PHE can't build a DMG unit at Protos in isolation. Although the idea of the Plastic Park is a great concept with a jigsaw of facilities each feeding into another, this is also a drawback at the construction and installation stage because it all has to come together, like little ducks lining up. The plastic recycling facility that I believe PHE were expecting to get their feedstock from hasn't even got funding yet, and was supposed to be operational in summer 2022. And no off-take for hydrogen as the hydrogen refuelling station for HGVs that Peel was expecting to install at Protos hasn't materialised, and may not be seen for some time, if ever. So there really isn't anything that PHE can do at Protos on its own, until the other facilities get organised.
