Kyoto Group AS: Change to the Board of Directors

Oslo, Norway 17 March 2023 - Kyoto Group has been informed by Norsk Hydro that
thermal energy storage is outside of its current strategic growth areas, and its
holding in Kyoto will therefore be considered a financial investment rather than
a strategic one. Consequently, Board member Ivar Valstad will today withdraw
from the Board of Directors of Kyoto Group.
The changed status of Hydro's investment in Kyoto Group does not affect the
ongoing commercial cooperation with Hydro Rein that was announced last year.
"I would like to thank Ivar for his contributions to Kyoto and look forward to
the continued cooperation with Hydro Rein," says Eivind Reiten, Chairman of the
Board of Kyoto Group.
Norsk Hydro, through Hydro Energi Invest AS, holds 1 044 046 shares in Kyoto,
equalling 8.7% of the share capital.
The Board is still in compliance with the articles of association, and no
extraordinary general meeting will be convened in order to supplement the Board.

and wind. Founded in 2016, Kyoto Group is headquartered in Oslo, Norway, and has
subsidiaries in Spain and Denmark. The Kyoto share is listed on Euronext Growth
