Orrön Energy AB (“Orrön Energy” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce further progress across its greenfield platform, strengthening the value and maturity of its project portfolio. Following the conclusion of the UK grid reform process, the Company has secured grid connections for six large-scale projects with an estimated combined capacity of 2.9 GW. This achievement comes alongside further progress in the Company’s German platform, where three projects totalling approximately 250 MW have obtained municipal approval.
The grid connections in the UK have been secured as part of the grid reform, enabling the connection of six large-scale projects, of which three are solar energy projects with a combined estimated capacity of 1.8 GW, and three are data centre projects with a combined estimated capacity of 1.1 GW. Binding grid offers and additional details around grid connection dates are expected to be received during the third quarter of 2026. With both land and grid secured, the projects are at the ready-to-permit stage, and the Company will seek to evaluate divestment options once the final grid connection agreements have been issued.
The Company continues to build momentum in its German platform, where three solar energy projects with a combined capacity of approximately 250 MW have secured approvals from the local municipalities, including one project that formed part of the recent portfolio sale. The Company has furthermore advanced a significant pipeline of large-scale battery projects with land secured and expects to receive grid confirmation early this year. This follows the recent sales processes, where 310 MW of projects have been sold for a total consideration of MEUR 18, subject to reaching key development milestones. The Company continues to mature a growing pipeline of additional projects from this platform and will evaluate further opportunities to crystalise value from its development assets.
Daniel Fitzgerald, CEO of Orrön Energy commented;
“I am very pleased with the strong progress and results coming out of our greenfield platforms in the UK and Germany. Securing the Gate 2 grid connections in the UK enables us to move ahead with some of the discussions that were temporarily paused due to the now concluded grid reform process. Meanwhile, the German platform has reached a level of maturity where project monetisation is underway. With an average sales price of around 55 TEUR per MW during 2025, combined with the scale of our portfolio I am confident that this will deliver significant value for us moving forward.
