from Graham. At least now we have a rough time line to expect news on Uskmouth, being Q3 of this year.
I fully anticipate Uskmouth to be given the green light. I struggle to believe that any government would refuse to green light a waste to energy project which, although not net zero carbon emissions, is still far more environmentally friendly than fossil Fuels.... thus a step in the right direction. Given COP26 is being held in the UK this year, I'd imagine each nation will want to flex their muscles and boast about their flagship projects.
Meygen Phase 2 to commence...... I also anticipate the government will release funding for this. Phase 1 has proved a great success, so it wouldn't make sense to reject any proposals made by Simec. We are leading the world in Tidal Energy and Boris will want to leave his stamp on this. Phase 2 is going to be huge.
The Hydro Division doesn't get enough attention imo but is as important as the other divisions. Great to see progress being made at Glen Kinglass and Loch Etive.
Overall, great things ahead for us and as always, the key question will be funding. Is another fundraising likely? I think so, but I have no issues with that, providing the money is being spent in the right way. Simec isn't a company who sits on their hands and is happy to take money of shareholders. They're ambitious, have proven what they're capable of and have a detailed plan of what's to come.
I'm heavily invested here but I plan to add more at these levels as and when I can. I'm averaging just shy of 11p atm
