“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which the directors consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. The principal activity of the Company is the ownership of the electricity transmission network in the Central and Southern Scotland area within the group headed by SPUK ("the SPUK Group"), the Company's intermediate parent company. The Company's cash flows are therefore dependent on the continuation, volume, and pricing of those operations and have been considered as part of the SPUK Group's cash flow forecasts, on which the directors of the SPUK Group have performed an assessment of reasonably possible downsides.”
Significant events
- “Strategic investments of more than £5 billion in transmission projects identified as key enablers to net zero targets.”
- “NESO was formally commissioned by the UK, Scottish and Welsh Governments on 22 October 2024 to develop a Strategic Spatial Energy Plan.”
