Director Retirement

 

Bluefield Solar (LON: BSIF), the London listed income fund focused on
acquiring and managing renewable energy and storage assets predominantly in
the UK, announces that, as previously communicated to the market, John Scott,
who has served as a non-executive director since the Company's launch in 2013,
including as the Company's Chair between November 2022 and October 2025, has
retired from the Board of the Company with effect from 30 November 2025.

 

The Company would like to extend its sincere thanks to John for his hard work
and tireless dedication to Bluefield Solar for the last twelve years.  His
input has been invaluable, and the Company wishes him well in his retirement.

 

Michael Gibbons, Chair of Bluefield Solar, said: "As a founder Director of
Bluefield Solar from 2013, John has successfully guided the Company since its
formation, and for the last three years, has been our Chairman. His
significant experience in the sector, commitment to the Company and sound
judgement has played a major part in the success of Bluefield Solar over the
last twelve years.  We would like to thank John for his dedication and
service as well as for the contribution he has made in delivering value to our
shareholders."

 

James Armstrong, Managing Partner of Bluefield Partners, said: "The Bluefield
Partners team have worked closely with John since the Company's IPO and have
benefitted from his counsel and focus on consistently delivering attractive
covered dividends, something that we have achieved since 2013.  In more
recent times, John has remained steadfast whilst navigating the complex
structural challenges that our industry has faced and we thank him for his
commitment and wish him well in his retirement. We are pleased that Michael
Gibbons has taken over the Chair role last month and we look forward to
working with him closely as the Company progresses through the current
strategic view and Formal Sales Process."
