Significant events after the balance sheet date
- Eolus received a substantial milestone payment amounting to 64.7 MUSD for the solar and battery storage project Centennial Flats in the USA. The milestone payment is estimated to have a positive effect on Eolus’s operating profit of USD 51 million in the fourth quarter.
- The Swedish government announced the rejection of 13 applications for offshore wind power projects in the Baltic Sea, including Eolus’s projects Skidbladner (1,000 MW) and Arkona (1,200 MW). Write-downs amounting to 40 MSEK have impacted the third quarter results.
CEO comment
To summarize, we are seeing a split picture, where the situation is challenging in some of Eolus’s European markets, especially in the Nordic region, but the willingness to invest remains strong in the US. After almost 35 years in the industry, Eolus has both experience and stamina, and we feel confident that we can balance a weaker European market with a strong trend in the US.
- Per Witalisson, CEO
