SSE PLC on Thursday reiterated earnings guidance for fiscal
2024, with an underperformance in renewables in its first quarter
ended June 30 is expected to be offset in the key months ahead.
The FTSE 100 energy company continues to expect adjusted
earnings per share of at least 150 pence ($1.94) for the year
ending March 31, 2024, compared with 166.0 pence in fiscal
2023.
SSE said its renewable electricity output fell to 1,625
gigawatt-hours in the first quarter from 2,129 GWh a year earlier,
5% below full-year plans due to weather conditions. However, the
key months in its financial year are still ahead, with the first
few weeks of the second quarter have so far seen a return to more
normal weather, it said.
Thermal power generation slipped to 3,714 GWh from 3,809 GWh a
year earlier, reflecting more planned outages.
"We are making good progress on the critical national
infrastructure projects that underpin our growth plans out to 2027,
and we continue to develop options that could see us invest up to
GBP40 billion over the next decade," Finance Director Gregor
Alexander said.
