Significant events
- “The Group's operating business developed positively in 2024, performing largely in line with expectations and building on the positive sustainable earnings achieved prior to the European energy crisis, leading to further improvement of the Group's retained earnings position.”
- “The Hydrogen (H2) accelerator has been integrated with the sales business, outlining that the Group's aim is to help customers achieve climate neutrality. This reorganisation makes it possible to actively shape market development in the field of hydrogen and to consolidate the Group's position as one of the leading providers of hydrogen solutions going forwards. In the first few months after the launch, significant partnerships were established and new projects were initiated globally.”
- “The Group made significant progress in facilitating the Energy Transition through procuring increased volumes of green certificates and launching new metals trading capabilities. The Group also contracted new high-quality carbon offsets to offset future emissions.”
- “The LNG portfolio delivered an exceptional performance, achieving a record 132 cargo deliveries during the year (2023: 84 cargo deliveries), far outperforming pre-crisis levels. Supported by seven operational vessels, the LNG portfolio generated substantial profits by managing global supply and demand dynamics, optimising freight deliveries, leveraging contract flexibility, and capitalising on favorable arbitrage opportunities. The Group strengthened its European supply capabilities by expanding regasification capacities and achieved a notable milestone with the successful delivery of its first LNG cargo to a German LNG regasification terminal, providing direct access to the German gas pipeline network.”
- “The retail business has seen gas volumes and number of sites supplied increase by 10.7% and 6.2% respectively in 2024.”
- “The retail business UK gas market share increased to 22.0% in the year (2023: 19.6%).”
- “Certain events occurred during 2022 and 2023 which had an effect on the Group and Company performance, which are considered unlikely to recur, and which were outside of the Group's control. These events were caused by the war in Ukraine, the sanctions applied by Western Governments and in particular the counter-sanctions put in place by the Russian Government. In the current period, the residual impact of these events is not judged to be material, so no exceptional items have been identified.”
