Material uncertainty over going concern
The financial statements have not been prepared on a going concern basis. During 2023 the battery storage project in its present design was considered not to be economically viable and the battery storage asset was fully impaired. The company is in the process of being voluntarily dissolved. No adjustments have been required as a result of proparing the financial statements on the basis.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
