Standard payment terms

Our standard payment terms, as set out in our Terms and Conditions for the Supply of Goods and Services (available on our website – refer to the Viridor Standard Conditions for Goods and Services in the Terms & Conditions section:https://www.viridor.co.uk/work-with-us/procurement/), are 60 days after the end of the month of receipt of a valid and undisputed invoice. In practice, a range of payment terms is applied across our supplier base, depending on the nature of the goods or services supplied and the arrangements agreed with each supplier.

Dispute resolution

Viridor Energy Limited operates an automated invoice process. We work closely with our suppliers and aim to pay all invoices in a timely and accurate manner. Any disputes that arise are immediately brought to the attention of the dedicated Accounts Payable team and Transactional Services Manager who will engage with all relevant stakeholders to ensure a speedy and satisfactory resolution. Any dispute arising that is not resolved is escalated through the finance management structure and the Executive Management team member if required.

Other information

From 1 April 2025, Viridor Energy Limited assumed responsibility for the procurement of services previously contracted by its subsidiaries, reflecting a move to a centralised procurement model. Payments disclosed in this report are aligned with these revised arrangements. In future reporting periods, payments made directly by subsidiaries of Viridor Energy Limited are expected to be limited to legal agreements that remain within those entities.

How UK payment reporting works

What is a Payment Practices Report?
UK companies and LLPs above a size threshold — broadly, two of: turnover over £54m, balance sheet over £27m, or more than 250 employees — must report twice a year, under the Reporting on Payment Practices and Performance Regulations 2017, how quickly they actually pay suppliers: the average time to pay, the share of invoices paid in 30 days or fewer, 31 to 60 days and 61 days or longer, and their standard payment terms. Those thresholds apply to financial years beginning on or after 6 April 2025; for earlier financial years they were £36m and £18m, with the same 250-employee test.
What does "paid outside agreed terms" mean?
The share of invoices paid later than the terms in the supplier contract. If terms are 30 days and an invoice is paid on day 45, it counts as paid outside terms, regardless of the headline average.
How often is this data updated?
Each report covers a six-month period and must be filed within 30 days of that period ending, so a company's record refreshes roughly twice a year. PaidLate re-reads the register as new reports are filed.
Is this official government data?
The underlying payment figures come from the company's own statutory filings on the gov.uk payment-practices service; company-status data comes from Companies House. PaidLate calculates trends, comparisons and summaries from those records. It does not use surveys or credit-agency scores.

How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.

The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
