Blake has led the subsidiary for the past two years. He is the company’s largest shareholder at 24.8%, but he won’t join the board. ‘Timothy is principally responsible for the development of what we believe will represent a game-changing performance improvement in the wind turbine sector globally, having completely rethought the traditional turbine model,’ comments Chair Neil Ritson.

Pretax loss narrows to £1.1 million from £4.1 million. The company has no revenue. The narrowed loss is due to £2.9 million in net impairment losses on disposal of assets that were taken in 2022 and are not repeated.
