All amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated

VICTORIA, OSLO and NEW YORK — British Columbia Investment Management Corporation (“BCI”), Norges Bank Investment Management and Brookfield today announced the launch of Northview Energy (the “Company” or “Northview”), a privately held renewable energy company that will acquire and own a diversified portfolio of contracted, operating renewable assets in the U.S. and Canada.

Northview Energy will be equally funded and owned by the three investors. The Company will acquire a seed portfolio of assets from leading renewable energy companies currently managed by Brookfield, including assets from Deriva Energy, Scout Clean Energy and Urban Grid.

Northview offers a highly de-risked, stable cash flow profile, generating predictable income with strong downside protection, and resilience across market cycles. The seed portfolio is comprised of 22 contracted, high-quality utility scale solar and onshore wind assets in power markets experiencing strong energy demand growth across the U.S. The assets are newly operational and represent approximately 2.3 gigawatts of operating capacity diversified across six power markets. All assets are backed by long-term power purchase agreements with investment grade counterparties, with a weighted average remaining term of approximately 16 years.

BCI, Norges Bank Investment Management and Brookfield will share customary governance rights and a dedicated management team will be appointed to lead the Company.

Northview has also entered into a Framework Agreement for potential future acquisitions of renewable assets from Brookfield-managed portfolio companies in the U.S. and Canada representing up to $1.5 billion of equity capital.

Future acquisitions are expected to focus on de-risked operating assets, including onshore wind, utility scale solar and battery storage, generating stable and predictable cash flows under long-term contracts with investment grade counterparties. Any future acquisitions made by Northview will be subject to the prior approval of BCI, Norges Bank Investment Management and Brookfield, with each party contributing pro rata to fund acquisitions.

Lincoln Webb, Executive Vice President & Global Head, Infrastructure & Renewable Resources at BCI, said: “Northview is a highly strategic addition to our infrastructure portfolio, bringing together de‑risked renewable energy assets, long‑term contracted revenues, and a clear path for growth alongside likeminded, high‑calibre partners. With a diversified portfolio of new solar and wind projects serving an established base of premium clients, the platform is designed to be resilient in an evolving energy landscape.”

Harald von Heyden, Global Head of Energy and Infrastructure at Norges Bank Investment Management, said: “This marks our first investment in North America and an important step in diversifying our renewable energy infrastructure portfolio. We are pleased to partner with Brookfield and BCI as we seek to capture compelling opportunities in one of the world’s largest renewable energy markets.”

Jehangir Vevaina, Chief Investment Officer for Brookfield’s Renewable Power & Transition group, said: “This partnership marks the creation of a scalable platform for Brookfield and our partners. Northview Energy will be an owner of high-quality operating assets that deliver affordable and clean power to the grid and the framework for future acquisitions provides a clear growth pathway for the vehicle to add de-risked, high-quality, cash yielding assets delivering strong returns.”

Subject to the receipt of required approvals and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, Northview Energy is expected to officially launch during the second quarter of 2026 under the ownership of BCI, Norges Bank Investment Management and Brookfield.
