SCA and E.ON sign agreement on wind power joint venture

SCA signed a joint venture agreement with E.ON today, through which E.ON will
develop a number of wind power projects together with SCA.
The joint venture includes the areas operated by SCA Vind up until the licence
application: Hästkullen and Björnlandhöjden in Härnösand, and Kramfors and Timrå
municipalities. The agreement also covers wind power projects in southern Ånge
and in Ljusdal.

“The joint venture includes approximately 270 wind power stations and a total
energy production of more than 2 TWh, corresponding to the electricity required
for warming 100,000 Swedish households,” says Head of SCA Energy, Åke Westberg.

Future investment decisions can be expected by 2014 or 2015 at the earliest. The
project is expected to be in operation by 2016 to 2017 at the earliest.
