NPI: Solid start to the year; projects remain on track
Northland Power Inc.
remaining components and is on track for 2027 commercial operations with costs aligned with
expectations, and we believe Hai Long could reach commercial operations by the end of 2026 if
the turbines are commissioned in a timely manner.
Battery projects also progressing as planned
The 80 MW / 160 MWh Jurassic project in Alberta installed all 39 battery packs and 20
transformers during Q1/26 and remains on track for late 2026 commercial operations with
costs aligned with management's expectations. In Poland, the 100 MW / 400 MWh Kamionka
project secured key permits and management expects the project to commence construction
by mid-2026, and expects the 200 MW / 800 MWh Mieczysławów project to commence
construction in H2/26.
Development pipeline high-grading continues
Northland is actively high-grading its development pipeline, discontinuing projects that don't
meet investment criteria and/or face regulatory headwinds. During Q1/26, the company exited
the 100 MW High Bridge onshore wind project in New York (recognized a $23 million impairment
on capitalized costs, and $9 million provision for the close-out costs) following government
suspension of permit applications and chose not to renew a 990 MW offshore wind permit in
South Korea due to unsatisfactory project economics, while the remaining 1.6 GW South Korea
pipeline remains paused pending regulatory clarity. Going forward, management is focused
on disciplined capital allocation with a "quality over quantity" approach, prioritizing near-
term execution of two Polish battery storage projects (~€200 million, construction starting
imminently), evaluating natural gas development opportunities in Canada driven by strong
