You may jest but that's not too far away from the reality https://www.ft.com/content/57750bce-...2-4ef68604e029 December 20, 2017 "Drax says it expects to take a £10m hit to earnings after problems in delivering biomass to its power station. In a statement, the company said an “unplanned” outage on rail unloading facilities had restricted deliveries and as a result, some of its power generation had been cut. Consequently, earnings before interest tax depreciation and amortisation are expected to be £10m lower than expected in 2017; the company made £121m in ebitda in the six months ending in June this year. Repairs are due to be completed in January." -- |
