Star Metro - Revolve Secures US$1.5 million From Project Sale

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / February 18, 2025 / 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 sale of a 3MW combined heat and power (or "CHP") project from its distributed generation portfolio for total cash consideration of US$1.5 million. The combined heat and power generator unit (the "CHP Project") was originally acquired by Revolve in August 2022 as part of the US$1.4m acquisition of Centrica Business Solutions Mexico S.A. de C.V. ("CBS Mexico").

The CBS Mexico portfolio included operational distributed generation projects with a total capacity of 2.85 megawatts ("MW') and the CHP project, which was fully constructed and awaiting final permits and was not operating. The Company has decided to take advantage of an offer from an industrial customer to acquire the CHP Project and to redeploy the capital from the sale into other near-term development opportunities. The Company continues to own and operate the remaining 2.85MW portfolio, selling electricity to a group of industrial customers under long term power purchase agreements. Full details of the CBS Mexico acquisition are available here: https://revolve-renewablepower.com/revolve-acquires-100-of-centrica-business-solutions-with-operating-assets-and-recurring-revenue-stream/

The proceeds from the sale will be reflected as revenues in the Company's Q3 FY2025 financial results.

"The sale of this asset will strengthen Revolve's balance sheet and allow us to advance additional project and corporate initiatives," said CEO Myke Clark. "We regularly assess our assets to determine optimal capital allocation - in the case of this CHP equipment, we took the opportunity to monetize this asset for total proceeds of US$1.5 million and reinvest that capital into higher return near-term opportunities. The original acquisition cost of the CHP Unit, combined with the six operating assets, was US$1.4 million. The sale highlights the ability of the Company to identify highly attractive acquisition opportunities and to generate excellent returns for shareholders."

The solar and battery storage projects acquired from CBS Mexico remain the cornerstone of Revolve's distributed generation ("DG") portfolio and contribute strong cashflows as part of our broader portfolio of operating renewable energy assets. The Company continues to add to this recurring revenue stream through the addition of new DG projects. As announced on January 15, 2025, the 451-kilowatt Colima Solar Project located in Mexico was commissioned and is now operating.
