**Current UK Energy Crisis**
In a nutshell prices this winter for Gas and Electricity are going to soar and put ALOT of people in a difficult situation financially. Here is one of the hundreds of news articles out there:

**What's the winter energy crisis got anything to do with HAYD?**
Read this RNS detailing that High Tech Systems Ltd has chosen HAYD as an exclusive partner to develop a thermal fluid.
https://www.lse.co.uk/rns/HAYD/haydale-awarded-supply-agreement-vl3dtf3o1es4it0.html
**Thermal Fluid? What the heck is that?**
HAYD will use its patented plasma functionalization technology to enhance the thermal conductivity and dispersion of boron nitride in thermal fluid applications. By enhancing the thermodynamic properties of water, Hi-Therm™ can significantly reduce the energy required to heat buildings, both domestic and commercial.
**Stop with the mumbo jumbo. Tell me in layman's terms**
Hi-Therm™ heats up quicker and offers up to 55% more heat transference than the water currently used in typical heating systems, so by installing Hi-Therm™ it is possible to reduce carbon emissions and offer significant fuel savings to millions of domestic and commercial buildings in the UK and beyond.
**Why all the hype and SP rise? Is there any update on this Hi-Therm Fluid?**
High Tech Systems released a HUGE press release 2 weeks back. Here are the key comments.
1. Hi-Therm was launched at Futurebuild in London last month to a captive audience interested in energy and carbon saving technologies.and was given a hero’s welcome by show visitors thanks to its potential to reduce customers’ energy usage and carbon emissions by 30%.
2. CEO said they have developed a game-changing product and to see the enormous interest at the Futurebuild London show. As they review the feedback, through interest shown at Futurebuild show, they can see the potential applications of the product span beyond just the domestic and commercial heating market,
3. CEO said despite the new recognised use cases, they are laser focused on getting Hi-Therm into the fuel poverty market to assist those who really need it to reduce energy usage and therefore reduce household bills.
4. Hi-Therm has been independently tested by several third parties including a leading university in the field of thermodynamics and the National Gas Centre for Excellence (NGCFE). At the NGCFE, a test environment was set up with two identical 4KW heating systems, one with water and the other with Hi-Therm®, and 30% less energy was used with Hi-Therm® during several days of continuous testing.
**How far can HAYD go?**
Look back on the charts, this game changing product could head well over its 50p highs. Remember this isn't the only product HAYD has but given the recent speech f
Barring news that we don't know about, I think that the Hi-Therm collaboration is almost certainly behind this recent price rise.
I will be interested to learn how what the payback period for Hi-Therm will be (i.e. what they choose to price the product). Given the savings are potentially considerable, they can probably put a reasonable margin on and still have it be both appealing and lucrative.
Morning Don_V - I tend to agree with you about Hi-Therm, however I also continue to hope that one of the large water companies will decide soon that CeramycGuard is the way forward for protecting their concrete infrastructure and place a large order for the substance, and perhaps also another possible near term price driver (specific to my own occupation) that the large Aerospace companies will take a closer look at/invest in Haydale's lightning strike damage prevention solution. Fingers crossed for further good news & upward price movement... GLA!!
Thank you SweetTango, that is really useful.
And I’m wondering if Hi-Therm will enable heat pumps to function viably in situations where they would not previously have done so. In our house, for instance, we investigated getting a heat pump and much as they wanted to sell us a system they said it would not work. The house is too old. But with Hi-Therm, and with high temperature heat pumps also coming onto the market, it could be a game changer for a great many situations.
