BETHESDA, Md.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Enviva Partners, LP (NYSE: EVA) (the “Partnership” or “we”) today
announced the execution of a new take-or-pay off-take contract to supply
wood pellets to Lynemouth Power Limited (“Lynemouth Power”), a
subsidiary of Energetický a průmyslový holding (EPH). Lynemouth Power
plans to convert its 420 megawatt coal facility in the UK to wood pellet
fuel by the end of 2017. Deliveries under this contract are expected to
commence in the third quarter of 2017, ramp to full supply of 800,000
metric tons per year in 2018, and continue through the first quarter of
2027. The contract volumes are denominated in U.S. Dollars except
160,000 metric tons per year denominated in British Pound Sterling. This
transaction significantly extends the weighted average remaining term of
the Partnership’s off-take contracts to 8.0 years as of June 1, 2016.

“Our strategy is to fully contract our production capacity, and this
contract provides additional length and diversification to our sales
book,” said John Keppler, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are
proud that a world-class energy group like EPH selected Enviva to supply
more than half of the wood pellets required annually by its Lynemouth
facility, further reinforcing our position as a preferred supplier to
top-tier biomass projects.”
