OSLO (Reuters) - Shares in Norwegian solar power firm Renewable Energy Corp (REC) (REC.OL: Quote, Profile, Research) soared on their debut on Tuesday, giving one of the world's leaders in exploiting the sun as an alternative to oil a value of $9.3 billion.
Buoyed by prospects for stellar growth, REC shares traded at 115.75 Norwegian crowns ($18.79) per share by 1153 GMT, up 22 percent from an initial public offering (IPO) at 95 crowns which was already at the top of an indicated range.
REC said the offering, Norway's largest since oil group Statoil (STL.OL: Quote, Profile, Research) was listed in 2001 and among the top 10 IPOs in the world so far this year by raising $1.08 billion, was 15 times oversubscribed.
"We've seen very great interest for REC, as for the entire solar energy business," chief Executive Erik Thorsen told a presentation at the Oslo bourse, beside two REC solar panels.
Founded in 1996 and with 1,100 staff, REC calls itself the world's biggest integrated solar power group. It says it is the biggest maker of solar-grade silicon and of multi-crystalline wafers, and among the top 20 makers of solar cells and modules.
Thorsen said other wafer and panel makers were hindered by a lack of access to solar-grade silicon. "We are not dependent on other suppliers to generate growth," he said.
Rivals include SolarWorld (SWVG.DE: Quote, Profile, Research), Q-Cells (QCEG.DE: Quote, Profile, Research), Suntech (STP.N: Quote, Profile, Research), Sunpower (SPWR.O: Quote, Profile, Research) and ErSol (ES6G.DE: Quote, Profile, Research).
Among specialist silicon producers are Hemlock, Wacker Chemie (WCHG.DE: Quote, Profile, Research), with a market capitalization of $6.3 billion, and MEMC Electronic Materials (WFR.N: Quote, Profile, Research), worth $10.2 billion.
"The position of REC is probably the best in the industry with its upstream integration," said Ottar Haugerud, an analyst at SEB Enskilda. "Others will follow but for the next three to five years, REC is probably uniquely placed."
GROWTH OUTLOOK "FORMIDABLE"
"The solar market offers formidable growth prospects," Thorsen said, projecting that solar energy could be the main source of power by 2100, eclipsing fossil fuels and other renewable energies such as wind or hydropower. |
