DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Geothermal Power Market - Forecasts from 2020 to 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


Global geothermal power market was valued at US$1.403 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.72% over the forecast period to reach a total market size of US$1.649 billion in 2025.

According to latest statistics from the 2019 IRENA report (International Renewables Energy Agency), the contribution of geothermal energy to the global renewable capacity amounts to 13 GW. Mounting concerns among governments and international environmental agencies and organizations related to climate change across the globe have boosted the demand for various renewable energy sources to be used as a substitute of fossil fuels to generate electricity. Moreover, volatility of fossil fuel prices, their limited availability, and rise in greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions are also shifting the demand for electricity generated from renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal. All these factors are adding up to the growth of different renewable energy sectors including solar, wind, and geothermal.

High capacity of geothermal power coupled with its cost-effectiveness is significantly driving the demand for geothermal power across the globe which is bolstering the market growth. However, factors such as high investment required for geothermal power plants and negative impact of geothermal energy on the environment are hampering the growth of geothermal power market. The presence of other viable renewable energy alternatives, especially solar, is also hindering the use of geothermal power to generate electricity.

Rising investments in geothermal energy across different countries will also continue to propel the growth of geothermal power market during the forecast period. In March 2019, the investment firm- Breakthrough Energy Ventures- announced to invest $12.5 million in a geothermal project development company- Baseload Capital. It is a project investment firm which offers capital for the development of geothermal power plants with the use of the technology developed by Climeon, its Swedish parent company. The Philippines-based geothermal company EnergiMiinas has plans to set up two geothermal power plants into operation in Peru by 2026 or 2027 with the investment of US$1 billion in each project. Thrive Renewables has also recently announced its plans to invest around 6.5 million in the first geothermal power plant in the United Kingdom with an aim to supply approximately 3 MW of electricity to National Grid and upto 12 MW of electricity for local use.

Continuous development of technologies to increase the efficiency of geothermal power plants are expected to offer more lucrative opportunity for the market expansion over the next five years. Geothermal funding in the U.S. will increase from $84 million in FY2019 to $110 million in FY2020, representing an increase of 31 per cent. Out of this total funding, $20 million will be used by the Frontier Observatory for Research in Geothermal Energy (FORGE) project which aims to test and evaluate enhanced geothermal systems. Recently, UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) has announced an early-stage investment for seventeen new projects related to offshore and geothermal clean energy innovation. In February 2020, Turkish geothermal player MASPO Energy established a national geothermal research and development center aiming to increase the focus on equipment manufacturing in Turkey so as to reduce its dependency on international support and supply. Eavor Technologies, Inc., a Calgary-based company, is developing a ground-breaking prototype for a closed-loop geothermal system that will allow the generation of renewable energy using the earth's natural heat.

50 Remote Workers Will Be Accepted into the First Cohort of the Program and Receive a Free Round Trip Ticket to Hawai‘i

HONOLULU--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As winter approaches, the State of Hawai‘i announced Movers & Shakas, a new remote work program aimed at individuals – former Hawai‘i residents and those from out-of-state who want to work remotely from the islands. The program incorporates a unique “give and get” approach, seeking those who are passionate about the values of Hawai‘i and who have the skills and willingness to contribute to the local community.



Remote workers interested in joining the first cohort of the program are encouraged to fill out an online application by December 15, 2020; 50 applicants who meet the qualifications will be chosen for the first cohort and will receive a free round-trip ticket to O‘ahu. Subsequent applicants will be accepted to the program on a rolling basis. Hawai‘i currently has the lowest rate per capita of COVID infections in the country, also making it one of the safest places to live and work.

The program was launched through a partnership with the Hawai‘i state government, business leaders, alumni associations at schools and colleges, and founding organizations including the Central Pacific Bank Foundation, Hawai‘i Executive Collaborative, Island Holdings, Inkinen, and FCH Enterprises (parent company of Zippy’s restaurants). These partners developed Movers & Shakas to help provide some relief to Hawai‘i’s tourism industry, a main economic driver for the state that has been impacted due to the pandemic, while also creating a way to increase knowledge resources by connecting local and out-of-state professionals.

“We wanted to help fill the gap from the decrease we’ve experienced in the 7-day visitors to our state,” said Jason Higa, CEO of FCH Enterprises, parent company of Zippy’s, and leader who has spearheaded the program. “Now that many people have the choice to work remotely, there’s an opportunity for former local residents to return home and for out-of-state individuals and families to live and work from Hawai‘i for a longer period of time. We believe this program will attract many former Hawai‘i residents and professionals seeking a safe, warm environment to continue living their normal lives while contributing to the Hawai‘i community.”

About Movers & Shakas

The program will first launch on O‘ahu, with the first 50 qualified applicants receiving a free round-trip to the island. Future applicants will be accepted on a rolling basis and will eventually expand to neighboring islands at a later date. Program participants will receive access to promotions, special program benefits and opportunities to interact with the local community. Participants will also be asked to contribute their skill sets and knowledge to the community and businesses during their time in Hawai‘i.

“Give” Program Elements

Applicants to the program take a “Pledge to Our Keiki”, making a commitment to respect the culture and natural resources of Hawai‘i during their stay. The program also includes a skill match component, wherein Movers & Shakas participants commit several hours a week to a Hawai‘i nonprofit. The participants will apply their expertise to strengthen local communities.

“Get” Program Elements

In return for their volunteer work, Movers & Shakas program participants receive exclusive discounts on month-to-month accommodations, flights, restaurants, attractions and other services they need while living in Hawai‘i. Participants in the program also have access to networking opportunities with Hawai‘i business professionals and with other Movers & Shakas program participants.

Richard Matsui was both born and raised in Hawai‘i but lived away from the islands since graduating from high school. “The pandemic provided an unexpected opportunity for me to leave the San Francisco Bay Area and work remotely from Hawaii,” said Matsui, CEO and founder of kWh analytics, a data analytics and financial services firm for the solar energy industry. “I’m excited by the prospect of Movers & Shakas bringing even more people like me who can help to diversify our local economy.”

"As part of a Hawaii-based non-profit that is focused on getting people working, I am very excited about this program. It encourages people to come back to Hawaiʻi, not as spectators but actively supporting the growth of values rooted in the aloha spirit and making our state and communities stronger,” said John Leong, chief executive officer of KUPU. “By engaging with local non-profits, individuals gain a unique understanding of Hawaiʻi's values, while also adding their skills to positively impact people. Hawaiʻi is a place where those committed to sharing aloha and who have a vision for a better tomorrow can find fertile ground to plant seeds of hope that will make healthier communities and inspire our world in the process."

Other supporting members include Alohilani Resort, Outrigger Hotels and Prince Hotels.

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#GeneratorRentalMarketforOilandGasIndustry--The new generator rental market research for oil and gas industry from Technavio indicates neutral growth in the short term as the business impact of COVID-19 spreads.

"One of the primary growth drivers for this market is the Constant Demand for Oil and Gas,” says a senior analyst for the Industrials industry at Technavio.

Despite the decrease in crude oil prices, there is a rise in demand for oil and gas around the world. This will increase the need for oil and gas production and exploration activities, in turn, boosting the demand for rental generators from the oil and gas industry. The decline of easy oil across the globe will lead to increased investments from the oil and gas companies towards enhancing the efficiency of their exploration activities, which will consequently drive the growth of the market.

As the markets recover Technavio expects the generator rental market size for oil and gas industry to grow by USD 153.87 million during the period 2020-2024.

Generator Rental Market for Oil and Gas Industry Segment Highlights for 2020

  • The generator rental market for oil and gas industry is expected to post a year-over-year growth rate of -2.57%.
  • Technologies such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and fracking vertical drilling consume more power than the regular processes.
  • With the industry adopting more of such technologies, the power consumption has increased. This has resulted in using multiple generators for supplying power to the equipment.
  • Therefore, power-intensive technologies and the easy availability of diesel is driving the use of diesel-powered generators in the oil and gas industry.
  • However, market growth in this segment will be slower than the growth of the market in the gas generator segment.

Regional Analysis

  • 33% of the growth will originate from the MEA region.
  • The increasing number of oil and gas activities will significantly drive generator rental market growth for oil and gas industry in this region over the forecast period.
  • Saudi Arabia and Iran (Islamic Republic of Iran) are the key markets for generator rental for oil and gas industry in MEA. Market growth in this region will be faster than the growth of the market in Europe and North America.

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tellurian Inc. (Tellurian) (NASDAQ: TELL) today named ­­Octávio Simões as President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and Jonathan Gross and Jean Abiteboul as new independent Board members, adding significant strength to an already experienced team.



Mr. Simões was President and CEO of Sempra LNG & Midstream where he was responsible for all liquefied natural gas (LNG) and natural gas midstream activities, including Cameron LNG, a 12 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) liquefaction facility that came onstream with first LNG exports in August 2019. Mr. Simões joined Tellurian as Executive Vice President, LNG Marketing and Business Development. He has engineering degrees from the Georgia Institute of Technology and from the University of Massachusetts – Dartmouth, and is a registered professional engineer.

As independent directors, Jonathan Gross and Jean Abiteboul bring vast upstream and LNG marketing experience to the Board.

Formerly, he was a Senior Vice President of Energy Partners, Ltd., and also worked at Kuwait Energy Company and Cheniere Energy.

He and I together are responsible for 75 percent of the U.S. liquefaction capacity and I am delighted now to have the opportunity to work with him on Driftwood LNG, the next big milestone in U.S. liquefaction. With our Board of Director additions, Jean will bring a unique perspective on the global LNG market, and Jon has a deep understanding of the U.S. upstream industry. We stand at a critical inflection point in the energy sector. The fundamentals are now very supportive of our business model to launch an integrated American global natural gas company at Driftwood.

(“Northern Genesis”) (NYSE: NGA) and the combined entity is expected to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the new ticker symbol “LEV”.
  • Pro forma implied market capitalization of the combined company of $1.9 billion.
  • Transaction includes a $200 million fully committed private placement of common shares in Lion (PIPE).
  • Proceeds will be used to fund Lion’s growth strategy, including the planned expansion of the Company’s U.S. manufacturing capacity, continued development of advanced battery systems, the planned construction of a highly automated battery system assembly factory and other general corporate purposes.
  • Proposed transaction is expected to allow Lion to further solidify its current leadership in all-electric medium and heavy-duty urban vehicles.
  • CEO - Founder Marc Bedard and Chairman Pierre Larochelle will be joined by Northern Genesis’ Ian Robertson and Chris Jarratt on a newly formed board of directors.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. & SAINT-JÉRÔME, Québec--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Lion Electric Company, a leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of all-electric medium and heavy-duty urban vehicles, announced today it intends to combine with Northern Genesis Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: NGA), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company focused on a commitment to sustainability and strong alignment with environmental, social and governance principles. Upon closing of the transaction, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lion will merge with and into Northern Genesis, and Lion is expected to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the new ticker symbol “LEV”.


The transaction is expected to bolster Lion’s market leading position in all-electric medium and heavy-duty urban vehicles by supporting the planned construction of a state-of-the-art vehicle manufacturing facility in the U.S., the continued development of advanced battery systems, the planned construction of a highly automated battery system assembly factory and other general corporate purposes.

“This transaction marks an important milestone in Lion’s continued emergence as a market leader in the design, manufacturing and distribution of purpose-built, all-electric medium and heavy-duty urban vehicles” said Marc Bedard, Lion’s CEO - Founder. “The business combination with Northern Genesis provides us with capital to fund Lion’s strategic initiatives, in addition to valuable expertise from Ian Robertson, Chris Jarratt and the Northern Genesis team.”

Founded in 2008, Lion is an established industry leader in all-electric medium and heavy-duty urban vehicles, with over 300 vehicles currently on the road and an impressive operational track record of over 6 million miles driven. Lion offers seven purpose-built electric truck and bus models available for purchase today and which are being delivered from its existing 2,500 vehicle per year manufacturing facility. With Lion buses on the road today and initial truck deliveries in process, Lion expects to quickly ramp up with 650 truck and bus deliveries planned for 2021. Over its coming four year planning horizon, Lion has identified 6,000 potential vehicle sales, approximately 2/3 trucks and 1/3 buses; the marketing plan is supported by over 300 purchase orders in hand and a growing sales pipeline.

“In forming Northern Genesis, we were focused on engaging with a business whose value proposition is proven by current customers, whose tangible growth prospects will be energized by exposure to the public markets and whose experienced management team fosters a winning culture,” said Ian Robertson, co-founder of Northern Genesis. “Lion surpasses our expectations on all these dimensions and we are confident that it has potential to be a great public company in the emerging decarbonized economy.”

Marc Bedard will continue as CEO - Founder of the combined company, overseeing the Company’s strategic growth initiatives and expansion. He is joined by Lion’s existing executive team which includes Nicolas Brunet, EVP & CFO and Yannick Poulin, COO. The combined company will have a board of directors consisting of nine directors, including Marc Bedard, CEO - Founder, Pierre Larochelle (from Power Sustainable) as Chairman, and five other existing Lion Board members, as well as Ian Robertson and Chris Jarratt, co-founders of Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp (NYSE: AQN), who will join the board effective as of closing.

Transaction Overview

The pro forma implied market capitalization of the combined company is $1.9 billion, at the $10.00 per share PIPE subscription price and assuming no public shareholders of Northern Genesis exercise their redemption rights. The company is expected to receive approximately $500 million of net cash proceeds in connection with the transaction, comprised of $200 million from a PIPE and approximately $320 million of cash held in trust by Northern Genesis assuming no public shareholders of Northern Genesis exercise their redemption rights at closing.

The combined net cash proceeds will be used to fund Lion’s growth strategy, including the planned construction of a state-of-the-art U.S. based vehicle manufacturing facility, the continued development of advanced battery systems, the planned construction of a highly automated battery factory and other general corporate purposes.

The existing shareholders of Lion will continue to hold their equity ownership in the combined company, and in some cases they will increase their equity ownership by participating, together with certain Northern Genesis officers and directors, in the PIPE. Following completion of the transaction, it is expected that Lion’s existing shareholders will hold approximately 70%1 of the combined company’s common equity assuming no redemptions from Northern Genesis’s public stockholders.

The board of directors of Northern Genesis, and the board of directors and the shareholders of Lion, unanimously approved the transaction.

Favourability of marine shipping in Canada remains high, four-in-five view industry positively


VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The invisible strings that tie the globe together have been more evident this year as the COVID-19 pandemic has strained trading networks and challenged the transport of goods. Indeed, seven-in-ten Canadians say they’ve learned more about the supply chain this year as they have dealt with shortages of medicines, personal protective equipment, hand sanitizer, and even household goods like toilet paper.

A new study from the Angus Reid Institute, in partnership with the Clear Seas Centre for Responsible Marine Shipping, casts its focus into the future and finds Canadians looking for the industry to play a major role in the post-pandemic economic recovery, while also continuing to make strides in environmental protection. Two-in-five Canadians say the economic side of this equation is paramount, while one-quarter (23%) say environmental aspects are key. In the middle are the largest number – 37 per cent – who feel that balancing both is the best way to proceed.

The shipping industry heads into another year of likely challenges with positive ratings from most Canadians. Building on what now is a five-year trend, four-in-five residents say they have a favourable view of marine shipping. Further, more than half (54%) say that the industry’s importance has grown over the past 15–20 years in their estimation.

Survey results and full report available here: https://bit.ly/3mecdjJ

More Key Findings:

  • An overwhelming majority of Canadians (92%) continue to view marine shipping as either “very safe” (25%) or “generally safe” (67%)
  • However, confidence in shipping of petroleum products appears to be declining with 45 per cent of Canadians voicing concern – up six points from 2018
  • Younger Canadians lean more heavily toward prioritizing environmental protection than economic growth when it comes to marine shipping. Canadians 35 years of age and older prefer an economic focus
  • When asked to estimate the proportion of goods in their day-to-day lives that rely on marine shipping, half of Canadians underestimate the total
  • Most Canadians remain confident in the rules and regulations governing marine shipping safety in Canada today. Seven-in-ten agree with this, a number that has stayed relatively consistent since 2016

Shipping Confidence Index

In order to better understand the numerous viewpoints on marine shipping in Canada, researchers at the Angus Reid Institute created an index based on variables associated with overall perceptions of the industry, and its role in the economy, international trade, and environmental protection. The Shipping Confidence Index is comprised of three groups: Shipping Supporters, Maritime Moderates, and Cautious Critics. Read the full report to learn how viewpoints vary according to age and region.

Register for Briefing

Details about the study’s findings will be provided at a press briefing on November 30, 2020 at 10:00 AM (PST)-1:00 PM (EST). To attend the briefing register here: https://bit.ly/2IVjje8

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "European Wind Turbine Market Outlook Update Q3 2020" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.


Following the easing of restrictions on wind turbine supply chain across Europe in Q3 2020, the outlook for the wind sector will depend on the effectiveness of national and EU recovery plans.

The European wind industry is the global leader in the wind turbine market, realising projects in more than 80 countries worldwide. As such, its companies rely on both European and global supply chains for raw materials and components. However, the outbreak of COVID-19 posed a risk to investments made in wind energy segment in Europe facing higher risk of delay or even cancellation. In 2019 the wind energy industry invested USD 59.3 bn in Europe, USD 21 bn of which was for the financing of new wind energy projects which are likely to be affected due to the crisis. Additionally, the uncertainty over the evolution of the COVID-19 crisis will also likely increase the cost of finance as banks will be less willing to lend as they are concerned about liquidity and corporate finance. In contrary, many European countries like Germany, Netherlands, Lithuania and Greece have confirmed they will stick exactly to their 2020 auction schedules. Also, France and Germany are setting out the Recovery Plan, made climate policy commitments such as: support for a higher 2030 emissions reduction target which shall put the wind turbine segment in Europe on track to bring in efficiency in supply chain.

NFE is a financial measure not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) of the United States. It is a measure of earnings based on eliminating timing differences surrounding the recognition of certain gains or losses, net of applicable tax adjustments, to effectively match the earnings effects of the economic hedges with the physical sale of natural gas, Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs) and foreign currency contracts. NFE/net financial loss eliminates the impact of volatility to GAAP earnings associated with unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments in the current period. For further discussion of this financial measure, please see the explanation below under “Non-GAAP Financial Information.”

GAAP requires us, during the interim periods, to estimate our annual effective tax rate and use this rate to calculate the year-to-date tax provision. We also determine an annual estimated effective tax rate for NFE purposes and calculate a quarterly tax adjustment based on the differences between our forecasted net income and our forecasted NFE for the fiscal year.

A table detailing net financial (loss) earnings for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2020, and 2019, is provided below.

COVID-19 Impact Update:

NJR has not made any significant changes to capital programs due to COVID-19. NJNG operations and delivery of natural gas to its approximately 558,000 customers has largely been unaffected by the ongoing pandemic. NJR will continue to closely monitor the potential impacts of the pandemic and will adjust its plan accordingly to ensure the delivery of essential services to customers, while maintaining the safety and health of its employees, customers and communities.

Analyst Day Information:

In a separate announcement, the Company today provided its fiscal 2021 guidance and long-term financial targets. NJR will host a virtual Analyst Day today at 8:30 a.m. ET and the senior leadership team will discuss the Company's strategic value proposition and long-term financial growth targets, as well as its year-end fiscal 2020 earnings results. The video webcast of the virtual Analyst Day, including a copy of the presentation, and a question and answer session, will be broadcast over the internet and can be accessed at https://investor.njresources.com/events-and-presentations/default.aspx. For those unable to listen to the webcast, an archived version will be available at the same location.

Regulated Business Update:

New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG)

NJNG reported fiscal 2020 NFE of $126.9 million, compared to NFE of $78.1 million during fiscal 2019. Fourth-quarter net financial loss was $15.3 million, compared with net financial loss of $18.4 million during the same period in fiscal 2019. The increase in both periods was due primarily to increased base rates from NJNG's rate case settlement in November 2019 and lower operating and maintenance (O&M) expenses.

Customer Growth:

  • NJNG added 8,349 new customers during fiscal 2020, compared with 9,711 in fiscal 2019. The lower customer growth was due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Infrastructure Update:

  • NJNG's Infrastructure Investment Program (IIP) is a five-year, $150 million program approved by the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities (BPU) on October 28, 2020. The IIP consists of a series of infrastructure projects designed to support the enhanced safety and reliability of NJNG's natural gas distribution system. The original filing included an information technology (IT) upgrade component, which NJNG voluntarily withdrew and will seek to recover associated costs in future rate case proceedings.
  • The Southern Reliability Link (SRL) will diversify supply to our customers by providing a new intrastate feed into the southern end of NJNG’s distribution system. SRL began construction in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and is projected to be placed in service in 2021. The total cost of SRL is expected to be in the range of $250 million to $270 million. Construction continues on SRL with over 80 percent of the project complete.
    • NJNG has submitted its response to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) regarding the suspension of permits for certain sections of SRL's construction. Following a comprehensive review process of our drilling plans for the remainder of the project, the DEP reinstated our permits, allowing us to fully proceed with our construction plans.

  • Safety Acceleration and Facilities Enhancement (SAFE) II is the five-year, $158 million program approved by the BPU in September 2016 to replace the remaining unprotected bare steel main and associated services in NJNG’s distribution system. In fiscal 2020, NJNG invested $56.5 million to replace 70 miles of unprotected bare steel main and services.
  • The New Jersey Reinvestment in System Enhancement (NJ RISE) program is a $102.5 million investment program comprised of six projects related to storm hardening and mitigation. During the fourth-quarter of fiscal 2020, construction began on a new regulator station, the final portion of the North Seaside Reinforcement project. Construction is expected to be completed by the end of calendar year 2020.
  • The SAFE II and NJ RISE programs are eligible for annual rate increases. On March 31, 2020, NJNG filed its annual petition with the BPU, requesting a rate increase of approximately $7.4 million for the recovery of the related capital costs through June 30, 2020. NJNG updated the filing in July 2020 to reflect the actual results through June 30, 2020, reducing the rate increase to $7.1 million. The BPU approved the filing and the new rates became effective on October 1, 2020.

BGSS Incentive Programs:

BGSS incentive programs contributed $9.5 million to utility gross margin in fiscal 2020, compared with $8.4 million during the same period in fiscal 2019. The higher results were due to improved margins in off-system sales and storage incentive programs, which were partially offset by a decrease in capacity release volume.

Energy-Efficiency Programs:

The SAVEGREEN Project®, NJNG’s energy-efficiency program, invested $30.8 million during fiscal 2020 to help customers with energy-efficiency upgrades for their homes and businesses. NJNG recovered $10.3 million of its SAVEGREEN investment in fiscal 2020.

  • On September 25, 2020, NJNG filed a petition with the BPU for an additional three-year SAVEGREEN program consisting of approximately $127 million of direct investment, $113 million in financing options, and $23 million in O&M expenses, effective July 1, 2021.

Storage and Transportation

Storage and Transportation, formerly known as the Midstream reporting segment, reported fiscal 2020 NFE of $18.3 million, compared with $14.7 million during fiscal 2019. Fourth-quarter NFE were $7.4 million, compared with $3.5 million during the same period in fiscal 2019. The increase in NFE for both periods was due to incremental operating income from Leaf River and Adelphia Gateway, partially offset by increased O&M and interest expense related to the acquisition and operations of those assets.

Infrastructure Updates:

  • Adelphia Gateway - On October 5, 2020, Adelphia Gateway received a Partial Notice to Proceed from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to begin construction. The construction includes the conversion of 50 miles of the existing 84-mile pipeline from oil to natural gas to bring much-needed supply to constrained markets in the Philadelphia region.
  • PennEast - On January 30, 2020, PennEast filed with FERC an abbreviated application for amendment of its Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity, requesting a phased-in approach to the PennEast project. The first phase of the project would include construction of the pipeline in Pennsylvania with interconnections within the state. Also, on January 30, 2020, FERC issued a declaratory order related to the ruling by the Third Circuit, supporting PennEast.
    • On February 18, 2020, PennEast filed a petition for writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court seeking to overturn the September 10, 2019 Third Circuit decision vacating the New Jersey Federal District Court's December 13, 2018 condemnation order blocking pipeline construction.

    • On June 29, 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court invited the U.S. Solicitor General to express his views regarding the issues presented in the petition for writ of certiorari.

    • On August 3, 2020, FERC issued a positive environmental assessment for Phase I of the project, finding no significant environmental impact.

Unregulated Businesses Update:

Clean Energy Ventures (CEV)

CEV reported fiscal 2020 NFE of $53.0 million, compared with NFE of $77.5 million in fiscal 2019. The decrease in NFE was due to fewer Investment Tax Credits (ITCs) recognized on projects placed in service and the absence of contributions from the wind portfolio, which was sold during fiscal 2019. Fourth-quarter NFE were $55.8 million, compared with NFE of $52.7 million during the same period in fiscal 2019. The increase in NFE was due to higher SREC sales.

Solar Investment Update:

  • In fiscal 2020, CEV placed eight commercial solar projects into service and acquired one operational asset, adding 60 MWs, increasing CEV's total installed capacity to over 350 MW.
  • The Sunlight Advantage®, CEV's residential solar leasing program, added 481 customers in fiscal 2020 and now serves over 8,600 residential and small-midsize commercial customers in New Jersey.

Energy Services

Energy Services reported fiscal 2020 net financial loss of $(7.9) million, compared to NFE of $2.9 million for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in NFE for fiscal 2020 was due primarily to challenging market conditions created by unusually warm weather on the U.S. east coast last winter compounded by operational issues on a key interstate pipeline. Fourth-quarter NFE was $1.6 million, compared with a net financial loss of $(10.7) million during the same period last year. The increase in NFE for the fourth quarter was due to lower demand charges and increased natural gas pricing volatility leading to more market opportunities compared to the same period last year.

Home Services and Other Operations

Home Services and Other Operations reported fiscal 2020 NFE of $5.8 million compared to NFE of $1.9 million for the same period in fiscal 2019. Fourth-quarter NFE were $5.1 million, compared with net financial loss of $1.0 million during the same period in fiscal 2019. The increase in both periods was due to lower O&M expenses and an income tax benefit associated with the revaluation of certain deferred state tax liabilities.

Effective Tax Rate:

NJR’s annual effective tax rate increased to (3.7) percent in fiscal 2020 from (28.7) percent in fiscal 2019. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, NJR recognized $37.1 million related to tax credits, net of deferred taxes, compared with $56.8 million during the same period last year.

Capital Expenditures and Cash Flows:

NJR is committed to maintaining a strong financial profile, while continuing to invest capital in regulated and unregulated energy projects.

  • During fiscal 2020, capital expenditures were $499.1 million, of which $333.9 million were related to NJNG, compared with capital expenditures of $531.4 million, of which $372.1 million were related to NJNG, during the same period of fiscal 2019.
  • During fiscal 2020, cash flows from operations were $213.5 million, compared with $194.1 million during the same period of fiscal 2019. The increase was primarily due to increased margin at NJNG from increased base rates.

Forward-Looking Statements:

This earnings release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. New Jersey Resources Corporation (NJR) cautions readers that the assumptions forming the basis for forward-looking statements include many factors that are beyond NJR’s ability to control or estimate precisely, such as estimates of future market conditions and the behavior of other market participants. Words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “should” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements and such forward-looking statements are made based upon management’s current expectations, assumptions and beliefs as of this date concerning future developments and their potential effect upon NJR. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in accordance with management’s expectations, assumptions and beliefs or that the effect of future developments on NJR will be those anticipated by management. Forward-looking statements in this earnings release include, but are not limited to, certain statements regarding NJR’s NFE guidance for fiscal 2021 through fiscal 2024, as well as NJR’s long-term NFEPS growth rate, dividend growth, forecasted contribution of business segments to NJR’s NFE from fiscal 2021 through fiscal 2024, customer growth at NJNG, future NJR and NJNG capital expenditures, infrastructure programs and investments such as SRL, NJ RISE II and SAFE II, CEV’s future capital investment target, NJR's environmental sustainability and clean energy goals, emissions reduction strategies, initiatives and targets and our investments in infrastructure, renewables and emerging technologies, the ability to construct and operate the Adelphia Gateway Pipeline project, and construct SRL and the PennEast pipeline project, as well as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on NJR's liquidity, business operations, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Additional information and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from NJR’s expectations are contained in NJR’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including NJR’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, recent Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other SEC filings, which are available at the SEC’s web site, http://www.sec.gov. Information included in this earnings release is representative as of today only and while NJR periodically reassesses material trends and uncertainties affecting NJR's results of operations and financial condition in connection with its preparation of management's discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition contained in its Quarterly and Annual Reports filed with the SEC, NJR does not, by including this statement, assume any obligation to review or revise any particular forward-looking statement referenced herein in light of future events.

Non-GAAP Financial Information:

This earnings release includes the non-GAAP financial measures NFE/net financial loss, NFE per basic share, financial margin and utility gross margin. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP can be found below. As an indicator of NJR’s operating performance, these measures should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or operating revenues as determined in accordance with GAAP. This information has been provided pursuant to the requirements of SEC Regulation G.

NFE/net financial loss and financial margin exclude unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments related to the company’s unregulated subsidiaries and certain realized gains and losses on derivative instruments related to natural gas that has been placed into storage at Energy Services, net of applicable tax adjustments as described below. Volatility associated with the change in value of these financial instruments and physical commodity reported on the income statement in the current period. In order to manage its business, NJR views its results without the impacts of the unrealized gains and losses, and certain realized gains and losses, caused by changes in value of these financial instruments and physical commodity contracts prior to the completion of the planned transaction because it shows changes in value currently instead of when the planned transaction ultimately is settled. An annual estimated effective tax rate is calculated for NFE purposes and any necessary quarterly tax adjustment is applied to CEV, as such the adjustment is related to tax credits generated by CEV.

NJNG’s utility gross margin represents the results of revenues less natural gas costs, sales, expenses and other taxes and regulatory rider expenses, which are key components of NJR’s operations. Natural gas costs, sales, expenses and other taxes and regulatory rider expenses are passed through to customers and, therefore, have no effect on utility gross margin. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures to other GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of NJR’s performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are more reflective of NJR’s business model, provide transparency to investors and enable period-to-period comparability of financial performance. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP can be found below. For a full discussion of NJR’s non-GAAP financial measures, please see NJR’s 2020 Form 10-K, Item 7.

Outlines Valuable Infrastructure Investments Across Complementary Businesses Driving NJR’s Leadership in Clean Energy Future

Presents Financial Growth Targets, Including Higher Long-Term NFE Growth Rate from FY 2022, and Increased Dividend Growth Rate

Company Management to Discuss Further Details During Investor Webcast Today at 8:30 AM ET

WALL, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--New Jersey Resources (NYSE: NJR) (the “company” or “NJR”) today will host a virtual 2020 Analyst Day to provide an update on the Company’s strategic plan and financial growth targets, including:


  • 6-10% long-term annual growth in consolidated net financial earnings per share (NFEPS), a non-GAAP financial measure, beginning in fiscal 2022;
  • 6-10% long-term annual dividend growth;
  • Approximately 20% growth in annual Cash Flows from Operations (CFFO) from fiscal 2020 to fiscal 2024; and
  • Approximately 11% rate base Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) between fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2024 at New Jersey Natural Gas, the company’s regulated utility and largest business segment.

With our talented and capable team, disciplined execution and strong position in the clean energy transition, we are poised to drive long-term value for our shareowners,” said Steve Westhoven, President and CEO of New Jersey Resources. “As we move ahead, we will focus on growth at our regulated utility, NJNG, and Clean Energy Ventures, CEV. NJNG is as strong as it has ever been, with an approximately 11% rate base CAGR expected between fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2024. CEV will continue to drive growth as we expand and invest beyond New Jersey, action supported by an approximate doubling of our rate of investment in solar initiatives in four years. At the same time, we are taking a number of strategic steps to deliver more predictable and stable net financial earnings across our other complementary businesses. We remain committed to growing our dividend and, following a reset of NFE in fiscal 2021, are projecting an increase in our long-term NFEPS growth rate.”

Complementary Businesses Across NJR Platform

  • NJNG: Driving an approximately 11% rate base CAGR through strategic infrastructure investments and accelerated infrastructure recovery. NFE contributions from NJNG are expected to be in the 60-70% range on an ongoing basis.
  • CEV: Investing $850 million over four years to take advantage of the robust solar market. CEV will benefit from NJR’s expertise in public policy and its commitment to further climate goals in New Jersey. To better position CEV for accelerated growth, NJR is pursuing regional market opportunities in the Northeastern U.S., one of the fastest growing solar markets in the country, due to public policy mandates and aggressive clean energy targets.
  • Storage and Transportation (formerly known as Midstream): Generating stable, fee-based revenue through a portfolio of low-risk infrastructure investments and from long-term capacity commitments with high-quality customers. Storage and Transportation serves constrained or growing end-use markets and offers organic growth opportunities through optimization and expansion. While NJR remains committed to PennEast, any financial contributions from the project are not included in the Company’s long-term NFEPS targets.
  • Energy Services: Focusing on higher fee-based revenue and benefiting from strong customer relationships and a deep understanding of wholesale energy markets rooted in its natural gas supply management expertise. In years of strong performance, Energy Services has contributed excess cash flows as growth capital for NJR, strengthening the balance sheet and lessening the need for debt and equity issuances. There will be minimal reliance on Energy Services to achieve the Company’s NFEPS targets.

Fiscal 2021 NFE Guidance

Included in NJR’s release today is the Company’s NFE guidance for fiscal 2021. Beginning in fiscal 2021, NJR is adopting a change in the accounting policy for investment tax credits and the expected use of tax equity financing for its solar projects. Principally as a result of the accounting policy change, the Company anticipates fiscal 2021 NFE to be in the range of $1.55 to $1.65 per share. There will be no impact to CEV’s cash flows as a result of this accounting change.

Patrick Migliaccio, Senior Vice President and CFO, said, “Consistent with our strategic plan to generate sustainable growth across our businesses, going forward we will change the way NJR accounts for investment tax credits and we expect to implement tax equity financing for our solar projects. While this results in a short-term decline in net financial earnings in fiscal 2021, these changes provide the foundation for increasing our investment in solar and are expected to result in stable net financial earnings from our CEV business. Following the earnings reset in fiscal 2021, we expect approximately 30% year-over-year growth in NFE in fiscal 2022, with a 6-10% long-term growth rate thereafter. With ample liquidity to support our businesses, no meaningful refinancings in the near term and a strong capital structure, NJR is extremely well-positioned for the future.”

The following chart represents NJR’s current expected contributions from its subsidiaries for fiscal 2021:

Company

Expected Fiscal 2021
Net Financial Earnings
Contribution

New Jersey Natural Gas

65 to 72 percent

Clean Energy Ventures

15 to 20 percent

Storage and Transportation (formerly Midstream)

8 to 10 percent

Energy Services

3 to 4 percent

Home Services and Other

0 to 2 percent

In providing fiscal 2021 NFE guidance, management is aware there could be differences between reported GAAP earnings and NFE due to matters such as, but not limited to, the positions of our energy-related derivatives. Management is not able to reasonably estimate the aggregate impact or significance of these items on reported earnings and, therefore, is not able to provide a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP equivalent for its operating earnings guidance without unreasonable efforts. For further discussion of NFE, please see the explanation below under “Non-GAAP Financial Information.”

Webcast Information

The video webcast of the virtual 2020 Analyst Day, including a copy of the presentation, and a question and answer session, will be broadcast via the internet today at 8:30 a.m. Eastern time and can be accessed at https://investor.njresources.com/events-and-presentations/default.aspx.
