1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Crockbaravally Wind Farm Ltd is a private company, limited by shares , registered in Northern Ireland.

The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company

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

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.

Going concern

We draw attention to the current Covid-19 pandemic and the potential economic impact the virus will

have in the coming months. The directors have considered the cash balance held by the company, and

the projected administrative and other costs for the forthcoming 12 months from the date of signing of

the financial statements, and consider there to be adequate resources in place. On this basis, the

company is considered to be a going concern.

Significant judgements and estimates

In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgments,

estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily

apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical

experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these

estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting

estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that

period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future

periods.No significant judgements and estimates have been made in the period.

Turnover

Turnover is generated from electricity sold to a third party under a Power Purchase Agreement ("PPA")

and through the renewable obligation certificate ("ROC") under a UK government scheme associated

with electricity generated. It is recognised net of VAT when the electricity is physically exported.

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 25 years

Financial instruments

The Company enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of

financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other

third parties, loans to related parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.

Derivatives, including interest rate swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic

financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract

is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of

derivatives are recognised in profit or loss in finance costs or income as appropriate. The company

does not currently apply hedge accounting for interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives.

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank

loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at

amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Taxation

Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except that a charge attributable to an item of income and

expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also

recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted

or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and

generates income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not

reversed by the Balance sheet date, except that:

The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be

recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and

Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax

allowances have been met.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of

business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of

assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair

values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined

using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Loans

Non-derivative financial liabilities with fixed or determinable repayments that are not quoted in an active

market are classified as loans. Loans are initially recognised at fair value of the consideration received

plus directly related transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest method. Arrangement fees and interest payable on financial liabilities that are

classified as loans, are charged to the profit and loss account.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of

allocating the interest payable over the expected life of the liability. The effective interest rate is the rate

that exactly discounts estimated future cashflows to the instrument's initial carrying amount.

Calculation of the effective interest rate takes into account fees payable, that are an integral part of the

instrument yield and transaction costs. All contractual terms of a financial instrument are considered

when estimating future cash flows.

A financial liability is removed from the balance sheet when the obligation is discharged, or cancelled,

or expires.

Hedge accounting

The Company uses variable to fixed interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to fair value risk on its

long term borrowings. These derivatives are measured at fair value at each balance sheet date:

To the extent the cash flow hedge is effective, movements in fair value are recognised in other

comprehensive income and represented in a separate cash flow hedge reserve. Any ineffective

portions of those movements are recognised in profit or loss for the year.
