Cindrigo signs Framework Agreement with geothermal industrial giant Kaishan

Cindrigo与地热行业巨头开山签署框架协议

Cindrigo (LSE:CINH) is pleased to announce that, as part of its ongoing expansion strategy, it has signed a Framework Agreement with Kaishan Renewable Energy Development PTE LTD, a Singapore-registered company and member of the Kaishan Group (“Kaishan”) (collectively the “Parties”) to develop, finance, build and operate geothermal power plants (the “Framework Agreement”).

Cindrigo（伦敦证券交易所简称：CINH）近期披露，作为其扩建业务战略的一部分，其与开山集团（“开山”）位于新加坡的成员公司Kaishan Renewable Energy Development PTE LTD签署了关于地热项目开发、融资、建设和运营的框架协议。

The first project targeted under the Framework Agreement is the 20 MW project led by Cindrigo development companies on the Slatina 3 geothermal license in Croatia. Kaishan is the preferred turnkey Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractor and Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contractor. Kaishan may also facilitate 70% of this project’s finance required subject to financial review.

框架协议第一个目标项目是Cindrigo开发公司主导的位于克罗地亚的Slatina3准证，规划为20MW。开山是优选交钥匙工程、采购、建设（EPC）承包商及运维承包商。在财务情况满意的情况下，开山也考虑为这个项目提供70%的融资至项目完成。

Under the Framework Agreement, Kaishan has been granted Preferred Partner and Vendor status for each of Cindrigo’s Projects in Europe.  Each Project will be managed by separate Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) and may be subject to separate agreements within the intent of the Framework Agreement. Services provided by Kaishan may include full “turnkey” EPC or parts thereof, including design and engineering, equipment supply and financing.

根据框架协议，Cindrigo在欧洲的项目给予开山优选合伙人及供应商的地位。每个项目通过各自的特别目的管理，在框架协议基础上可签署独立的协议。开山提供的服务包括完整“交钥匙”EPC或者其部分工作，例如设计、工程、设备供应、融资等。

The strategic long-term cooperation approach adopted demonstrates an efficient, cost-effective and best-practice approach to developing the geothermal sectors where Cindrigo operates, first in Croatia.  This will extend to Cindrigo projects in priority jurisdictions in Europe and globally as the foundation of a deliberate rollout strategy for Cindrigo’s target portfolio of 1000 MW.

双方的长期战略合作展现了一个高效、高性价比、优质的地热开发模式，而Cindrigo会在克罗地亚走出第一步。这会让Cindrigo在欧洲优先发展的国家及全球发展业务，成为其目标1000MW项目组合的可靠基础。

The Parties are now exchanging technical data on Slatina 3 and are committed to the aim of reaching Final EPC Agreement for Slatina 3 within Q2 2023.

各方目前交换Slatina 3的技术数据，致力于在二季度完成Slatina 3的EPC合同。

Cao Kejian, Chairman of the Kaishan Group, said: “We see Cindrigo as a strong partner in the expansion of geothermal in new markets, initially in Croatia and the Pannonian Basin with other markets to follow. We strongly believe that together we can provide mutual support  and strengthen expansion in a very attractive market”

Lars Guldstrand, CEO of Cindrigo, said: “We are excited to be working with the Kaishan Group, a world-leader in geothermal. Kaishan has a long history of supplying equipment in Europe, the United States and globally and also operates a large portfolio of its own power plants. Like Cindrigo, Kaishan recognises the business opportunity that unlocking the huge potential of geothermal power in Europe offers.

Cindrigo CEO Lars Guldstrand表示：“我们很高兴能与开山集团合作，开山集团在全世界地热开发占据领先地位。开山集团在欧洲、美国和全球范围内拥有悠久的设备供应历史，同时也经营着自己的大型电站项目组合。与Cindrigo一样，开山也认识到在欧洲解锁地热发电的巨大潜力所带来的商业机会。
