Etrion Announces Update on Solar Projects in Chile with 99 MW of Advanced Pipeline

January 14, 2015, Geneva, Switzerland – Etrion Corporation (“Etrion” or the
“Company”) (TSX: ETX / OMX: ETX), a solar independent power producer, announces
an update to its solar photovoltaic projects in Chile.

Management Comments

Marco A. Northland, Etrion’s Chief Executive Officer, commented: “I am very
pleased with the significant progress our Chilean team has achieved to date in
construction and development. Etrion is one of the early movers in solar power
generation in Chile and today has 70 MW operational and more than 99 MW under
development.”

Mr. Northland continued, “Chile is one of the most attractive solar markets in
the world. Chile has very high solar irradiation, an investment grade credit
rating, a deregulated electricity sector with contracts denominated in US
dollars, significant energy demand from the mining sector and high wholesale
electricity prices. This combination of factors makes Chile one of the first
solar markets in the world to reach grid parity, where solar is competitive with
traditional sources of power generation without the need for government
subsidies.”

Chilean Project in Operation (70 MW)

As previously announced, Etrion completed construction of the 70 megawatt (“MW”)
Salvador solar park in northern Chile (“Project Salvador”) in November 2014,
several months ahead of schedule and under budget. Project Salvador is owned
initially 70 percent by Etrion, 20 percent by Total S.A. (CAC: TOTF.PA) and 10
percent by a local developer. The solar park was built by SunPower Corporation
(“SunPower”) (NASDAQ: SPWR) and has a long-term, fixed‐price operation and
maintenance agreement with SunPower. In 2014, Project Salvador produced
approximately 6.7 million kilowatt-hours (“kWh”) of electricity during
commissioning and testing. Project Salvador is expected to enter full
operational phase by February 2015.

Project Salvador will initially operate on a merchant basis where the
electricity produced will be sold on the spot market and delivered to the
Sistema Interconectado Central (“SIC”) electricity network. In order to secure a
portion of the revenues, Project Salvador expects to sign a long-term power
purchase agreement (“PPA”) with an investment grade off-taker in Q1-2015.
Project Salvador recently signed a binding letter of intent with the off-taker
to outline the commercial terms of the PPA for approximately 35 percent of
Project Salvador’s production. The PPA is expected to be for 15 years starting
January 1, 2016, at approximately US$0.10 per kWh indexed to the US Consumer
Price Index (“CPI”).

Chilean Advanced Project Development Pipeline (99 MW)

Etrion has an advanced development project pipeline in Chile of four projects
totaling 99 MW outlined below. These projects are owned 100 percent by Etrion
and are expected to have all permits in place to be shovel-ready in Q1-2015.

The Aguas Blancas solar projects in the Antofagasta region include three sites,
2A, 2B and 2C, with a total capacity of 72 MW in the Sistema Interconectado del
Norte Grande (“SING”) electricity network.

Aguas Blancas 2A is a 32 MW site with the land concession decree expected in Q1
-2015. The environmental impact assessment has been received, the
interconnection contract has been agreed and the mining rights have been
secured.

Aguas Blancas 2B is a shovel-ready 24 MW site. The land concession decree has
been signed, the environmental impact assessment has been received and the
mining rights have been secured. The interconnection contract and the PPA with a
mining company are under advanced negotiations.

Aguas Blancas 2C is a 16 MW site with the land concession decree signed. The
environmental impact assessment has been received, the interconnection contract
has been agreed and the mining rights have been secured.

Las Luces is a 27 MW solar project in the Atacama region with one site in the
SIC electricity network. The land concession decree has been signed, the
environmental impact assessment has been received, the interconnection contract
is under advanced negotiations and the PPA negotiations have started.

Etrion should be in a position to start construction of these pipeline projects
once the Company secures PPAs and the necessary non-recourse project financing.
The projects are expected to be operational within twelve months from the date
construction commences. More information about Etrion’s project pipeline is
available in the updated corporate presentation available on the Company’s
website at www.etrion.com.

Etrion plans to finance its projects under development through the most
efficient combination of cash on hand, non-recourse project loans, corporate
debt and/or equity financing.

statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities,
events or developments that Etrion believes, expects or anticipates will or may
occur in the future (including, without limitation, statements relating to the
anticipated timing for Project Salvador to become fully operational, the
anticipated timing and terms of a long-term PPA for Project Salvador with an
investment grade off-taker, the anticipated timing for permitting and
construction of the Company’s Chilean pipeline projects and the Company’s
financing plans for such projects).This forward-looking information reflects the
current expectations or beliefs of Etrion based on information currently
available to it as well as certain assumptions (including that all necessary
financing and regulatory or other approvals will be obtained as and when
required). Forward-looking information is subject to a number of significant

from current expectations include, but are not limited to, the failure to obtain
necessary financing or approvals to complete construction of the solar projects
or to operate them as and when expected, unexpected delays in starting or
completing the construction of the solar projects and resulting delays in the
start of operations and the inability of Etrion to enter into PPAs for its
Chilean projects.

Any forward-looking information speaks only as of the date on which it is made
