- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, the directors have considered all available information about the future, which is at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Given that the company entered into a long term offtake agreement ("F.PPPA") which provides secure revenues from power sales, the directors' base case assessment, which is based on board-approved budgets, is that the company is expected to continue to generate operating cash flows sufficient to cover non-discretionary investing and financing cash flows, and as a result to maintain sufficient liquidity, over the forecast period. There are no indications of any events that would result in significant one-off payments of unforecast liabilities for the company. As part of their assessment the directors have considered the principal risks and uncertainties of the business disclosed in the relevant section of the Strategic Report. Whilst potentially severe but plausible downside scenarios have been identified the directors have concluded that, based on the mitigations put in place, these risks and uncertainties do not impact the going concern conclusion. Based on the directors' assessment described above the directors are of the opinion that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing the company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 and therefore the going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements.”

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.
