HMRC presented a winding-up petition against Green Global Energy Ltd, an Ilkley-based electricity trade company, on 17 April 2026. The High Court is scheduled to hear the case on 10 June 2026.
A winding-up petition is a court filing by a creditor asking the court to make a winding-up order. Filing a petition does not put the company into liquidation, as the court must first make the order at a hearing. Green Global Energy has not been wound up and remains an active company on the Companies House register at the time of publication.
The petition
The Commissioners for HM Revenue and Customs, of 14 Westfield Avenue, Stratford, London, filed the petition claiming to be a creditor of the company. The case is listed under court reference CR-2026-003036 in the High Court of Justice (Chancery Division) and will be heard at the Royal Courts of Justice, 7 Rolls Building, Fetter Lane, London, on 10 June 2026 at 10:30.
Anyone wishing to appear at the hearing, whether to support or oppose the petition, must give notice of that intention to HMRC or its solicitor by 16:00 on 9 June 2026. HMRC's solicitor is the General Counsel and Solicitor to His Majesty's Revenue and Customs, reachable on 03000 589629 with reference 2127864.
The company
Green Global Energy Ltd is registered at Suite 4, 10/12 The Grove, Ilkley, England, LS29 9EG. Its SIC code corresponds to trade of electricity. The company was incorporated on 18 February 2020 and filed its most recent accounts to 31 March 2025 on a total-exemption-full basis, a reporting route available to smaller companies.
No secured charges are registered against the company at Companies House.
The directors
Paul Anthony Vokes has been a director since incorporation on 18 February 2020 and remains in post. Michael Burns was also appointed on incorporation but resigned on 5 July 2020. Anthony Ford joined the board on 31 May 2020 and resigned on 11 June 2021.
Common questions
What does a winding-up petition mean for Green Global Energy Limited?
A petition is a court filing, not a court order. Green Global Energy Limited is not yet in liquidation. The court will consider the petition at the date listed in the notice; until then, the company continues to trade, but its bank may freeze accounts and counterparties may stop extending credit. The court can dismiss the petition, adjourn it, or grant a winding-up order.
Are you owed money by Green Global Energy Limited?
You are not yet a creditor in a liquidation; the company is still trading. If you support the petition, you may file a notice of support at the court named in the notice. If the petition is granted, you become an unsecured creditor in the resulting compulsory liquidation and the Official Receiver will invite you to submit a proof of debt.
Did you work at Green Global Energy Limited?
A petition does not by itself terminate your employment. Wages and holiday pay continue to accrue until the company stops paying you or is wound up. Watch the bank position closely; if accounts are frozen, payroll will be the first thing to fail. If the petition is granted, statutory redundancy and notice claims become payable from the Redundancy Payments Service.
Are you a director of Green Global Energy Limited?
Once a petition is filed, the company's directors have a heightened duty to consider the interests of creditors. Continuing to trade where there is no reasonable prospect of avoiding insolvent liquidation can expose directors to personal liability for wrongful trading under Section 214 of the Insolvency Act 1986. Specialist insolvency advice should be taken immediately.
