Revolve Announces Completion of Major Interconnection Milestone on 49.6MW Primus Wind Project in the U.S

In This Article:

Revolve Renewable Power Corp. (TSXV:REVV)(OTCQB:REVVF) ("Revolve" or the "Company"), a North American owner, operator and developer of renewable energy projects, is pleased to announce the completion of a significant milestone for its 49.6-megawatt ("MW") Primus Wind Project located in Colorado, USA (the "Primus Wind Project"). Specifically, Revolve completed the interconnection process for the Primus Wind Project and has signed an interconnection agreement with Tri-State Generation and Transmission Inc. ("Tri State"). Completion of this milestone paves the way for the Project to complete the remaining permitting works with a target of being "ready to build" (or "RTB") in late 2025.

"The completion of this major interconnection milestone for the Primus Wind Project is significant as we continue to advance this 49.6 MW wind project towards ready to build status in 2025," said CEO Myke Clark. "Our team has also completed the basic engineering works for the Primus Wind Project including finalizing the turbine layout, internal road design and medium voltage network design. Combined with our 20MW/80MWh Vernal Battery Energy Storage System Project, Revolve now has two development projects representing 70 MW of installed capacity in the US with signed interconnection agreements. Both are progressing towards being fully ready to build over the next 12 months. 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year for our US operations and we look forward to updating shareholders on the continued progress of both projects over the coming months."

Primus Wind Project Overview

  • Project Location: the project is located north of Burlington, Colorado in Kit Carson County. Colorado is one of the main wind energy states in the USA. Land lease option agreements have been signed with several landowners for the entire project area. The project site is easily accessed through the existing local road network and is in close proximity to the local transmission network.

  • Project Capacity: 49.6MW wind project consisting of between 11 to 13 wind turbines depending on the final selection of the preferred turbine model and supplier for the project.

  • Energy Resource Assessment: The installation of this mast was completed in September 2022 and the measurement of the wind conditions at the project site is continuing. The Company recently completed a detailed energy resource assessment for the project, which indicated a potential energy output between 165GWh to 185GWh annually confirming the strong wind resource at the project location.

  • Basic Engineering: The Company also recently completed the basic engineering works for the project including finalizing the turbine layout, internal road design, medium voltage (MV) network design and interconnection works. Detailed engineering and the selection of the preferred turbine supplier and construction contractors is expected to occur mid next year.

  • Development Status: The project has been under development since late 2021 and is now considered to be at a late stage of development following completion of the interconnection process. As part of the interconnection process, the Company has secured a US$636,000 surety bond to serve as the performance security deposit required under the Large Generator Interconnection Agreement ("LGIA"). The remaining permitting work to be completed over the coming 6-9 months consists of various environmental studies, a conditional use permit application and the building permit application.

  • Financial Forecast: The project once fully commissioned is expected to generate annualized revenue in the range of US$6m to US$7m and EBITDA of between US$4m to US$5m. Revolve's strategy is to own and operate projects like the Primus Wind Project and will update these forecasts closer to construction commencing and as the commercial arrangements for the sale of electricity from the project are finalized.
