The development of the Stoke-on-Trent project has taken longer than anticipated..
This due diligence was conducted during the year and the technical and commercial aspects of the geothermal heat provision within the project were signed off by the consultant towards the end of Q3 2023. Subsequent to the year end, SSE, as lead applicant have submitted a project change request to the GHNF which seeks to amend both the capital grant as well as the timetable within which that grant will be spent. A decision is expected in the second quarter of 2024.

The Group has gross total tax losses and similar attributes carried forward of £362.1 million (2022: £355.3 million).

Star is unhedged on its oil so capturing all the upside on the latest run up in prices. They have obtained financing to retire the rest of the legacy debt and provide for drilling costs in the geothermal space. This leaves the cashflow from the oil to ensure it can be expanded and optimised.
The company is now in the best place it has been for years. This should be a rerate we are seeing now.
