Scatec Solar has published its Sustainability Report for 2015

Oslo, May 3, 2016: Scatec Solar ASA ('SSO') published its 2015 Sustainability
Report today at a Sustainability seminar hosted by the company. Climate and
Environment Minister Mr. Vidar Helgesen addressed the seminar, along with
members from the management team of Scatec Solar including CEO, Raymond Carlsen.

Speaking on ''Norway and the global green transformation'', Minister Helgesen
emphasized the need for diversification from fossil-fuel based economies and
lauded the efforts of entrepreneurial companies that created jobs, reduced
carbon footprint and provided energy, without which economic prosperity cannot
be achieved. He noted the growing worldwide trend of the decoupling of economic
growth with environmental impact.

Job creation, local economic development and strong community relations are key
to successful execution of projects, said CEO Carlsen. The strict implementation
of Health, Safety, Environment and Governance standards ensured that solar
plants built with even previously unemployed workers were completed safely and
on time, even ahead of schedule in some instances, Roar Haugland, EVP Business
and People Development pointed out.

Scatec Solar's operating plants are estimated to avoid more than 700,000 tons of
GHG this year, and this is set to increase to over 2 million tons by 2018 when
more plants become operational. The carbon emissions avoided could actually be
higher given that solar generated electricity now replaces fossil-fuelled power
at peak times in several countries, emphasized Terje Osmundsen, Senior Vice
President, Business Development.

The Sustainability Report is attached to this press release and available for
