Syns det er ganske spennende tid akkurat no.

Både Magnora og Evolar søker etter folk for tiden.

Det er Q1 om ca 2 uker og vi må kunne forvente positive børsmeldinger kanskje før Q1 mtp kva Sneve nevnte tidligere i år, at man forventet god news flow fram mot sommeren.

Trur sjølv Helios eller onshore/offshore lisens i Baltikum kan være gode alternativ.

Her går kursen en vei…

[Syriax]

Ja det virker noget rart på meg hvertfall.

Har gjennomgått rapporten nettopp og kan ikkje sjå kvifor kursen i dag skulle falle slik den gjorde.
Syns på generelt grunnlag at heile fallet fra 32 kr virker å være ein overreaksjon.

Men triggere er det mange av og guidingen er god så eg sitter meget godt.

Har lastet opp litt mer for å få ned snittet, og tror den blir fin å ha med et lengre perspektiv.

CLARKSON PLATOU:
Swedish thin-film start-up Exeger raises money at $860m valuation, positive for Magnora’s Evolar - Exeger, a Swedish thin-film player developing integrated solar cells for consumer products raised $38m of capital earlier this month at a valuation of $860m (NOK 7.2bn), illustrating the potential for lofty valuations in solar tech. Exeger plans to fund a new solar cell factory in Sweden. There are a number of parallels to Magnora’s (MGN NO, Buy) Evolar, also a Swedish player in the emerging thin-film space, and we view the transaction as a relevant example of value potential for Evolar as it progresses towards commercialization. Exeger is targeting the consumer market, with solar headphones and a solar-powered bike helmet, though it is expected with broaden its target markets over time. Evolar however targets the upstream solar industry, with its Perovskite solar cell printed directly on the cover glass of conventional solar panels. This additional Perovskite layer adds only 3-5% to the cost of the total solar panel, but it can increase power production by over 20%. Evolar is expected to demonstrate its efficiency later this year with certification and commercial agreements to follow. Though the target markets are different, there are clear parallels from technology, commercial maturity and geographic perspectives, we argue. For background on Evolar’s technology, see our Power Friday from March. In our valuation of Magnora, we value Evolar at NOK 9.1/share with a 24% WACC to reflects its venture characteristics. However, our discount rate is expected to fall, increasing valuation, as Evolar meets key milestones in the coming 6-12 months. For illustrative purposes, a decrease in WACC to from 24% to 12% would lift our valuation of Magnora’s stake in Evolar to NOK 40/share, including the exercise of options, 87% above Magnora’s current share price.

Magnora ASA: Update from portfolio company Evolar AB

28 May 2021 – Swedish solar cell startup Evolar and its cutting-edge photovoltaic technology are set to revolutionise the solar panel industry with state-of-the-art tandem solar cells.

A stroll past the solar cell production line at Evolar’s headquarters in Uppsala, Sweden may not reveal much to the casual observer.
…

Vis børsmeldingen

But it’s clear that the mase of stainless steel, glass, and conveyor belts that weaves its way around the cavernous facility is doing something special.

“This is where the magic happens,” Evolar Co-Founder and CTO Olle Lundberg says with a smile.
In his hand is a piece of glass with a captivating orange tint that has the potential to turn the solar industry on its head.

It’s a top cell featuring a nanometre-thin layer of perovskite that can be combined together with a conventional cell to form a tandem solar cell using Evolar’s unique evaporation technology. And that ultrathin layer is set to have a big impact on solar cell manufacturing.

Perovskite’s structure allows solar cells to better utilise the high-energy end of the spectrum, making it perfect for low-cost and efficient photovoltaics – and an ideal choice for the top cell in tandem solar cells.

Higher efficiency, same cost
And contrary to popular belief, perovskite tandem cell technology is ready to enter a solar panel market that has stagnated at cells offering little more than 20 percent efficiency.

Indeed, combining solar cells with Evolar’s photovoltaic technology increases cell efficiency by 25 percent compared to conventional cells.
“Our perovskite tandem cells offer much higher efficiency for the same per-watt manufacturing cost,” says Evolar CEO Mats Ljunggren.

“Now is the time to invest in tandem solar cells. There’s no doubt this is where the market is heading.”
Ljunggren’s view is shared by renowned solar researcher Anders Hagfelt, Vice Chancellor of Uppsala University and a Scientific Advisor to Evolar.
“Perovskite technology is ripe for commercialisation,” says Hagfelt, who also holds a world record in perovskite solar cell efficiency.

“I expect to see several solar cell manufacturers using this technology within a few years.”
And with decades of solar industry experience, Ljunggren and his team at Evolar know more than most when it comes to commercialising solar innovations.

After all, they are the same research team that previously led Solibro, a solar technology company which grew out of the same Uppsala University thin-film solar cell research cluster that spawned Evolar.

Experts in tandem solar cells
At Solibro, the team successfully commercialised another thin-film solar cell manufacturing process, scaling it from the lab into a global company with industrial scale production and hundreds of employees before it was acquired by Q-Cells in 2006.

“We’ve run - and won - the race to commercialise thin-film solar tech once before,” explains Evolar CTO Lundberg.
Lundberg was instrumental in scaling Solibro’s technology and has led the development of the thin-film evaporation solution that powers Evolar’s PV Power Booster production line.

“Evolar’s thin-film tandem cells are based on perovskite rather than CIGS. But much of the underlying manufacturing process is the same,” he explains.

The company’s previous thin-film expertise and strong in-house R&D capacity leaves it well positioned to take the next step with perovskite.

“We have the experience, the technology, and the techniques for installing commercially viable thin-film production lines at any solar cell manufacturing plant,” says Lundberg.

Early-mover advantage
The Evolar team received confirmation of their upbeat assessment of the promise of perovskite tandem cells in November 2020 when Norwegian renewables investor Magnora decided to take a major stake in the company.

“The Perovskite opportunity represents a strategic inflection point for the solar industry, regular businesses, and consumers with efficiency rates possibly leaping at a time when EU and other governments are requiring more green energy,” Magnora CEO Erik Sneve said at the time.

The investment gives Evolar the runway it needs to increase throughput at its pilot production line and establish itself in the growing market for solar cell production.

“We can soon offer a turn-key solution that will allow manufacturers to be producing perovskite cells within 12 to 18 months of signing,” says Evolar CEO Ljunggren.

“Manufacturers that choose work with us will have a huge early-mover advantage. Together we can revolutionise the industry by making solar more competitive and profitable.”.

Jeg skjønte ikke den meldingen der. Kom det fram noe nytt?

[Syriax]

Litt rar melding i grunn ja. Dette ble lagt ut på Evolar heimeside tidligere på dagen, som ett intervju.
Syns jo ikkje dette burde meldes over børs da dette ikkje er kursdrivende men heller delt på heimesiden/sosiale medier.

Men man må kunne anta at Evolar er særs nært gjennombrudd som inkluderer sertifisering av teknologi og kommersiell avtale® siden Magnora pusher mye Evolar-nytt gjennom flere kanaler no.

Vi kan vel kanskje anta Magnora melder bruk av opsjon i Evolar kommende uka.

Magnora ASA: Increases ownership in portfolio company Evolar AB

31 May 2021 – Renewable energy development company Magnora ASA is increasing its ownership in Evolar AB (Evolar) to 40.7 percent.

“Magnora is pleased to increase its shareholding in Evolar, and we believe the investment can deliver attractive returns to our shareholders and make a positive impact on society,” says Torstein Sanness, Executive Chairman of Magnora.
…

Vis børsmeldingen

Evolar has a unique Perovskite deposition technology which will allow solar cell, module, and glass manufacturers to install a turn-key solution to increase cell efficiency significantly with a limited cost increase. The Evolar technology and product development is led by Chief Scientific Officer, Professor Lars Stolt, and CTO Dr. Olle Lundberg, who have several decades’ experience from research and industrialisation of thin film technologies.

The Evolar team holds several world records within CIGS based thin film solar cells already and is utilizing its knowledge to ensure that Perovskite boosted conventional solar cells will be made with the same speed, quality and uniformity as CIGS based modules.

Magnora announced its first investment in Evolar on 16th of November 2021, with a 28.44% stake in the company. Today Magnora is pleased to announce that Evolar has reached all milestones from the original business plan and Magnora has decided to call the first of three options to increase its shareholding in the company to 40.7%. When (and if) all options have been exercised, Magnora will own 63.5% of Evolar AB.

Magnora will use its existing cash holding for the acquisition. The strike price was set late last summer. The share price is approximately equal for all options and similar to the original acquisition price last year. Magnora has cash at hand to exercise all remaining options based on the current business plan.

The Perovskite opportunity represents a strategic inflection point for the solar industry, regular businesses, and consumers with efficiency rates leaping at a time where society are looking for sustainable ways to make green energy concludes CEO of Magnora Erik Sneve.

“Our perovskite tandem cells offer much higher efficiency for about the same per-watt manufacturing cost,” says Evolar CEO Mats Ljunggren. “Now is the time to invest in tandem solar cells. There’s no doubt this is where the market is heading.”

Ljunggren’s view is shared by renowned solar researcher Anders Hagfelt, Vice Chancellor of Uppsala University and a Scientific Advisor to Evolar. “Perovskite technology is ripe for commercialization,” says Hagfelt, who also holds a world record in perovskite solar cell efficiency. “I expect to see several solar cell manufacturers using this technology within a few years.”
