Nocart wins break through contacts for 12,9 MEUR off-grid power plants in Africa

Nocart Oy has won contracts for delivery of three distributed power plants, two
in Malawi and one in Nigeria.

The plants in Malawi are a 2MW Solar–diesel hybrid off-grid solution with 1MWh
energy storage and a 4MW Solar–diesel hybrid off-grid solution with 2MWh energy
storage. The plant in Nigeria is a 1MW off-grid hybrid using solar and sawdust
(multi-fuel CHP plant).

Total value of the deliveries is 12,9 MEUR. In 2015 Nocart revenue is estimated
to be 3,9 MEUR. Cleantech Invest ownership is 20% of Nocart.

Nocart delivers distributed power plants combining solar, wind, bio and other
energy sources as well as energy storage for utility grade electricity
production. The heart of the delivery is Nocart’s proprietary software
controlled PMU (Power Management Unit) that controls the production, storage and
distribution of power. Other components of the power plant are subcontracted
from selected vendors.

Nocart CEO Vesa Korhonen: “We have been working in Africa for two years and have
identified a project pipeline of 400 MEUR worth of high quality potential
projects where we aim to participate during the next five years. These three
signed projects are our first megawatt class deals and we expect this rapid
growth to continue over the coming years.”

Cleantech Invest CEO Alexander Lidgren: “Nocart has quickly established itself
as a technology leader in power management for renewable distributed energy
production and we have great expectations for Nocart to emerge as a market
leader in this rapidly growing area. This fast growing market has recently come
in widespread recognition as its true potential starts to unveil. US Secretary
of State, John Kerry's speech at COP15 in Paris highlighted it well - building
distributed energy generation in off-grid areas may very well be the most
extraordinary market opportunity in the history of humankind.”
