for the Year Ended 31 December 2024

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


The principal activity of the company in the year under review was that of generating electricity through biomass energy production.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Significant judgements and estimates
Management must make judgments, estimates, and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not immediately apparent from other sources. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other relevant factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and assumptions are continuously reviewed. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period of the revision if it affects only that period, or in both the period of the revision and future periods if it affects both current and future periods.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - Straight line over 20 years and Straight line over 15 years

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements.

11. ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY

The controlling party is Sustainable Energy Holdings Limited.

In the opinion of the directors there is no ultimate controlling party, as no individual or group exercises overall control of the parent company.

12. GOING CONCERN

The Directors consider it appropriate to continue preparing the financial statements on a going concern basis.

The Directors are confident that the company will be able to continue trading for at least 12 months from the date the audit report is signed.

This confidence is based on a review of the company's financial position, including projected cash flows and funding requirements. The company has received confirmation of ongoing support from Pula Investments Limited, which has committed to providing suitable facilities to enable trading and support the company's growth plans. Taking this support into account, the Directors are satisfied that the company has sufficient resources to continue operating for the foreseeable future.

During the year, a new management team was appointed to align operations with the group's strategic objectives, enhance performance, and return the business to profitability. The team brings significant turnaround experience, with one Director being an associate member of the Institute for Turnaround (IFT).
The Directors have also confirmed that amounts owed to Group companies will not be demanded in a way that would adversely affect the company's financial position.

In light of these factors, the Directors remain confident in the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
