H1 2014 : KEY FACTORS
Operating Business Ongoing Activities H1 2014 Results
- Poor wind conditions across Europe
- Low tariffs and no incentives in Spain
- Penalties on non programmable sources (E.g.“minimi
garantiti”, captured price) and on programmable sources (CIP 6)
- Results in line with expectations
- Increasing contribution from the UK due to change of
perimeter (Nutberry - 15MW, full year - and West Browncastle -30 MW, one month)
- Cash generation from operating plants and cash-in from
the “Borea” deal with CII enabled a strong reduction of the Net Financial Position
- According to the Framework Investment Agreement with
CII, FKR is actively in talks for the sale of the minorities in Nutberry and West Browncastle wind farms 2014 Guidance

ACQUISITION OF 51% OF VERUS ENERGY OAK LIMITED 1/2
23
Partnership with Verus Energy Limited: acquisition of 51% of the special purpose project entity, Verus Energy Oak Limited (“VEOL”) that owns the authorization to construct a new plant in Waste to Energy through an advanced technology in West Bromwich (UK). The plant envisages energy recovery through the thermal treatment of RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel: i.e. solid fuel obtained from non-hazardous waste) and uses bubbling type fluid bed stage gasification technology to do so. Given the technological solution adopted, defined as “Advanced Conversion Technology” in the United Kingdom, the production of electricity by the plant will benefit from a favourable incentive regime as compared with other waste-to-energy production technologies.
24
Location: West Bromwich (8 km west of Birmingham) Input Capacity: 130,000 tons/year of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) Plant Nominal Capacity: 16.2 MW Total Capex expected: approx. GBP 80m Revenues expected: approx. GBP 20 - 21m EBITDA expected : approx. GBP 9 - 10m The project will produce power equivalent to the demand from 25.500 UK homes and it will avoid 36.000
- ton. of CO2 per year.
ACQUISITION OF 51% OF VERUS ENERGY OAK LIMITED 2/2
Should the investment be decided, following completion of the due diligence investigations still underway and the verification of bankability, the project will presumably have the following details :
WEST BROWNCASTLE WIND FARM
25
Location: South Lanarkshire (Scotland)
- N. of Turbines: 12
Plant Nominal Capacity: 30 MW Output expected: approx. 74 GWh Incentives: ROCs and LECs Revenues expected: approx. GBP 7,5m Ebitda expected: approx GBP 5,5m The wind farm will produce power equivalent to the demand from 14.000 UK homes and it will avoid 28.000 ton. of CO2 per year.
