This is a preliminary, non-binding announcement with no financial commitment. Traders should monitor for the outcome of the feasibility study and any subsequent Board investment decision before assigning material value. The $4M EBITDA target is small relative to the company's market cap (~$129M) and should not be extrapolated without validation.

Executive Summary
VivoPower is progressing a feasibility study for a battery energy storage system (BESS) at its 41.5 MW Mo i Rana data center in Norway, targeting up to ~$4M in incremental annualized EBITDA from participation in three additional Nordic reserve markets (FCR-N, expanded FCR-D, FFR). The study is preliminary, forward-looking, and subject to numerous contingencies including external validation, board approval, tenant consultation, and regulatory approvals, with no investment decision made yet.
Key Facts
- VivoPower announced a formal technical and commercial feasibility study for BESS integration at its 41.5 MW Mo i Rana data center in Northern Norway on July 6, 2026.
- Targeted incremental annualized EBITDA is up to approximately USD$4 million from BESS-enabled participation in additional Nordic reserve products (FCR-N, expanded FCR-D, FFR).
- The feasibility study is subject to external validation, prequalification with Statnett, capital availability, and market conditions.
- Any final investment decision requires completion of the study, Board approval, tenant consultation, and applicable Norwegian regulatory and grid-connection approvals.
- The site's day-ahead power prices in Norway's NO4 bidding zone averaged approximately USD 0.009/kWh in 2025, compared to USD 0.05-0.077/kWh in southern Norway and continental Europe.
Financial Impact
Targeted incremental annualized EBITDA of up to ~$4M is pre-study, unvalidated, and contingent on feasibility outcomes, market conditions, and capital availability.
Risk Factors
- Feasibility study may not validate the targeted EBITDA or any benefits.
- Failure to obtain Board approval, tenant consent, or Norwegian regulatory/grid-connection approvals.
- Inability to prequalify for Nordic reserve products or changes in market clearing prices/design.
- Inability to source capital or asset-level financing on acceptable terms or at all.
