In November 2017, the company successfully completed issuance of a NOK 750 million corporate green bond, with significantly reduced interest rate, to refinance the bond maturing in 2018.

In December 2017, a 40MW project in Malaysia was secured and added directly to the project backlog. Work has started to secure project finance from commercial banks in Malaysia and capex is estimated to USD 50 million.
