Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Our shortest standard terms are associated with purchases of biomass which is used in the electricity generation process, these are with a number of different suppliers but are contractually payable between 5 and 10 business days. Our standard terms for suppliers which the majority of our suppliers are setup are the longest. These terms are net monthly account + 30 days from invoice date, therefore actually payment ranges from 60 to 90 days depending on when the invoice is dated within the month.

When a new supplier is setup on our system they are required to sign off a supplier form which details address, account details and standard payment terms which they will be paid under. These are referred to when any disputes are raised and are quoted on purchase orders when they are sent out to suppliers.
