EET reported a loss of £241 million as operational challenges persist. In 2025, the company achieved its highest domestic sales since Essar's acquisition in 2011, with crude oil throughput rising by 8% from 2024.

The Russia-Ukraine conflict has caused volatility in global energy markets, impacting profitability and increasing unplanned downtime. Crude oil throughput at Stanlow fell to 59.21 million barrels from 60.25 million the previous year.

Stanlow is involved in the HyNet hydrogen production and carbon capture project, with EET investing in its own facilities for net zero goals. The company is implementing cost reduction measures and a business improvement plan focused on margin enhancement and retail expansion.
