The transaction amounts to an enterprise value of &pound; 246.5 million. The transaction is subject to conditions precedent customary in transactions of this nature being met.

Its design is based on conventional grate and boiler technology from reputable suppliers and plays a key role in meeting the UK&rsquo;s climate objectives by providing renewable baseload capacity (energy recovery from waste wood is a key element of the waste hierarchy and the circular economy framework).
Tilbury Power Plant is built to a robust specification based on proven modern technology and is considered one of highest specification plants in the United Kingdom in relation to fire and deflagration protection systems. The plant benefits from (i) long-term contracts covering all key operational areas and a (ii) stable and highly visible cash flow generation, with a remuneration framework underpinned by RPI-indexed ROCs through to 2037 and useful life until 2054. Supply is fully covered by a 16-year fuel supply agreement covering 100 percent of the plant&rsquo;s requirements.
The plant has been designed with net generating capacity of 43.6 MW.
As of year ended December 31, 2020, Tilbury Power Plant reported turnover of &pound;28.6 million with adjusted EBITDA for the year being &pound;18.0 million.
This agreement will allow GREENVOLT, together with EQUITIX, to follow its ambitious project of international growth, solidifying its position in the European renewable energy sector, and contributing to the expansion of its business.
