30 Shareholder questions from the AGM How will the Government s announcement on the withdrawal of subsidies for onshore wind projects effect Triodos Renewables? On 18 June 2015, Department of Energy & Climate Change announced that it plans to close Renewables Obligation for new onshore wind projects on 1 April 2016, a year earlier than planned. Only projects which have secured grid connection offers, planning consent and land rights will be able to secure a grace period during which it will still be able to qualify for Renewables Obligation Certificates (ROCs) beyond this date. New primary legislation will be introduced with details of the closure. The Government also announced that it wishes to review the Feed in Tariff (FIT) scheme later this year and as part of this review, to seek options at how community projects are being funded. The existing projects in our portfolio will not be impacted by the Government s decision as the Company s projects have already qualified for ROCs. This decision may however impact on our future investment strategy. In the next 12 months Triodos Renewables will only consider onshore wind projects which will qualify for either ROC, FIT or CFD (Contract for Difference). We will also continue to consider the variety of investment opportunities which exist in sustainable energy. These options include the sale of electricity directly to local industry, community projects and further consideration of technologies such as hydro-electric, solar pv, energy efficiency and demand side management. Decisions will continue to be made in line with the objectives of achieving the greatest impact, taking acceptable risk and maximising shareholder returns. We also hope that the Government will continue their commitment to renewables and that the Contract for Difference scheme will still be opened for onshore wind projects. The UK Government remains committed to achieving its green house gas emission reduction targets, onshore wind remains the cheapest way to deliver these targets. The onshore wind sector also represents a very significant employer in the UK. Continued support of onshore wind will provide the UK with the cheapest means of achieving its green house gas emission reduction targets. We will continue to contribute to cleaning up the UKs energy system, but this latest step may slow progress of the sector and ultimately cost the country more as we underutilise one of the countries greatest natural resources. 29
31 Shareholder questions from the AGM What proportion of shares in the Company are held by institutional investors? Approximately 25% of the Company s shares are held by Institutional investors. A Socially Responsible Investment Fund, who purchased additional shares following the recent share issue, is the largest shareholder and own 7.5% of the shares. How long should auditors remain with the Company? We consider a review every 5 years to be appropriate, and a change in auditor should take place every 10 years. What is the A share? Stichting Triodos Holding own the A share in Triodos Renewables. The A share exists to safeguard the Company s mission and ethos. The A share has the power to prevent certain resolutions. Full detail can be found on page 38 of the 2014 Annual Report. Are there plans to allot more shares in the future and what safeguards are in place to protect the value of existing shares if the share capital of the Company were to double? Currently there are no plans to allot additional shares in the Company this year. It is the fiduciary duty of the Board to protect shareholders interests and shareholders place their trust in the Board to do this. Historically we have allotted shares to allow the growth in Triodos Renewables to increase the green electricity generation and income potential of the Company. 30
32 Shareholder questions from the AGM Resolutions 7 & 8 refer to the authority to allot shares in the Company up to a nominal amount of 10,890,094.50, which would be doubling the current share capital. Is this figure sensible as this would substantially dilute existing shareholdings? The Board and team will review this figure in the resolutions equivalent to 7 and 8 for the next AGM. In the terms of the draft buy back contract the word substantially is used. Please explain the usage of this word. The contracts provided with the AGM pack are draft contracts, as at the time of sending we do not have all the final details of the final sellers and volumes, as they have a right to withdraw their participation in the buy back prior to the final legally binding contracts being drawn up. The terms will remain constant, but the contracts will be updated with the details for each eligible shareholder. Was the Greenvale (March) site chosen because the Company is a good partner to work with, or because the site is windy? A combination of both. The site benefits from a good wind regime. Greenvale have implemented other environmental projects including a solar pv installation and grey water recycling. The turbine on the Greenvale potato factory site provides green electricity to the factory at a discounted price to what they would pay from the national grid. This allows them to manage their costs and continue to improve their environmental performance. 31
33 Shareholder questions from the AGM Excluding the new projects, if the other project s generation is averaged out, generation appears to be down from last year. What happens to the older sites when they stop functioning as efficiently (for example Beochlich, where there have been several faults)? We have experienced some operational issues (major component failures) in 2014 on our older sites. In addition to aiming to improve their performance, we are considering the option of repowering some of our older sites that have started to show their age, where the performance could be enhanced with more advanced technology. Do you expect to have better results with your newer turbines? Is the technology improving? Yes the reliability of technology is improving. In addition to this, due to growth in the sector, the more modern machines have a better spare parts supply chain. We are working with specialist operations and maintenance contractors to improve the performance of the older machines and we ve made good progress in identifying sources of spare parts. We now routinely benefit from year operational performance warranties from the manufacturers which also contributes to improved reliability. Did insurance provide cover for lost revenue when there were faults with the sites? Yes. We made a number of claims under our operations all risk insurance last year, both for the cost of parts and repair and the lost output during the period of operational down time. In addition to seeking warranties from operations and maintenance contractors we maintain operations all risk insurance cover for all assets to mitigate performance risk. 32
34 Shareholder questions from the AGM How obliged are network operators to take account of our needs? There are regulations which require the network operators to provide a connection. However, this is not prescriptive on timing and cost. The grid connection process is often expensive and can take an extended period. The renewables industry both requires and is contributing to a much more flexible grid as we move from a centralised to de-centralised energy system. There are some innovative approaches now being adopted. Do you have a maximum level of debt that you consider to be prudent? At the Triodos Renewables group level we have 65% gearing. At an individual project level, we tend to have between 70% and 80% gearing at the beginning of operations. As the assets mature, the level of gearing will fall. At the group level we wouldn t expect to maintain gearing higher than it is presently. We take on debt with the intention of allowing our shareholder s investment to contribute to more renewable energy capacity and also to increase long term returns. Can you explain what mezzanine finance is? Mezzanine debt is also called sub-ordinated debt. In terms of security and risk, this debt ranks behind the senior debt provided by banks, but before equity. Why is the Company paying 6% for debt when interest rates have been so low recently? We fix the interest rate of the majority of our debt to avoid exposure to changed in interest rates. Much of our debt is provided over 5 to 15 years. In this medium to long term context 6% is competitive. 33
35 Shareholder questions from the AGM How many shares are traded on the Matched Bargain Market? Over the past year, 129,949 shares have been traded on the MBM. The MBM is currently operated by Capita. We have discussed ways to improve the share trading process with Capita. We aim to amend the share trading execution process with a view to increasing share trading liquidity. Additionally the list of trades for sale will be available on the new Triodos Renewables website that will launch in later this year; instructions will be clearer; the execution policy for trading will be refined and simplified. We aim to continue to provide more information to allow shareholders to realise the value of the their shareholding. Why is the Company adopting IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards)? This is a regulatory requirement for the Company and will help to future proof the Company s financial reporting. We will be using Deloitte to assist us with the transition to IFRS, to keep the continuity throughout the transition process. As part of the process we will adjust both the 2013 and 2014 accounts according to IFRS standards. We still plan to produce half year reports for shareholders under IFRS, but they will not include as much detailed financial information due to the increased time it will take to provide this information. The half year reports will be more focused on operational performance. We will still include Profit & Loss information in the half year report. We understand that shareholders value the half-yearly update and aim to continue to provide this non-statutory communication. 34
36 Shareholder questions from the AGM Regarding the Notes on page 34 of the Annual Report - could the current Company structure be simplified? The structure of the Company is dictated by the way we finance and contract each asset/project company. This structure provides the group with flexibility and protection in the event of the failure of an asset/project company. Would there be any benefit to diversifying into solar pv? The cost of solar pv technology has materially reduced over the last 3 years. This technology can now deliver electricity at sustainable prices. We will be considering solar pv projects going forward as part of a more diversified portfolio. We are also considering investments in hydro assets and qualifying the opportunity to invest into energy efficiency and demand side management. We aim to maintain the current risk and return profile by continuing to invest in asset backed opportunities using proven technologies. Will there be an impact on the Company if Scotland were to become Independent? We can t predict what will happen should Scotland go independent, but we do have a spread of projects throughout the UK. 35
