Holiday Parks Power Supply Exclusive Joint Venture
& Exercise of Warrants
Mast Energy Developments PLC is pleased to announce that it has signed a
comprehensive head of terms for an exclusive joint venture to develop,
construct, and operate power supply solutions for holiday parks, the
highlights and details of which are outlined below.
Joint Venture Key Details:
· The UK has around 4,700 holiday parks, most of which require power
and heat supply security outside of the national grid in order to provide
uninterrupted services to its customers throughout the year;
· The MED management team have identified this gap in the market and
formulated a new additional growth strategy to benefit from this opportunity,
which will complement its existing strategies, being i) acquiring existing
sites needing limited overhaul, ii) new-builds, and iii) AI datacentre power
supply;
· MED will partner with holiday park developers and owners to provide
the holiday park with power and heat supply security, by way of a private wire
PPA;
· The benefit to the holiday park is power and heat supply security, at
a lower tariff compared to the retail market, and the benefit to MED is two
income streams (power and heat) via a long-term PPA at a fixed tariff and
attractive margin;
· In addition to the PPA revenues, the power supply site can also
partake in the Capacity Market for additional guaranteed income;
· To bolster this new strategy, MED signed an exclusive joint venture
("JV") head of terms with Avanti-E Ltd ("Avanti"), a UK company with strong
connections and a proven track-record in the UK energy industry (see below for
more details about Avanti);
· Under the JV, MED and Avanti will exclusively work together to
develop, construct, and operate power supply solutions and applications for
holiday parks;
· The JV will establish MED as an early mover and power supplier in the
holiday park industry, to gain maximum benefit;
· The short-term goal is to develop c. 25 MW of holiday park power
supply projects, and scale to 100 MW in medium term;
· MED and Avanti are already in discussions with one of the UK's
largest holiday park developers and owners to supply power and heat to its
holiday parks, with a first holiday park needing c. 5 MW already identified;
· This new strategy will complement and is expected to significantly
grow MED's existing portfolio and the Company's goal to build a portfolio of
300+ MW; and
· MED and Avanti intend to enter in a binding definitive JV agreement
shortly.
Pieter Krügel, MED CEO, commented: "MED have identified the need of holiday
parks for power and heat supply security as an ideal opportunity to expand
MED's business model and complement our existing strategies to build a
portfolio of 300+ MW. We are thrilled to join forces with Avanti-E in rolling
out our new strategy, as they are an ideal JV partner with their strong
connections and a proven track-record in the energy industry in the UK.
We are planning to progress this new strategy at some pace, and look forward
to updating the market with further positive developments over the coming
weeks."
