18/1/2008 09:53 | UK set for 15% renewables target The European Union is expected to tell the UK that 15% of energy needs must be met from renewable sources by 2020. The figure, currently about 2%, will include all energy used for heating and cooling buildings. Experts say the target is challenging because heating and cooling are hard to achieve on a mass scale with renewable fuels, says BBC analyst Roger Harrabin. The EU, which is trying to create a low-carbon economy in Europe, will announce its decision next week. Tough but achievable The target is expected to be met mainly through electricity generation. Sources suggest the UK will need to get between 30% and 40% of its electricity from wind, wave and solar sources by 2020, which is up from 5%.

17/1/2008 12:24 | Watchdog seeks levy on £9bn electricity profits windfall By Ed Crooks, Energy Editor Published: January 16 2008 22:31 | Last updated: January 16 2008 22:31 A £9bn windfall profit for electricity companies over the next five years should be clawed back by the government to help people struggling with high fuel bills, the energy regulator has proposed. Alistair Buchanan, chief executive of Ofgem, raised the plan in a meeting with Alistair Darling at the Treasury on Tuesday, which was called by the chancellor to discuss rising energy prices. EDITOR'S CHOICE Ofgem 'must cut greenhouse gases' - Sep-19Call for independent EU energy regulator - Sep-17Scotland up in arms over higher electricity charges - Aug-20The idea is likely to be welcomed by fuel poverty campaigners, but was received coolly by Mr Darling on Wednesday. The generators' trade association described the proposal as "breathtaking", and industry warned that the plan could push up prices even further. Energy companies can make windfall profits because the price of electricity rises to reflect the price of permits to emit carbon dioxide in the European Union's emissions trading scheme. However, the generators are given most of those permits for free. Ofgem estimates that the cost of permits accounts for about 17 per cent of the wholesale price of electricity. Over phase two of the scheme, from 2008-12, the gains to generators are set to be £9bn, Ofgem has calculated. In phase three of the scheme, for which the European Commission will set out proposals next week, generators are likely to have to buy their permits in auctions, preventing any windfall gains. However, for phase two, Ofgem thinks that the government could find another way to claw back those profits. Mr Buchanan said: "If this were something that Number 11 thought interesting to take further, we would be happy to work with them on it. They will know better than us whether this is do-able." However, Mr Darling's aides said the chancellor did little more than "acknowledge" Ofgem's concerns and that the issue was "not really discussed". Spain's parliament has recently voted for a "carbon windfall tax" to claw back excess profits. But a second windfall tax on energy companies following Labour's raid on utilities after the 1997 election is seen in the Treasury as a step too far. The Association of Electricity Producers said it was "breathtaking" that Ofgem had told the Treasury there were windfall gains that could be tapped, and warned that "retrospective" taxation "would send the damaging signal to investors in a vital UK industry".

Meanwhile Iberdrola Renovables march on and hats off to Ecofin for their consistent strategic and intelligent investment.

08/1/2008 17:51 | Ecofin Water & Power Stmt re Airtricity Holdings RNS Number:3332L Ecofin Water & Power Opps PLC 08 January 2008 ECOFIN WATER & POWER OPPORTUNITIES PLC On 4 January 2008, Airtricity Holdings Limited ("Airtricity") announced that it had reached a definitive agreement to be acquired by Scottish and Southern Energy Plc ("SSE") for an equity value of approximately Euro1.1 billion, excluding the proceeds which Airtricity realised from the recent sale of its North American business unit to the German company E.ON. SSE's aggregate purchase price for Airtricity, including the proceeds of the sale of Airtricity's North American business unit, transaction costs and other adjustments, is approximately Euro1.8 billion. In addition, SSE will assume liabilities of approximately Euro375 million. The Company owns 2,744,518 shares in Airtricity, equivalent to approximately 5.04% of Airtricity's outstanding share capital, which it purchased in August 2006 for Euro16.43 per share. Other funds and accounts managed by Ecofin Limited, the Company's investment manager, own an additional 9.72% of Airtricity, following the recent exercise of some outstanding share options. The Company's investment in Airtricity is currently valued at a Directors' valuation of Euro28.20 per share pursuant to a revaluation of Airtricity on 24 December 2007. The proceeds of the sale of Airtricity are expected to be approximately Euro33 per share, subject to some closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of 2008, following receipt of regulatory approvals.

07/1/2008 14:51 | Thanks to Jzd for kindly pointing out my delusions specifically in and prior to 1758. In hope of achieving accuracy I offer the following. SSE offer 1,826m. For how this is calculated please read the section entitled "Enterprise Value and Consideration" from the SSE Acquisition RNS below Funds managed by Ecofin Limited owned 16.1% of Airtricity according to the Interim statement for six month to September, 2007. 16.1% * 1,826m = 293.986m 293,986,000 converts to £ 218,886,158 However Ecofin Power & Water Opportunities PLC own 5.4% according to page 7 of the Annual Report for 2007. 5.4% * 98,604,000 = £73,601,552 Net assets according to RNS Net asset value £591,845,000 Value of Airtricity apportioned to Ecofin Power and Water Opportunities PLC £56,845,690 So £73,601,552 - £56,845,690 = £16,755,862 increase in Airtricity holding. New Net asset value £591,845,000 + £16,755,862 (2.83%) = £608,600,862 Assuming loan facility remains at circa 40% gross assets would become £1,014,334,770 Good news for all ECWC's holders. Feel free to point out any errors or emissions. All IMHO and DYOR etc. | praipus | |
07/1/2008 14:51 | Each class of share has its own attraction. | praipus | |
07/1/2008 13:09 | But ECWO is also experiencing bigger discounting and, though very steady, seems impervious to good news. Safe, though. | clusium | |
07/1/2008 12:23 | Thanks for the calculation Priapus. The only query I have is the 98,604 figure which is rather than £ I think. It certainly is good news for ECWC holders. It amazes me to see ECWC still with big discounts when their performance has been so outstanding. Presumably it reflect the risk of the gearing. | jzd | |

Feel free to tear this to pieces if I've made any errors or emissions. All IMHO and DYOR etc. | praipus | |
07/1/2008 11:32 | jzd Thank you for asking. After going through this a bit more carefully it looks like the overall (i.e. ECWO + ECW + ECWC) NAV increase is likely to be nearer 6.79% IMHO, will post my workings shortly. | praipus | |
07/1/2008 10:15 | Praipus Thanks for all your v useful posts on ECWC. Would you mind showing us how you work out that figure of 19% NAV increase. (preferably distinguishing between published figures and assumptions/estimati | jzd | |
07/1/2008 10:00 | ECWC NAV £9.068 accoroding to the AIC, share price discount 8.5%, gearing 504. Excludes the 1,080m offer for Airtricity from SSE. Ecofin and its associated companies own approx 16.1% of Airtricty. Subject to Irish regulatory approval and any further counter offer, at the current level I estimate the NAV would increase by over 19%. | praipus |
