| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| for the year ended 31 May 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Mynydd Windfarm LLP (OC364483) is a Limited Liability Partnership registered in England and Wales. Its registered office is 1 Des Roches Square, Witney, OX28 4BE. |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A "Small entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice, accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. |
| The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise stated. |
| The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£). |
| Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
| The financial statements contain information about Mynydd Windfarm LLP as an individual LLP and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The LLP has taken the option under Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 as applied to LLPs by the Limited Liability Partnerships (Accounts and Audit) (Application of Companies Act 2006) Regulations 2008 not to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover represents the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods rendered during the period, exclusive of Value Added Tax, derived from the generation of electricity. |
| In the case of 'Brown' energy and revenue on Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs), revenue is recognised in the month that it is generated. In the case of Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGOs), revenue is recognised when it falls due. |
| Insurance income |
| Insurance income is recognised when the insurance claim has been approved and can be reliably ascertained. Insurance income is included within turnover. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Cost represents purchase price together with any incidental costs of acquisition. Finance costs are included in the cost of tangible assets when they are directly attributable to the construction of tangible fixed assets. |
| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset, net of anticipated disposal proceeds, over its estimated useful economic life. Depreciation is charged at the following rates: |
| Plant and machinery | - | Over the lease term |
| Decommissioning costs | - | Over remaining lease term |
| The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date. |
| Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are |
| recognised in profit or loss. |
| Impairment of non-financial assets |
| At each balance sheet date non-financial assets not carried at fair value are assessed to determine whether there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. If there is such an indication, the recoverable amount of the asset is compared to the carrying amount of the asset. |
| The recoverable amount of the asset is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Value in use is defined as the present value of the future cash flows before interest and tax obtainable as a result of the asset’s (or asset’s cash generating unit’s) continued use. These cash flows are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that represents the current market risk-free rate and the risks inherent in the asset. |

| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued |
| for the year ended 31 May 2025 |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| If the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated to be lower than the carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account, unless the asset has been revalued when the amount is recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation. Thereafter any excess is recognised in profit or loss. |
| If an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the revised carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortisation) had no impairment loss been recognised in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account. |
| Investments in subsidiaries |
| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost less any provision for impairment. |
| Financial instruments |
| The LLP has chosen to adopt the Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments. |
| (i) Financial assets |
| Basic financial assets, including other debtors, current asset investments and cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. |
| Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| (ii) Financial liabilities |
| Basic financial liabilities, including trade creditors and other creditors are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. |
| Derivatives, including interest rate swaps, are not basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recorded at fair value on the date the derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in the profit and loss account in finance costs or finance income as appropriate. |
| Members' loans (being repayable on demand), trade debtors and trade creditors are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. |
| Operating leases |
| Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profits on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
| Members' participation rights |
| Members' participation rights are the rights of a member against the LLP that arise under the member's agreement (for example, in respect of amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed, remuneration and profits). |
| Amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed by members, for example members' capital, are classed as equity if the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment to members. If the LLP does not have such an unconditional right, such amounts are classified as liabilities. |
| Profits are divided automatically in accordance to the members agreement and therefore such profits are classed as an expense through the profit and loss rather than an appropriation of equity. |
| The losses of the LLP shall, with effect from commencement date, be borne by the LLP and not allocated to the Members. The members shall procure that all losses of the LLP are debited to a retained loss account. |
| All amounts due to the members that are classified as liabilities are presented in the balance sheet within 'Loans and other debt due to members' and are charged to profit and loss account within 'Members' remuneration charged as an expense. Amounts due to members that are classified as equity are shown in the balance sheet within 'Members' other interests'. Other reserves is comprised of a retained loss account. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Taxation |
| The taxation payable on the LLP's profits is the liability of each member during the year. Consequently, neither the LLP nor related deferred taxation are accounted for in the financial statements. |
| Provisions |
| Provision is made for the net present value of the estimated future decommissioning costs at the end of the operating life of the wind farm. The provision is calculated using estimated costs of decommissioning, and these estimates have been arrived at by consideration of the expected costs of contracts to remove the installed plant. The estimates are discounted at a rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. A corresponding asset is recognised and included within the wind farm assets and is depreciated over the lease term. The estimated future cost of decommissioning obligations are regularly reviewed and adjusted as appropriate for new circumstances or changes in law or technology. |
| Current asset investments |
| Current asset investments includes short-term deposits held with banks, with original maturities of more than three months. |
| Cash and cash equivalents |
| Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. |
| Critical accounting estimates and assumptions |
| The LLP makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below. |
| (i) Fair value of derivatives |
| The members measure derivatives at fair value, which is determined using valuation techniques that utilise observable inputs. The key assumptions used in valuing the interest rate swaps are the 6 month SONIA rates. |
| (ii) Provisions |
| Provision is made for asset decommissioning obligations. These provisions require management's best estimate of the costs that will be incurred based on legislative and contractual requirements. In addition, the timing of the cash flows, inflation and the discount rates used to establish the net present value of the obligations require management's judgement. |
| (iii) Impairment of tangible fixed assets |
| Annually, the members consider whether tangible fixed assets are impaired. Where an indication of impairment is identified, the estimation of the recoverable value requires an estimation of the future cash flows from the tangible fixed asset and also the selection of appropriate discount rates in order to calculate the net present value of those cash flows. |
| (iv) Carrying value of investments |
| The company makes an estimate of the holding value of investments. When assessing impairment of investments, management consider factors including but not limited to the cash flows expected to arise from the investments and suitable discount rates in order to calculate present values. |
| 3. | EMPLOYEE INFORMATION |
| The average number of employees during the year was NIL (2024 - NIL). |
