VivoPower Launches Lease Bidding after Receiving Strong Interest from AI Operators for 41.5MW Norway Data Center

On April 23, 2026, VivoPower PLC (the “Company” or “VivoPower”), today announced that following the completion of its acquisition of the Mo i Rana data center on April 21, 2026, the Company has launched a formal competitive RFP selection process to evaluate prospective tenants. VivoPower has fielded strong inbound inquiries from AI neocloud operators and hyperscalers. The selection process is consistent with the Company’s Power-to-X strategy to ensure the highest and best use case for its power infrastructure assets.

Tenant Selection Process Overview

The process will be conducted by VivoPower’s management team with support from external partner advisors. It is designed to identify tenants whose commercial terms, operational requirements, and strategic fit best serve the interests of VivoPower shareholders.

The process will evaluate candidates based on the following criteria:

Asset Overview

Mo i Rana is a fully operational 41.5MW data center facility located in the Mo i Rana industrial precinct in northern Norway. The site is powered by 100% renewable hydroelectric energy at a cost below US$0.035/kWh — among the lowest power costs for data centers in Europe. An additional 40MW of expansion capacity is subject to regulatory approval, which would bring the total site capacity to over 80MW.

The facility’s Nordic cold-climate location supports efficient cooling economics, and its existing energized infrastructure enables tenant deployment in months rather than the 18 to 36 months typically required for greenfield development.

This Report on Form 6-K, is hereby incorporated by reference into the Company’s Registration Statements on Form S-8 (File Nos. 333-227810, 333-251546, 333-268720, 333-273520) and Form F-3 (File No. 333-292437).
