In short, no. Our business case is based on expert advice, historical river data and cautious assumptions on future costs and prices. From this, we’ve estimated the annual return to shareholders, the rate at which we will repay your capital, and the amount available for community benefit. But these cannot be guaranteed because, as with any project, there are risks. We’ve outlined the risks in the share offer document, and you should read these before you invest.
