Economy meets ecology: Small hydro run-of-river power plants (RPP) ensure
green returns without wind or solar lulls

DWK Deutsche Wasserkraft AG (DWK) is the only listed company in Germany that
pursues a 'pure play' hydropower approach - from the development phase
through the construction phase to the operating phase. Run-of-river power
plants (RPPs) have various advantages over other forms of renewable energy:
1) comparatively constant energy production (24/7) 2) low impact on nature
(i.e. faster approval procedures) 3) maximum energy efficiency/efficiency
and 4) good planning capability. The project phase in particular promises
high returns for RPPs (IRR >21%) and DWK benefits from functioning markets
for operational RPPs and ready-to-build sites. Based on our DCF valuation,
the share has a fair value of EUR5.00.

Market environment: Norway not only offers optimal geographical conditions
for RPPs, but also a stable energy market (with lower price fluctuations
than in neighbouring countries), comparatively fast approval procedures and
a low tax burden (22%). Interconnectors ensure that Norwegian energy
producers can benefit from volatile electricity prices in Europe due to the
growing share of renewable energy (PV/wind). The AI revolution and growing
demand for data centres are driving medium-term energy demand in Europe.
Within renewables, hydropower is the most reliable energy source - also in
terms of returns.

Specific strengths: 1) The partnership with NordVest utilises specific LWKW
expertise and generates uncorrelated returns from AM fees. 2) The current
pre-development pipeline represents a total output of over 260 GWh. 3) DWK
has an experienced management team with an impressive track record
(including 122 deals in Norway alone with a volume of EUR1.1bn)

Challenge: In order to realise existing potential and transfer as much of
the existing pipeline as possible to the construction phase, DWK needs
further financing according to our model calculations.
