Through the company Engene Solar AS, Greenstat and his partner Skagerak Kraft are investing NOK 44 million in a solar power plant in Lågendalen. The power plant is the third in Norway, and the first in the NO2 power price area. It is also the first to be installed on "grey areas", such as commercial areas that are no longer in use. When completed, the power plant will produce electricity equivalent to the annual consumption of 325 households.

The plant is not only Vestfold's first, but also one of the first solar cell plants to be built in Norway that requires a licence. The NVE licence was granted in November 2023.

With an installed capacity of 5.8 MWp and an estimated annual production of 6.1 GWh, it is a moderate size compared to the solar power plants that the companies will be built in the years to come. The Norwegian Parliament has adopted a goal of building 8 TWh by 2030, and the south-eastern part of Norway stands out as an area with good solar resources in this country.

The construction time for the Engene solar power plant is estimated at c. eight months. The intention is for the solar power plant to start supplying electricity to the grid by December 2024. In addition to these projects, more opportunities are being worked on both in Norway and internationally.
