Amsterdam/Oslo – 31 July 2024 – MPC Energy Solutions (“MPCES”, “Company”) published its financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2024 today.
The second quarter was marked by a strong increase in energy output, resulting in surging revenues and margins in the first half of this year. An increase of proportionate energy output to 59.1 GWh (H1 2023: 40.4 GWh) led to proportionate project revenues and EBITDA of USD 6.1 million and USD 3.9 million, respectively, up from USD 4.0 million and USD 1.9 million in the first half of 2023.
“The results for the year's first half demonstrate that the changes we made and measures we implemented work. Our portfolio of assets across Central America enables us to grow, and we continue to control costs and increase profitability”, said Stefan H.A. Meichsner, Chief Financial Officer of MPCES. “We have laid a robust foundation for the remainder of the year.“
The Company also reported a positive group EBITDA of USD 1.7 million for H1 2024, compared to a negative group EBITDA of USD 0.9 million in H1 2023.
Fully operational portfolio
MPCES today owns and operates five power-producing assets across Latin America and the Caribbean with an aggregate capacity of around 79 MWp. 2024 is the first time the entire portfolio will be fully operational for a whole year.
“The third quarter is where we commonly see the largest contribution of revenues and profits to our business”, Meichsner added. “Based on the solid numbers we have delivered year-to-date, we confirm our 2024 outlook.”
The Company expects revenues in 2024 to increase to USD 12 million and project EBITDA to grow to USD 8.5 million, nearly doubling the 2023 EBITDA.
On track with milestone project
In addition to the solid financial results, Meichsner also underlined that the construction of the 65 MWp solar PV plant in Guatemala is progressing as planned. “We are on track to connect the project to the grid by mid-2025.” This project alone is expected to generate revenues of more than USD 8 million per year at EBITDA margins above 80 percent, once operational. MPCES is in the process of finding a co-investor for the project. “We intend to close a deal by the end of 2024, demonstrating the significant upside of the revised strategy and focus we introduced last year”, said Meichsner.
