Completion of German Offshore wind sell down

·      Completion of the sale of a 15.2% equity stake in the Gode One
offshore wind farm at a 9% premium to carrying value

·      Proceeds of €100m received and have been used to reduce
borrowings under the Company's Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) to £228m

TRIG announces that the sale of a 15.2% equity interest in the 330MW Gode
offshore wind farm project in Germany, reported on 1 August 2024, has
completed following the receipt of relevant consents and clearances with
proceeds of €100m received. TRIG retains a 9.8% equity interest in the
project. The sale proceeds have been applied to reduce borrowings under the
Company's RCF to £228m.

This completed sale brings the total of divestment proceeds received by TRIG
in the past 24 months to £210m at an average 11% premium to carrying values.
These disposals, together with further disposals and financings being pursued
by the Managers, underpinned the Board's decision to increase the Company's
share buyback programme, as previously announced, from £50m to £150m.
