FOR INVESTORS

Low risk and high value for society, the environment and the climate

Predictable and virtually maintenance free

A solar park combined with battery energy storage is a future-proof investment. Solar irradiation varies only marginally from year to year, the technology is robust, and battery storage makes it possible to store electricity and sell it when prices are higher.

Revenue from solar power production is typically a few percent above the average market price, as solar generation aligns well with periods of high electricity demand during the day. Thanks to the simplicity and reliability of the technology, maintenance costs are relatively low.

Battery storage systems can also be developed as standalone facilities. These can be strategically located within the power grid to store surplus electricity and help balance variations in production and demand, thereby strengthening grid stability and flexibility.

We also develop data centers, which are an important part of the digital infrastructure and require a stable and long-term energy supply. By combining data centers with local renewable energy production, they can contribute to more efficient and sustainable energy use while strengthening regional digital capacity.

Fast deployment

The electrification of society is increasing electricity consumption. With solar parks and battery storage, we can help meet this demand while phasing out fossil fuels.

At Helios, we continuously refine our process for enabling more solar parks, battery storage systems, and data centers to contribute more quickly to addressing the challenges brought by the much-needed electrification of our society.

Biodiversity

We also highlight the environmental benefits. Our projects can support the local environment by creating conditions for increased biodiversity. Already at an early stage of the permitting process, we develop a plan for how we can best utilize the conditions to benefit the local environment within and around the project area.

Predictable electricity market

In Sweden and Finland, Helios’ main markets, there is a well-developed investment infrastructure that has evolved over many years, largely thanks to the extensive expansion of wind power. The well-established electricity market, including through Nord Pool, contributes to high predictability and transparency for investors.

Both solar energy and battery storage benefit from this stable market. Battery storage enables the storage of surplus electricity from solar and wind power and its sale when demand and prices are higher, thereby strengthening revenue potential. Battery storage can also be deployed both as part of solar parks and as standalone facilities, providing flexibility in how the energy system can be balanced and optimized.

Data centers are an expanding part of the digital infrastructure and require a stable and long-term energy supply. In combination with local renewable energy production, they can contribute to a more integrated and sustainable energy system.

The ambitious goals for increased electrification and reduced carbon emissions in the transport and industrial sectors also create conditions for a continued positive electricity price market in both Sweden and Finland.

A reliable partner

Helios has a strong team and a proven ability to deliver results. We are a pure-play developer of renewable energy, and our employees and management have extensive and long-standing experience from the energy sector – particularly within wind power.

Since solar and wind power share many similarities in both processes and development frameworks, we benefit greatly from our established working methods. This applies across the entire value chain – from stakeholder consultations and permitting processes to regulatory engagement and procurement of EPC contracts.

With strong expertise in project management, environmental permitting, grid infrastructure, as well as mergers and acquisitions, we understand the importance of identifying risks at an early stage and actively managing them throughout the project lifecycle.

Our goal is to develop economically attractive projects while ensuring the highest quality at every step and considering all stakeholders throughout the process.

We also offer our financial partners technical and commercial asset management services for their investments in solar energy, battery energy storage and data centers.
