Maybe good PR, but I am sure the cost would be both prohibitive and also not worth the PR to PHE, due to the fact that first they don't yet have a DMG up and running, and second that they don't need free plastic as I am certain it has been mentioned that councils and other plastic/tyre dump owners will be willing to pay for their waste disposal.

Whilst I agree that it's good re some posters sending/forwarding info re the AFC EV charger to fleet users, motorway service stations and the like, I would love to see AFC literature regarding their EV charger being situated in every vehicle franchise in the country, even those that as yet do not promote electric vehicles. Probably not reasonable at present, but in 2-3 years when AFC is far more geared along it's EV production line,

No doubt many customers purchasing combustion engined vehicles will probably be thinking along the lines of 'my next vehicle will be electric or/and hydrogen propelled'.

Whilst i appreciate this topic has been discussed before on the AFC board, I think the following puts the dangers/safety of hydrogen in context better than I have read previously.

Re planning permission.

I will not name the company as I do not wish to be sued, but several years ago a company opened business premises near where I live, without planning permission.
They literally told the county council that they could go ahead and sue, but they would be wasting their time and money.

Research showed that this company had a reputation for taking over business premises and changing business use, then applying for such permission retrospectively.

It is obvious that many big companies take the same attitude.

Not saying in any way that Peel is one such company, but as my old dad used to say, money talks, big money shouts.

In my opinion, and not for any reasons about, planning permission for the proposed PHE site, is a forgone conclusion.

Peterperfect,

Yes, thanks it is the Hornsea wind farm mentioned.

Did not catch the full story, but a huge hydrogen production system has been approved for go ahead off the Humber (hull).

As AFC are now tied into an agreement with HiiRoc situated only a few miles from Hull docks, could this all point to AFC having some inkling about both this and the chance of Hull becoming a free port IE attracting all those businesses that could be potential customers of AFC.

Depends on just how good the news is. Sometimes (but not often) it's better than the rumour.

Hi Stokey12,

Like you not sure where the plastic feedstock will come from, but i read an article sometime in early December last year, that most county councils are having difficulty finding sufficient space to dump/store none recyclable plastics, and that will only be getting more difficult after having to receive returned plastics from foreign shores. We also know of course the problem with dump/stored tyres.
So I don't think lack of feed stock will be a problem, but yes some clarification would help.

This post is not to promote a discussion for or against (I have my own strong views).

As I understand it the plans are for the trains to get their power from overhead electric power lines, these lines supplying power from several new build supply terminals.

As the first train to run is not looking to be earlier than 2028/31 surely by then overhead electricity supply will be well and truly dead.

Just imagine HS2 fully supplied power via a fuel cell, powered by Hydrogen supplied by a Powerhouse DMG.

Just a thought.................

From 5.05% to 9.35%, a very unusual holding increase of almost double, with no sign of any awaited RNS.

Something they know and we don't.

Agreed, but the jack hammer and angle grinders are used for a very small percentage of a construction/build, whereas generators are going most of the time, especially on the bigger sites.

I appreciate that the benefits of quieter, less polluting hydrogen generators on building sites in many areas will be a plus to all constructors and residents.
I have just returned from a weeks break abroad. When we were looking to book we were informed that the Hotel we had chosen was next to a building plot where a new hotel was being built. Obviously we booked elsewhere but in the same resort.
We went to look at our initial choice for the future, and the noise was horrendous, mainly with jack hammers, but this was short term.
Very noisy and smelly diesel generators were going most of the day and the hotel we had initially looked at was almost empty.
We met a few people who had either not been warned of the disruption, or chanced staying there and they confirmed that the hotel was struggling to survive and had even planned to close for 3 months (they always close for 4 weeks ever year to spruce the hotel up).
The above goes to show that its not just the benefits a hydrogen/ammonia powered generator can bring to the user, but how it can also financially benefit the community at large.
Hopefully such benefits will be looked at by both councils and planners, perhaps in a few years when these new style generators get more into the market place, making the use of such, part of the planning application being accepted.

May be wrong, but vaguely remember a lead time of 9 months being mentioned.

Anyone out there who can confirm.

Hydrogen Fuel News just out.

AFC not mentioned by name but the article is very positive re investments in fuel cell companies.

Looking at the way the sp is acting, it is following yesterdays trend.

Yesterday, after zooming upward to around 30%, I must admit I was tempted to take some profit, hoping to buy back on any dip., shortly after the sp dropped to around 20%.
I though I had made the wrong decision to hold, but we all know where the day finished, sp up plus 50%.

So today looking at not risking a sell, then buy back, will just look at the finish sp, and not be bothered if it is lower than the present price.

No idea where the sp will be in a week, month or even this time next year, but I think the odds of being far higher than today are very very good.

I obviously understand the licencing deal with Peal, but can someone clarify if PHE still will receive any revenue from either the price of the feed stock paid to receive (as stated several months ago, or/and the hydrogen produced.

The great thing is, attendees can first see the generator running on diesel, then on the fuel cell battery system, comparing both noise and pollutant levels.

As already stated in previous posts, many businesses that have either just purchased new diesel generators, or have such in good working condition are not going to suddenly change to the environmentally better system. But surely if they are as impressed as they should be, any new generators they purchase has to be a no brainer.

A quick re-read, and yes a hybrid. No doubt though it won't be long before its a fully contained none diesel generator.

Klunk,

Don't follow re hybrid (going out in 5 mins so will re-read the RNS on return)
