The Company's aim is to provide investors with an annual dividend that increases in line with RPI inflation while preserving the capital value of its investment portfolio in the long term on a real basis through reinvestment of excess cash flow.

The substantial majority of the investment portfolio will be operating UK wind farms. The Company intends to maintain a balanced exposure to power prices. Aggregate Group Debt will not exceed 40% of GAV at drawdown.
