The concept

What this site is being prepared for

The Energy Park concept aims at generation, storage and green-hydrogen offtake — infrastructure classes that only make sense on long tenure. A 50-year lease matches the 25-to-30-year life of generation assets with room for a second investment cycle, and the three-phase structure maps build-out stages to the lease itself.

The terms are identical across the portfolio: a 50-year lease in three phases of 15, 20 and 15 years with a renewal review at year 50; a 15 percent qualifying corporate income tax rate under Section 12R against the standard 27; duty and VAT relief on production inputs inside the planned customs-controlled area; and a 10 percent per-annum building allowance plus the employment tax incentive.

Questions investors ask

What makes a 50-year lease relevant for energy investors?
Generation and storage assets typically amortise over 25 to 30 years. A 50-year tenure covers a full asset life plus a repowering cycle on the same site, which shorter industrial leases cannot.
Is grid capacity confirmed?
Not yet. Grid connection capacity is one of the [DATA PENDING] items tracked in the verification register; no megawatt figure will be published until the client data pack confirms it.
Which sectors is the zone targeting?
Renewable generation, storage, and green-hydrogen production and offtake, over a 50-year horizon.
