American Marconi Wireless News - Revolve Announces Completion of Major Interconnection Milestone on 49.6MW Primus Wind Project in the U.S

"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.

Revolve's portfolio includes the following:

• Operating Assets: 11MW (net) of operating assets under long term power purchase agreements across Canada and Mexico covering wind, solar, battery storage and hydro generation;

• Under Construction: a 3MW CHP project and a 450kWp rooftop solar project that are both under construction and expected to be operational later this year; and

• Development: a diverse portfolio of utility scale development projects across the US, Canada and Mexico with a combined capacity of over 3,000MWs as well as a 140MW+ distributed generation portfolio that is under development.

Revolve has an accomplished management team with a demonstrated track record of taking projects from "greenfield" through to "ready to build" status and successfully concluding project sales to large operators of utility-scale renewable energy projects. To-date, Revolve has developed and sold over 1,550MW of projects.

Going forward, Revolve is targeting 5,000MW of utility-scale projects under development in the US, Canada and Mexico, and in parallel is rapidly growing its portfolio of revenue-generating DG assets.

Non-IFRS Measures

This press release refers to certain non-IFRS measures including Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"). Non-IFRS measures and industry metrics do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These measures are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. The term EBITDA consists of net loss or gain and excludes interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The most directly comparable measure to EBITDA calculated in accordance with IFRS is net gain or net loss The term EBITDA margin consists of the percentage of net loss or gain and excludes interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. These measures, have limitations, and are provided in addition to, and not as an alternative for, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP (including the notes), included in our filings on SEDAR+ at sedarplus.ca and posted on our website.

Financial Projections

The Company's financial projections are inherently speculative and may prove to be inaccurate. Any financial projections provided in this press release have been prepared in good faith based upon the estimates and assumptions considered reasonable by management. However, projections are no more than estimates of possible events and should not be relied upon to predict the results that the Company may attain. Future oriented financial information in this press release includes statements with respect to forecasted revenues and EBITDA that are expected to be generated by the Primus Wind Project. There is a risk that the assumptions related to these revenue and EBITDA forecasts may not be met and that the Primus Wind Project will not meet the conditions to start construction. The projections are based upon several estimates and assumptions and have not been examined, reviewed or compiled by independent accountants or other third-party experts, including assumptions with respect to the anticipated expenses and future revenues from the Project. These assumptions may vary from the actual results. Accordingly, there is no assurance that future events will correspond to management's assumptions for the Primus Wind Project. Any variations of actual results from projections related to the Primus Wind Project may be material and adverse. Future-oriented financial information and financial outlooks, as with forward-looking information generally, are, without limitation, based on the reasonable assumptions of the Company and management as at the date hereof. Our actual financial position and results of operations and the Primus Wind Project may differ materially from management's current expectations and, as a result, our revenue, profitability, EBITDA may differ materially from any revenue, and profitability profiles provided in this press release. Such information is presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be an indication of our actual financial position or results of operations.

Revolve does not provide reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures as Revolve is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or number of various events that have not yet occurred, are out of Revolve's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, and that would impact the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. For these same reasons, Revolve is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.
