Magnora expands South African solar PV project and triggers additional milestone payment

12.12.2023 15:09:18 CET | Magnora ASA | Non-regulatory press releases

On 20 October 2023, Magnora announced that Globeleq had bought a 90 MW solar PV

project at a location with considerable demand from commercial and industrial

(C&I) customers. The project has now been increased to 125 MW triggering a

second payment.

The project site is located in an area with several potential industrial

customers that have expressed an interest in private power purchase agreements

(PPAs), and the Magnora SA team is supporting Globeleq in completing the

development and commercialization of the project.

"The expansion of this project is a great example of how we create value

together with our partners and clients, even after projects have been sold. Our

business model is built on a cooperative approach, independent of whether the

projects are sold early or late in the development process, and this has proven

successful in multiple markets" says Erik Sneve, CEO of Magnora ASA.
