VOW GREEN METALS Vow Green Metals AS ("Vow Green Metals") and its technology partner,Vow ASA ("Vow"), have today signed an agreement for the delivery of pyrolysis technology to Vow Green Metals' large-scale biocarbon facility at Hønefoss,Norway . The agreement is an addition to the equipment order placed inOctober 2021 , and the new total contract value isNOK 332 million . The agreement is a formalization of previously communicated plans to double the production capacity through a phased development with a large-scale pyrolysis reactor to be used in the second phase. The facility, set to become one ofEurope's largest, will have a total production capacity of more than 20,000 tons of biocarbon and an abatement potential of 100,000 tons of fossil CO2 p.a. The technology from Vow is well-suited for the second phase expansion, as it is largely self-sufficient with power and less dependent on available grid capacity. The phased expansion strengthens the business case of the production facility and accelerates the scaling of a new industry for Vow Green Metals. The equipment included in the change order is expected to be delivered in 2024. The facility will be constructed, owned, and operated by Vow Green Metals, in which Vow holds 50.173.890 shares.
