The number of projects in this area has exceeded all previous years. We are also seeing more projects from industries that we traditionally have not worked with before. In 2015, we contributed financing to projects within both aquaculture and oil and gas. We are seeing the same trend in our other major area, non-residential buildings. We have received a record number of applications for upgrades in existing buildings. The potential here is still vast and we are looking forward to a continued high activity level in this area. Within new buildings, we supported a number of innovative and energy-efficient buildings in 2015 that help develop this market. The most positive development over the past year is the large influx of new energy and climate technology projects. It is clear that more and more market players are starting to see a commercial potential Never before has the interest in energy and climate in investments in green technology. We are seeing more projects in issues been greater in Norway. More and more more sectors than in previous years. Development of technology is essential for triggering renewable and efficient solutions that people are opening their eyes to what Norway enable a low emission society. Norwegian business and industry as a nation needs to do in order to adapt to a can also contribute to reducing global emissions by developing and low emission society. This is also reflected in the exporting such technology. markets Enova works in. Increasingly, companies More energy for the low emission society are seeing the commercial opportunities that lie Enova supported 988 projects in business and industry and the in good and viable energy and climate measures. public sector, and also awarded support to 3 858 energy measures in residential buildings in 2015. The largest projects can be found The trend from 2014 continues, and 2015 was yet within new energy and climate technology. We awarded a NOK another excellent year with regard to the number 380 million funding commitment to the Glencore Nikkelverk in of applications for support of energy and climate Kristiansand for more energy-efficient copper production, and NOK 280 million to Alcoa for a demonstration plant for advanced projects. This is gratifying. We will need more smelting technology. people on our side to face the upcoming challenges. Overall, we awarded NOK 2.6 billion. This will yield a total energy Popular transport measures result of 1.8 TWh. A constructive, hands-on dialogue with the markets is a necessity when it comes to sound management of the Energy Fund. Enova’s 2016 will be yet another important year for Enova.

Continued value creation within the framework of a low emission society will require us to exploit We entered into a new and exciting market in 2015. Starting in our renewable energy resources efficiently, and to make much January, we were tasked with increasing energy efficiency and larger investments in innovation and technology development. reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector. This means that Enova is operating in markets that represent well As more and more people start to use known solutions and to over 90 per cent of overall Norwegian greenhouse gas emissions. develop new ones, a steady increase in the number of organizations We have laid a solid foundation within our new market area for a can reconcile value creation with low emissions.

This helps us and we launched several well-received measures in early autumn. pave the way for a low emission society in partnership with the We would particularly like to point out the maritime sector, which markets.

We also followed up the charging infrastructure strategy that we submitted Nils Kristian Nakstad to the Government before the summer, by awarding funding Chief Executive Officer commitments to 77 new quick-charging stations for electric cars. This is the first step towards a seamless charging infrastructure along Norwegian highways. 3 4 Part II Introduction to the organization and key figures 4 Part II Introduction to the organization and key figures 6 Key figures 2015 7 Management 8 Organization 9 Corporate social responsibility 5 Key figures 2015 In 2015, Enova supported projects with a total energy result of 1.8 TWh through the Energy Fund, distributed among energy efficiency measures, conversion and increased utilization of renewable energy. 20 NEW ENERGY AND CLIMATE TECHNOLOGY 5 GWh 23% In 2015, 54 projects were granted funding commitments from Enova RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS 1 3% In 2015, 198 projects and more than 3800 energy measures in residential buildings were granted 136 GWh support from Enova NON-RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS 2 20% In 2015, 454 projects were granted support 45 GWh from Enova INDUSTRY AND NON-INDUSTRIAL 35% PLANTS AND FACILITIES In 2015, 225 projects were granted support from Enova Did you know that... 1.8 TWh corresponds to the electricity consumption RENEWABLE HEATING of every household in 10% In 2015, 33 projects were granted support 3 Vestfold County. from Enova 47 GWh TRANSPORT 9% In 2015, 24 projects were granted support from Enova Projects distributed according to size in GWh The energy result is distributed < 1 4 723 projects 157 among the markets by per cent.
