I do have an interest in this share; but even so, it does seem to be on an attractive discount. At this moment, it can be purchased at an offer price of 83.4 pence. This represents a discount to NAV of over 13%.

Details of the solar project are now on the TPS website at: http://turbopowersystems.com/turbo-power-systems-tps-collaborate-on-a-uk-solar-power-project/

Here is a bit of project involvement from TPS. http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/newsandeventspggrp/imperialcollege/administration/energyfutureslab/newssummary/news_6-1-2017-9-34-9 See this quote from the above: These technical aspects of the project will be a collaboration between researchers at Imperial College London and Turbo Power Systems (TPS). Imperial’s experience is on integration and management of renewable energy sources in electricity grids, while TPS work on the distribution and management of power in the railway sector. “TPS and Imperial really give us the full technical package,” says Leo. “We couldn’t have better partners to work out how we can integrate solar power with our trains.”

Another win for TPS at the Electra Awards yesterday (December 1st): Power System Product of the Year Turbo Power Systems – 100kW isolated DC-DC converter Turbo Power Systems has designed this 100kW isolated DC-DC converter to meet the high efficiency and low weight requirements of the rail industry. It uses silicon carbide mosfets which offer switching speed and thermal benefits. The circuit has been designed to minimise inductance and transformer materials for minimum size and weight. The result is a 96% conversion efficiency at full load. Finalists Bytec Healthcare – Medical battery pack for moveable instruments Ericsson – BMR458 650W quarter-brick power module Maxim Integrated – ModelGauge m5 Panasonic Automotive & Industrial Systems – NASBIS thermal isolation sheet Texas Instruments – TPS54A20 Small 10A, 10MHz DC-DC converter Turbo Power Systems – 100kW isolated DC-DC converter

I see from their Twitter feed that they are a finalist for an award from the Institution of Engineering and Technology.

I wonder whether this announcement carries any good news for TPS: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/08/10/biggest-rail-investment-in-uk-since-victorian-age-safeguards-100/

Quite liked the year on year increase in H1 orders from £4.13 million to £8.75 million.

I haven't seen any info on this 38 million + trade. Could you tell us where it was reported?

I notice that they have recently tweeted the link to the July piece on their website about having developed a converter that can re-cycle power to reduce consumption by up to 90%. http://turbopowersystems.com/2014/07/saving-money-going-green-tps-way/ I wondered, at the time, why this did not receive more publicity. I am still a bit baffled. But it is interesting that it should have resurfaced.
