Increases exposure to local grid infrastructure and energy-sharing protocols ahead of a stated 3–5 year IPO ambition.

Illustrative embedded value gap versus current PVW reference valuations: +€0.66m (discount 42.9% vs reference €31.0m).

The illustrative value gaps are calculated against PVW’s current reference valuations. They become economically relevant only if the relevant option or ownership transaction is completed and the reference valuations remain valid.

All purchase options are conditional on the founders contributing the full exercise proceeds to the company as an unconditional shareholder contribution. The capital is used in the business — not as any form of exit for the founders — and solely to strengthen the company's ability to reach its goals.

Shareholder briefUpdated 2026-10-06

An energy-sharing and local-grid infrastructure platform currently operated within the ViaEuropa structure, with a dedicated company planned for 2027.

  • Paying customers

    Paying customers engaged and moving toward large orders.

  • Financing initiatives

    ~USD 285m connected to two projects; USD 5–10m connected to the US expansion.

A

The investment case

“An energy-sharing and local-grid infrastructure platform currently operated within the ViaEuropa structure, with a dedicated company planned for 2027.”

Role in portfolio: Highest-valued holding; protocol-level optionality with a signed option to increase.

Why does it matter?

Grid capacity is the binding constraint on electrification. Sharing locally produced and stored energy inside communities unlocks capacity without waiting for new transmission.

What proof exists?

Paying customers, customers moving toward large orders, ~USD 285m in project financing references and a public municipal anchor in CoAction Lund.

What signals value?

An acquisition approach around SEK 250m was rejected; IPO ambition within ~3–5 years; dedicated company formation in 2027.

What could make it worth 5x–20x?

Becoming the standard coordination layer across housing associations, municipalities and international projects, with recurring platform revenue.

B

Operating reality today

Public accounts show the historical legal-entity position. PVW also reports Board & Management Verified Operating Data where the current commercial reality has moved materially ahead of the latest filed accounts.

Paying customers, large orders in motion, dedicated company 2027

EnergyNet is currently housed within the ViaEuropa / bi-firma structure, where the technology sits. Paying customers are already engaged and moving toward large orders. EnergyNet / ViaEuropa has financing initiatives with customers visible on its website, including references of approximately USD 285m connected to two projects and USD 5–10m connected to the US expansion. A dedicated EnergyNet company is planned for 2027 as the concept scales.

Why the structure matters

EnergyNet is not yet best understood through a standalone public annual report. The economic value sits in the technology, customer demand, the local-grid infrastructure model, financing structures and the future EnergyNet company formation. PVW's option secures a larger position at a SEK 200m basis ahead of that formation.

Commercial momentum

Paying customers engaged; customers moving toward large orders; financing initiatives with customers including ~USD 285m across two projects and USD 5–10m for the US expansion (figures as quoted in USD).

PVW independent analysis

PVW calculations on figures shown elsewhere in this portal (reference values, company budgets, draft accounts, option terms). Simplified and unaudited; targets and budgets are plans, not guarantees.

EnergyNet has already been re-rated from PVW's SEK 100m entry to a SEK 350m reference. The option allows PVW to add 5% at a basis below today's reference.

What can go wrong?

Regulation

Local network and energy-sharing rules can change.

Pilot conversion

Pilots may not convert to paying deployments.

Valuation

Reference value exceeds the last reported approach.

What would invalidate the thesis?

  • Regulation prevents commercial energy sharing.
  • No conversion of pilots to recurring revenue.

Chairman’s memo — why PVW owns it

PVW owns EnergyNet because the coordination layer for local energy may become as foundational as the networks it runs on. PVW's direct stake is small; the signed option to add 5% A-shares at a SEK 200m basis is how PVW intends to make it matter. PVW would exercise on documented commercial traction; it would reconsider if regulation blocks commercial energy sharing.

›Appendix: Original company background
01

Overview

EnergyNet aims to provide infrastructure and protocol functionality for energy sharing — conceptually comparable to how communication protocols enabled the Internet. This is an investment thesis, not a guaranteed outcome.

02

Ownership

PVW ownership: 1%. Early stage · Strategic position. Company value €31.0m, of which €0.31m is attributable to PVW. PVW invested €57,573 at a €8.86m company valuation.

03

Business

A new company associated with ViaEuropa and Jonas Birgersson, built around an energy sharing protocol.

04

Market

Distributed energy and the coordination layer between producers, consumers and the grid.

05

Investment thesis

EnergyNet aims to provide infrastructure and protocol functionality for energy sharing — conceptually comparable to how communication protocols enabled the Internet. This is an investment thesis, not a guaranteed outcome.

06

Value creation

A small position taken early, held for optionality rather than influence. PVW contributes through its network in Swedish energy and by staying close to the people building the company.

07

Management

Associated with ViaEuropa and Jonas Birgersson.

08

Milestones

The relevant milestones are technical: a working protocol, first deployments with real energy flows, and partners willing to build on top of it. None of these are guaranteed.

09

Risks

Early-stage risk, adoption risk, regulatory risk and valuation uncertainty. Outcomes are inherently uncertain.

10

Future opportunities

If a shared protocol layer for energy becomes established, the value sits in the standard rather than in any single installation. That is the reason for holding the position — and the reason it is sized as a small one.
