rooftop PV could provide almost 25%1
of the EU's electricity consumption

Consolidation of positions in Portugal and Spain; Entering new markets, with emphasis on Commercial & Industrial clients and Energy
Communities
Residual
Biomass

Continuous optimization of existing plants

Possible greenfield projects in Portugal of up to 20 MW

Capital allocation flexibility aimed at opportunistic M&A in the renewable energy space
Conservative and strong financial policy with stable and predictable cashflows

Competitive Human Resources policy focused on recruitment and retention of top-tier people Increased liquidity following Altri's dividend-in-kind and share capital increase of July

1 Probability-weighted pipeline capacity. Excludes USA and Germany.

Inflation putting pressure on construction margins due to rising raw material and logistics costs

Macro trends impacting construction phase…

Modules scarcity due to temporary supply chain distress leading to temporary increases in prices and creating a mismatch between supply and demand continues to drive volatility

Increased perceived risk of construction of renewable assets…

… and pushing less specialized players out of the value chain

…Increasing demand from investors to acquire projects at COD (fully de-risked)

GreenVolt is leveraging its competitive advantages to act as a turnkey provider in the new context

Strong track record through an experienced team in developing and constructing renewable assets

Vast industry knowledge to find profitable long-term PPAs (e.g. T-Mobile Polska PPA)

Ability to deliver COD projects, controlling the risk and retaining attractive returns (fixing energy sales price and capex simultaneously)

Notes: Exit values in Poland are derived from historical V-ridium transactions and in-depth knowledge regarding investor yield expectations. Exit values in Greece are derived from V-ridium insight into market transactions and in-depth knowledge regarding investor yield expectations. In the case of Italy and France, despite those markets currently yield higher exit values, V-ridium is assuming a compression of exit values due to increased competition.
