Accounting policies |
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.
The presentation currency is £ sterling.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty and judgements
Decommissioning provisions - At the end lease term, the group are required to reinstate the land occupied to its original state. The Directors take into account the future expected costs of dismantling the solar parks, less any residual value attached to the equipment.
Impairment of operational and solar parks under construction - The Directors review for signs of impairment in relation to the operational and solar parks under construction. The Directors will assess the present value of future expected cashflows against the carrying value of the assoicated assets. No impairment has been recorded in the year.
Revenue recognition
Turnover represents the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the provision of services which fall within the Company’s ordinary activity. Turnover represents amounts recoverable from customers for supply of electricity and is measured at the fair value, based on export meter reads, of consideration received or receivable, stated net of discounts, returns and value added taxes All turnover arose with the United Kingdom.

Tax
Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.
The current corporation tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.
Deferred tax is recognised on all timing differences at the balance sheet date unless indicated below. Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and the results as stated in the profit and loss account and other comprehensive income. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Tangible fixed assets relate to a solar park in construction therefore no depreciation has been provided as the asset is not yet fully commissioned.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
|
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
|
Operational solar parks |
Over the life of the lease on the land they occupy |
|
Solar parks under construction |
Depreciation commences when operational |
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Leases
Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Financial instruments
Classification
• Short term trade and other debtors and creditors;
• Cash balances; and
• Balances with group undertakings.
All financial instruments are classified as basic.
Recognition and measurement
Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and derecognised when in the case of assets, the contractual rights to cash flows from the assets expire or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party, or in the case of liabilities, when the company’s obligations are discharged, expire or are cancelled.
Such instruments are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, after taking account of impairment adjustments.
