PVTIME – Scatec Solar’s first quarter 2020 proportionate revenues was NOK 866 million (1,528) with an EBITDA of NOK 346 million (315) and associated EBITDA margin of 40%. The Power Production segment delivered 349 GWh on proportionate basis, an increase of 162% from the same quarter last year.
First quarter revenues decreased compared with the same quarter last year due to lower construction activity only partly offset by higher power production. The EBITDA increased by 10% in the same period, driven by new solar power plants starting commercial operation over the last quarters, doubling EBITDA in the Power Production segment to NOK 331 million (164). This change in segment mix impacted the EBITDA margin positively and resulted in a higher overall margin than in previous periods.
“We have so far not experienced any impact of COVID-19 on our operating assets; however, some deferred commissioning of new solar plants and slower project development activities are becoming evident. We recently strengthened our financial platform at attractive terms, and we continue our close partnerships with development banks. Our strategic priorities remain firm and we see attractive project opportunities in our target markets”, says Raymond Carlsen, CEO of Scatec Solar.
Scatec Solar’s first quarter consolidated revenues reached NOK 625 million (327), and EBITDA was NOK 503 million (242). At the date of reporting, the Company had a total backlog and pipeline of 5.8 GW.
