MPC Energy Solutions Q1 2023 results: Significant increase in revenues and EBITDA for its projects year-on-year
Amsterdam/Oslo - 27 April 2023 - MPC Energy Solutions (MPCES, Company) today
announces its Q1 2023 results. The quarter was marked by several milestones
including connecting three more projects to the power grid and signing long-term
off-take agreements for new projects. Revenues and operating profits increased
significantly compared to Q1 2022.
"The results of the first quarter underline the scale-up we can expect from our
business going forward and these effects will become even more visible as the
year progresses. We continue to build more power plants, expand our development
backlog and grow our revenues and operating income. MPCES is in a stronger
position now than at any time since the IPO in early 2021," says Stefan H.A.
Meichsner, Chief Financial Officer of MPCES.
The Company develops, builds, owns and operates renewable energy projects,
including solar PV and wind farms as well as hybrid and energy efficiency
solutions, in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Highlights of the quarter
· Announcing the start of operations for two plants in El Salvador (Santa Rosa
and Villa Sol) and Puerto Rico (Neol CHP LLC), in addition to completing the
construction of a 12.3 MW solar plant in Colombia (Parque Solar Los Girasoles)
and connecting it to the power grid.
· Signing a long-term power purchase agreement in Guatemala with one of the
country's largest private companies
· Expansion further into Puerto Rico by investing in a new combined-heat-and
-power project.
· The company generated USD 1.7 million in revenues during the first quarter
of this year (USD 0.5 million in Q1 2022).

(EBITDA) were USD 0.7 million (Q1 2022: USD 0.3 million), and project-level
earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were USD 0.4 million (Q1 2022: USD 0.3
million).
· Without including contributions from energy trading activities in Colombia,
the results for revenue, project-level EBITDA and project-level EBIT were USD
1.4 million, USD 0.9 million and USD 0.5 million, respectively, in line with the
Company's expectation and significantly exceeding the Q1 2022 results.

with proportionate operating profits on project level expected to grow to around
USD 7 million.
On consolidated level, MPCES reported negative EBITDA and EBIT of USD 0.7
million and USD 1.5 million, respectively, and a net loss for the reporting
