Highlights:
- Q1 2025 EBITDA: European Energy delivered a solid result with a Q1 2025 EBITDA reaching EUR 45.9m, an increase of EUR 49.6m compared with Q1 2024, mainly as a result of more sales of energy parks and ready to build (RTB) projects.
- Solid project divestments: in Q1 2025, European Energy divested energy parks and projects totaling EUR 165.6m (Q1 2024: EUR 4.2m). The total capacity of divested solar energy parks amounted to 1.169 MW (Q1 2024: 0MW), of which 956 MW was a RTB project in the US and 213 MW was a forward sale in Denmark. Gross profit from the sale of energy parks and projects totalled EUR 48.9m (Q1 2024: EUR -7.9m), reflecting solid sales margins.
- Power production and sales: The total power production in Q1 2025 yielded 496 GWh, a decrease of 59 GWh or 11% compared to Q1 2024. Gross profit from sale of energy in Q1 2025 amounted to EUR 15.6m, a decrease of 11% compared to Q1 2024, mainly as the result of the beforementioned lower production.
- Power to X (PtX) projects progressing well: European Energy's Kassø e-methanol facility in Denmark continued the production preparations during the first quarter. In April, the Kassø facility produced industry-grade e-methanol for the first time and was certified as producing e-methanol under the EU's new sustainability framework for renewable fuels (ISCC EURFNBO standard). On May 13th, the facility was officially inaugurated and is now supplying e-methanol to A P Moller-Maersk, Novo Nordisk and the Lego group as offtakers.
- Comfortable funding status: European Energy ended Q1 2025 with a unrestricted cash position of EUR 189m and undrawn committed revolving credit facilities of EUR 93m leaving European Energy comfortably funded.
- 2025 financial outlook: On 28 February 2025, the Group announced its financial outlook for 2025 with EBITDA expected in the range of EUR 200-300m for 2025. We maintain this expectation as our Q1 2025 EBITDA was in line with own expectations and plans for the remaining year supports this target.
