Return to growth for Vergnet's Energy business in 2014

Annual revenues for Vergnet Group amounted to €41.5 million in 2014 and break down as follows:
- €6.1 million in Water revenues generated by Group subsidiary, Vergnet Hydro, which was sold to a consortium of investors on 7 August 2014.
- €35.4 million in Energy revenues.
Revenues posted by the Energy business include €3 million linked to the last deliveries for the final phase of the Ashegoda wind farm in Ethiopia (€20.5 million in 2013). Excluding Ashegoda, Energy revenues climbed 13% from €28.4 million in 2013 to €32.4 million in 2014 with the delivery and commissioning of a large number of cont racts signed in 2014, notably:
- the installation and commissioning of a hybrid wind power plant in Samoa,
- the turnkey installation and commissioning of 4 wind turbines in the USA.

Outlook for 2015: Continued growth

The redeployment of Vergnet's Energy business should continue in 2015 , with the commercialisation of new MP wind turbines and hybrid energy (solar or wind) solutions reinforcing the Group's return to profitability. New contracts signed at the end of 2014 and start of
2015 will have a gradual impact on the financial year and include:
- the sale of 4 MP machines in Chad which should be accompanied by a renewable energies hybrid solution that reflects Vergnet's expertise and experience as a lead contractor,
- the commissioning of the first hybrid plant in Kiffa in Mauritius where the global budget of
€14 million includes €6.4 million for Vergnet as lead manager for an industr y consortium,
- the installation of a solar hybrid plant in Kiribati (Oceania ).
These new projects and Vergnet's ongoing commercial success will enable the Group to continue to build up an order book to underpin its lasting recovery .
