EVINY FORNYBAR AS

Overview

Eviny Fornybar AS operates a mature hydropower portfolio of approximately 260 MW in Vestland county, with a clear strategic pivot toward flexible, grid-balancing assets. The company is executing a significant voltage upgrade program at its Steinsland and Nygård facilities to 420 kV, directly integrated with Statnett's new Krossdalen transformer station, while simultaneously developing new pumped-storage projects at Sotabotnen and Børdalen. Three large battery storage reservations totalling 293 MW production and 90 MW consumption at Samnanger further signal a deliberate shift toward flexible energy and grid services.

Strategic Focus

Eviny Fornybar AS is focused exclusively on Vestland county, leveraging its established hydropower base to develop flexible, grid-balancing capacity. The company is upgrading existing hydro assets to 420 kV transmission standards in coordination with Statnett infrastructure investments, while expanding into pumped-storage hydro (Sotabotnen, Børdalen) and large-scale battery storage (293 MW reserved at Samnanger). This positions the company as a key provider of balancing and flexibility services in the NO5 price zone.

Recent Activity

In June 2026, Eviny Fornybar AS filed two new concession applications: one for grid connection infrastructure at Børdalen kraftverk, and another for Sotabotnen kraftverk — a reversible pumped-storage facility enabling combined generation and pumping. Both cases are newly registered and awaiting case handler assignment, indicating the company is actively expanding its pumped-storage development pipeline.
