Drax is back in the black as it emerged as a greener operator from 2021.
The energy giant sold off its gas-fired generation interests as it concentrated on biomass and hydro-electric operations, furthering its carbon capture plans to further clean up the North Yorkshire operations, while providing a huge anchor project for the wider Humber Net Zero ambition.
Total turnover dropped from £412 million to £398 million, with gas-fired generation discontinued after it was sold in a £186 million deal to Immingham-headquartered VPI.
