Financing, Stock Offerings (IPO)

Subtitle: Following the end of the offering period today, the Board
of Directors of Scan Energy A/S and HSBC Trinkaus & Burkhardt, the
Global Co-ordinator and Sole Bookrunner, have decided to suspend the
planned initial public offering of Scan Energy shares and the planned
introduction to the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

Dybvad (euro adhoc) - Due to the recent events in the financial
markets and investor hesitation on the German IPO market the company
does not at this point in time wish to pursue an IPO and a subsequent
listing.

Scan Energy will now evaluate other options for the company to pursue
its business plan.

"We have a solid business with steady cash flow from 514 MW power
plants in operation across Europe. Our existing wind and solar assets
are all project-financed for the long term," said Karsten Olsen, CEO
of Scan Energy A/S. "We would have liked to speed up our growth
opportunities through this IPO, but we will now pursue other
options."
