Scatec exits Vietnam with sale of 39-MW wind plant

The transaction will close within the first half of 2025.

Norwegian power producer Scatec ASA is set to exit the Vietnamese market after agreeing to sell its 39-megawatt (MW) Dam Nai Wind farm and the associated operating company in the country to Sustainable Asia Renewable Assets, a utility-scale renewable energy platform of the SUSI Asia Energy Transition Fund.

In a statement, Scatec said it will receive an upfront consideration of $27m for its 100% equity stake at completion, with potential for additional earn-out payments of up to $13m that are subject to certain conditions being fulfilled prior to May 2026.

“We have decided to exit Vietnam after operating the Dam Nai wind farm since the acquisition of SN Power in 2021. We are satisfied with the agreed price and the sale is in line with our strategy to optimise our portfolio and focus on markets where we see further attractive growth opportunities,” said Scatec CEO Terje Pilskog.

Dam Nai Wind farm’s net debt was around $28m at the end of the second quarter 2024, totaling a transaction value of around $68m. It has generated around $14m in cash for Scatec since its acquisition in 2021.

The deal is expected to close in early 2025, pending approvals.

Scatec estimates exit costs, including capitalised development expenses, of approximately $4.5m which will be recognised in the third quarter 2024 results.

Global clean energy tech market to hit $2t by 2035

This is fuelled by investments as countries aim to enhance energy security.The global clean energy technology market is projected to grow from $700b in 2023 to over $2t by 2035, nearing the scale of the crude oil market, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).This growth is fuelled by significant investments in clean technology manufacturing as countries aim to enhance energy security, maintain economic competitiveness, and cut emissions. Investment is concentrated in regions with established positions in clean energy, particularly China, the European Union, the UK, and increasingly, India.Whilst the US, EU, and India have taken measures to support their clean energy sectors, China is expected to remain the world's manufacturing hub. By 2035, China's clean technology exports are forecasted to exceed $340b—comparable to projected oil export revenues from Saudi Arabia and the UAE.Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa contribute less than 5% of global cleantech production value, yet the IEA suggests that these areas still hold opportunities within the clean energy economy. Developing economies, for instance, could leverage competitive advantages to advance in the value chain beyond resource extraction.The IEA said Southeast Asia could become one of the most cost-effective regions for producing polysilicon and wafers for solar panels over the next decade.
