Two words Testy - the last one is off, you have a choice of the first, you unbearable bore and waste of skin.

He said: “The Australian project works for power, because power prices are high. They struck a very good strike price for power from waste, which is great. And I think that, maybe, is the methodology to take. They look at power first to start to pay for the project. And be hydrogen-ready if that market takes off. “But from an electricity perspective the adoption of the technology is very much market dependent. In the UK, it might not really work at the moment because prices are not great for the producer.” Looking forward, Emmitt says that the real push going forward is “letting people know the technology is not a one trick pony”. He concluded: “The power play is important. Data centres want to run off-grid; it’s a massive market, where the technology could help support the electricity need. The mining sector is also a big market. “Geographically, there are opportunities in smaller EU states where power prices are high and waste is being shipped abroad. We are also talking to Egypt and have a subsidiary in Thailand. We are also in discussions in South America and North America. The Middle East has cheap gas and power but has a massive waste problem, so we are in talks there. And there are opportunities in Africa where there’s a lot of plastic waste; and although power is cheap, it’s not always stable. “We are a small company, but we have global ambitions.”

The PHE research and development team will utilise the system for development, process optimisation and for the development of future IP. Since opening, the pilot has, according to PHE, performed “really well”, running on feedstocks such as chicken manure, tyres and waste plastics. The results have aligned with the models, so the company now has validated models that can show predicted power and heat outputs for any given feedstock and throughput. The FTU proved to be the turning point. “Once we got the FTU off the ground, enquiries started coming through the door consistently,” said Emmitt. “Since March last year, more than 50 enquiries have come in – from virtually nothing.” The first interest came from Australia. Gaining confidence from seeing the Bridgend pilot in action, National Hydrogen (NH2) of Australia signed a five-year agreement to use PHE’s technology and engineering expertise for hydrogen projects in Australia, Italy, Switzerland and Hong Kong. The NH2 project includes a FrontEnd Engineering Design (FEED) study, undertaken by Engsolve, and a framework agreement that sets out the terms on which PHE would provide support on a project-by-project basis, working closely with NH2 to deliver these projects successfully. This agreement is based upon a licensing and royalty model, where PHE monitors the facility 24/7. The current expectation is that the plant will be up and running by the mid of 2028. The FTU was also instrumental in securing the Ballymena project. This facility is a validated project that has progressed steadily and is expected to begin operation during a similar timeframe as the NH2 project. When complete, it will produce syngas for “The main driver is waste,” said Emmitt. “There are a number of companies around Ballymena that send waste to landfill sites, which is costing them a fortune, so they were happy to sell us the waste instead. They see themselves as a hydrogen hub for Northern Ireland – they have invested in hydrogen buses and everything is already plastic piped – but there is also the power offtake opportunity.” Being more open to other applications outside of hydrogen has also been key to PHE’s recent success in attracting investors. “We shifted from focusing on just hydrogen production – our outputs are power, heat and hydrogen if you want it,” said Emmitt. “But not being tied to hydrogen as we were in the past is really bringing people in.” But while power has always been an application, Emmitt noted that it is market and location specific.

“We’re not talking huge outputs but it’s enough for a town,” he said. “The ideal scenario is: a new housing estate gets built; the waste from the homes comes to a PHE facility; the heat from the facility is used for district heating; the electricity is used to power the houses. So that estate becomes relatively self-sufficient,” he said. DMG is essentially a pyrolysis/ gasification process. Thermal treatment is carried out in a rotating kiln at around 1000°C with the help of an oxidising agent but without introducing any additional oxygen or air into the process. The operation takes place in a slight vacuum but although there is a little air in the chamber, the feedstock is not being burned. It breaks down the waste, so it becomes vapour. PHE then controls several of the reactions in that vapour to produce syngas. The temperature, oxidising agent and the residence time of the gases in the chamber are controlled to produce either a hydrogen-rich gas or a methane-rich gas. When looking to produce electricity, the methane content would be increased so it can be burned in a reciprocating gas engine. Knowing the model of what is going on in the process and the target operation points are, according to PHE, its IP (intellectual property). Emmitt added: “In a commercial unit, the kiln is just under 10 m long with a diameter of just over 2 m. And because we use a rotating kiln, there is a relatively constant composition of syngas, even on a varying feedstock, because the gas has time to mix within the system and a big sell is, plastics don’t have to be cleaned. In fact, the biogenic in the waste food [remaining on the plastic] makes the output better. The f lexibility of the feedstock is the really big thing for us.” The first small unit to test the technology was built by Engsolve in 2017. PHE later bought 100 per cent of Engsolve. By 2019 there were plans to build a full-scale facility at an energy and recovery hub near Ellesmere Port in Cheshire (see TEI Times, April 2019). Although this facility never materialised, work continued with the both hydrogen and electricity. construction of the Bridgend Technology Centre & Feedstock Testing Unit (FTU) in South Wales. The unit, which opened in 2024, served as a centre for the two business (PHE and Engsolve) and provided a home for a 2.5 t/day pilot plant. The FTU was designed, built and commissioned by Engsolve, and is operated by PHE. In March 2025 PHE opened the FTU to investors and the public, showcasing the DMG technology on a pre-commercial scale. This allows PHE to demonstrate its IP, provide testing for future clients and to further develop its offerings.

The environmental problems created by waste, especially waste that currently has to go to landfill, continues to be a significant issue. And while waste-to-energy technologies such as circulating f luidised bed boilers can handle most waste products, waste companies and local councils who do recycling have no options for high calorific value plastic products, other than sending them to landfill. However, a process patented by PowerHouse Energy (PHE) looks set to help tackle the problem. After several years of development and pilot scale demonstration, the company’s DMG (Distributed Modular Gasification) technology has finally reached a significant milestone with the signing of an agreement to lease a site to host what is expected to be the first commercial plant of a significant size. Commenting on the technology’s niche, Paul Emmitt, PHE’s CEO, said: “The push is the reduction of waste, generally. Our sell is, we allow you to generate electricity from something that was just going to be buried. There are big energy-fromwaste incinerators, but our system is set up to be distributed energy, so the unit is around 40 tonnes/day of waste. That’s designed to suit a municipality. So, we aren’t competing against the recyclers or the incinerators; what we want is that piece in the middle that’s still going into the ground. And surprisingly, there’s still a hell of a lot going into the ground.” Emmitt: The real push going forward is letting people know the technology is not a one trick pony In February this year, PHE announced that it secured a 25-year lease for a 1.98 acre serviced site at Silverwood Business Park, Ballymena, Northern Ireland and that it has submitted a full planning application to the Mid and East Antrim County Council. The facility is intended to take 40 t/day of waste destined for landfill and convert it into 99.999 per cent pure hydrogen for a variety of uses, including transport. Negotiations are already taking place on feedstock and offtake agreements. Emmitt said: “This is a major step forward for the company. Ballymena is set to become the hydrogen hub of Northern Ireland, with the organisations including Wrightbus, Translink and the Mid and East Antrim Borough Council all focused on developing the hydrogen economy in Northern Ireland.” According to PHE, its technology is capable of eliminating waste, including plastic waste and used tyres with high levels of energy recovery, while producing hydrogen and/or electric power. With the capacity to export around 3.5 MW from 40 t/day of non-recyclable plastic, Emmitt sees it as an excellent solution for local councils.

Not goodbye Testy, i really just cant be bothered with you anymore, so TTFN (just to you, prat).

Testy, you win, congrats - fantastic. Take care and good luck. I just can't talk to this idiot anymore, it's like playing chess with a pigeon.

testy, where do i start - ffs, do you have some form of dementia, or are you just plain old-fashioned ******ed? let's see: your boast of 'i have been investing for 50 years,' which you even admitted was an exaggeration. not an exageration old chap, a lie. i really don't know why i bother replying anymore, you are a classic troll, all you are going to do is ignore, fabricate some more, spin on the spot and regugitate items that you made up in the first place (just look at what you are accusing me now of, and just to remind you my body of work is an uplift of tce, and actually won a deans award for acedemic excleence - so yeah plagerised, right on). i really must stop posting back to you, it's a pointless endavour.

A lie is a lie, Testpack, and you have been found out - doesn't matter how far back it goes, you still lied. Oh, and for the PhD,have you ever heard about data privacy you melt? I gave you details of my doctoral study and supervising Professor, along with my candidate number, the first time around (and no, I'm not giving it to you again, you waste of space). Now try using Google search effectively, old chap, as I know you have trouble understanding how search engines work. If you really are interested, take a trip to the De Havilland campus, register your interest, and you can look up my body of work in the library, which protects my privacy and gives you the proof you so desperately want. Don't want to travel to campus - not my problem.

Testpack3. You have repeatedly claimed I do not hold a PhD. This is false. My PhD was completed in the UK at the University of Hertfordshire. You have been corrected on this before and continue to repeat the lie.

You claim decades of trading experience, including “50 years”, yet your statements on BP and other liquid stocks have been demonstrably wrong when checked against public price history. When challenged, you pivot to credentials instead of evidence.

You accuse others of narcissism while repeatedly posting long, attention-seeking monologues, inventing histories, and misrepresenting basic facts. That projection is noted.

I will continue to correct false statements when you make them. Facts do not improve with repetition.

Shame they are in the process of being struck off.... ah well.

Like me or loath me, a festive wish for you all - yes even for those ones as well! Hope you all enjoy the festive season and look forward to seeing what 2026 brings.

Stock, I don't really need to read anything as it's the same old tired routine - here's a sneak preview of tomorrow's post. Fake PhD, something about narcissism, paid Uber-ramper, upset about Brazil, some invented success in his mind - something from about 3 or 4 years ago that he got wrong at the time, then vault farce and suddenly he's correct all over again. Why are you getting involved exactly - all this is really is a waste of space forum that lost it's usefulness about 5 years ago? Reason i come back?...., I really don't know - maybe its the pleasant welcome.

Yes, i'm sure you would never reply to a post that just lies about you - run along.

Green text already on the board, so it must be that time of day again.

Somewhere in Brazil, a certain gentleman has finished his morning sit-down and is now bravely firing off another monologue to the one audience member he doesn’t have.

Remarkable stamina for someone I don’t read. You’d almost think he’s still trying to convince us he was a prodigy trader at age eleven.

Anyway, carry on Twat, I’ll be over here not reading your next instalment.

Red, to be honest, i don't really care what you or the other collected bad faith actors have to say - keep posting as much as you like.

Green text was the giveaway. The wicked witch of South America always blows in right on schedule, still convinced the world needs his morning sermon.

Pity he’s filtered. All that effort, and he never notices no one’s actually listening. This is the same bloke who claimed he was trading markets as a schoolboy with the sort of confidence only someone armed with a shaky Google search and a wildly inflated sense of their own brilliance could muster.

He loves to think of himself as the intellectual in the room, yet he can’t see past the Dunning Kruger fog he walks around in. That’s why the script never changes. Same accusations, same fantasies, same recycled outrage.

Discredited isn’t even the word at this point, it’s more… predictable.

Dusty, you’ve summed it up. We could have three DMGs running, cash in the bank and a JV with the Pope, and this lot would still be arguing about the font on the RNS.

“Pointless forum” is starting to feel less like an insult and more like the mission statement.

Quite the matinée performance on here today. Half the cast is sunning themselves in Agadir, the other half is convinced we’re in a Hollywood disaster movie where Longspur turns up with a dilution meteor.

AIM companies change advisers all the time. Sometimes it’s because they want to raise, sometimes it’s because the old advisers were about as useful as a chocolate teapot, and sometimes it’s because they’re positioning for a deal and need grown-ups in the room. We don’t know which it is yet, and pretending otherwise is just theatre.

This morning’s hysteria does feel a bit seasonal, though. Something about December turns LSE into panto rehearsals. “He’s raising funds!” “Oh no he isn’t!” “Oh yes he is!”

Ah green text, let me guess, Fake PHD, something about paid ramping - remember Testy you ARE a proven liar. Lol, merry christmas.
