They could rocket weds on intrims

Ceres Power Holdings plc ("Ceres", "Ceres Power" or "the Company") Boiler tuning/calibration solution approved and implemented Ceres Power reports that it has successfully deployed a solution for the boiler tuning/calibration issue identified in the current wave of field trials. At its Interim Results presentation, the Company reported that initial results from the first wave of five field trial products, installed and operated in a range of occupied family homes, had highlighted an intermittent system reliability issue involving boiler tuning/calibration within the CHP product. In some cases this caused the boiler to automatically lock-out after ignition. As with standard boilers today, if the ignition sequence is not successful after three attempts, then the boiler locks-out, requiring a manual re-set. The engineered solution, involving a new release of software, has been developed in collaboration with Ceres Power's supply chain partners. The improved software has been approved by Kiwa Gastec as complying with the Company's existing CE safety certificate. The Company has now tested the solution and validated that it does satisfactorily resolve the identified boiler tuning/calibration issue and has now uploaded this new software to all CHP products in the field trial, confirming the solution works in occupied homes. The Company is making good progress towards resolving the other reliability and durability issues identified from the field trials and expects to update the market on the progress in addressing these issues during the summer. The company will obtain confirmation that any software or hardware changes made are in compliance with the current CE safety certificate and will implement the solutions across the CHP units deployed in the field trials.

The noise accompanying Ceres Power has been getting louder in the past year as the market switches on to what could be a revolution in the way we heat and light our homes. Expect the decibel level to go up a few notches in the next week or so, as City analysts and the press are invited to scrutinise the firm's breakthrough innovation - a gas boiler that simultaneously meets 90% of domestic electricity needs. When I first heard of the technology, I have to say I was a little dubious. electricity, water and gas - quite a lethal combination. The idea that my new domestic boiler could supply my radiators while simultaneously juicing up the kettle, telly and multiple appliances put me in mind of eccentric Victorian inventions that crashed and burned - literally in some cases. Ceres' breakthrough has been to transfer the fuel cells into the heart of a wall-mounted boiler that can be fitted by a Corgi registered plumber. Peter Bance, boss of the Aim-listed firm, says the efficiency of the system is stunning, with 90% of what's pumped into the system coming out the other end as heat and electricity. Compare that with the average power station, where two-thirds of the energy disappears up the smoke stack. Of course, there is a difference between having a whizbang idea and turning it into hard cash. That is why the group has been working with suppliers, component manufacturers and most importantly potential vendors of the CHP system for several years. Relationships with blue chip, firms such as Centrica's British Gas, which will sell and fit the CHP system, BOC and French utility EDF, offer it a clear path to market. 'From the very outset we had a ruthlessly commercial focus and quickly got traction with potential customers,' says Bance. The market is huge and working with British Gas could give Ceres a decent slice of it. An estimated 1.5m boilers are replaced every year at a cost of around £4bn. Capturing a small proportion of that would turn Ceres into a seriously profitable business. Bance expects to price the CHP at a 'modest premium' to existing boilers, which currently retail at around £2,500 to £3,000. He reckons that will be an easy sell given the CHP unit will pay for itself from huge savings on electricity. 'We want to price this device at a level most people find attractive, where it doesn't just appeal to techno-geeks and environmental hippies,' he says. When can we expect Ceres to start making some money? It already has modest income from 'build and evaluation' contracts. It hopes to have its first plant up and running some time in 2009. It has chosen September 11 to demonstrate its wall-mountable combined heat and power unit - a huge landmark because Ceres can now prove the technology works. All that remains is to show the system can be mass produced and sold in the quantities projected by analysts. It is still a big ask and there is room for failure. However, the tieup wit

After a decade of development, Ceres Power working in partnership with British Gas are now set to start trialling the technology in homes across the country. These trials involve simply replacing traditional boilers with the Ceres home energy unit, with the result that the ‘box on the wall’ still produces hot water and heating but now also generates most of the home’s electricity. With a £20m investment from British Gas to help finance the trial, and plans to install over 40,000 units in the next few years, Ceres Power is really capitalising on its green growth potential, and is leading the world with its technology. The Society of British Gas Industries estimate that 30pc of new domestic boilers could be using the technology by 2015. With 1.5million boilers replaced every year in the UK alone, and over 30million a year replaced globally, Ceres Power has the potential to be a real leader in exporting smart British green technology around the world. Working with the Carbon Trust Ceres Power have been working with the Carbon Trust since the 2001, receiving both finance and expert advice to help develop and commercialise the technology. In December 2003 Carbon Trust Investments Ltd became a shareholder in Ceres Power enabling it to further test and develop its product. Since then we have provided two R&D grants to help fund product development Peter Bance, Managing Director of Ceres Power, said “Ceres Power started in 2001 with a material science breakthrough in electrochemistry. We have now become a recognised leader in cleantech with our residential CHP product now entering field trials in the UK, having received CE approval. Since the company was founded we have secured tens of millions of pounds of investment from strategic partners like British Gas and our other blue chip shareholders.

Figures from the renewable energy industry body RenewableUK suggest this investment is boosting employment. Full-time jobs in the sector grew by 91pc between 2007/8 and 2009/10, in contrast to overall UK employment, which shrank by 3.4pc in the same period. The potential in the coming decades is greater still. By 2050 offshore wind could be worth £65billion to the UK and could support 220,000 jobs. The UK could develop a clear global lead in offshore wind, according to Benj Sykes, director of innovations at the Carbon Trust. “With offshore wind there’s a new generation of technology that’s up for grabs. I don’t believe the Danes, Germans or Norwegians have any de facto lead here.” While wind is the immediate prize, the UK is ideally placed to develop, commercialise and deploy a number of other new green technologies with global export potential, said Mr Sykes. “The move to a low-carbon economy offers huge scope for developing new industries, goods and services. Marine energy, either tidal or wave, has the potential to employ a further 17,000 people and could enable us to capture a new global export market.” Energy efficiency drives, such as the Government’s plans to “decarbonise” the nation’s building stock, will create further new business and jobs. The UK is also leading the research and development effort in transportable power systems, such as fuel cells, that might one day drive the world’s cars, said Mr Sykes. West Sussex-based Ceres Power is hoping to be just such a global winner. Its innovative and highly efficient combined heat and power units, which generate electricity, hot water and space heating for homes by converting natural gas using fuel-cell technology, have the potential to shave hundreds of pounds a year from household utility bills. British Gas has ordered 37,000 units, Ceres is on the verge of going into large scale production and the potential market is vast, said the firm’s chief executive officer, Peter Bance. “Today 1.5million boilers are replaced each year in the UK and we can attack most of that market. “Goldman Sachs has said that the global market for this kind of product could be 30 million products a year. Beyond that we could exploit the technology in other sectors, for example for use in backup and auxiliary power units.”

Think this will have another surge upwards Monday and tuesday now they have solved the problems. Can see 70p short term with a bit of retrace after profit taking but who knows, this was in the £1.20's only a few months ago!!!GL.

are aboad then im glad I am!!! still think 60p+ easily if not more by close today. This will atract the big weekend papers too so Monday will be another very big blue day!..

Thanks mate av a good one..this is going only one way for a good while yet!!..GL

I think the weekend press, Proactive, iii and others will latch onto this over the weekend again and monday opening could be anything in the range of 70 to £1 no trouble. Wish i had more cash!!..

Yes Mate it does seem a steal at these prices, I bet BG wish they had waited!!!.. This is a stock I would put big money in and sleep well at nite!!..not many about these days!.

I mean if it gets any volume then even a £1 short term is not out the question, ive not got lv2 but volume indicator on sp.co.uk is only showing 168k!!!!! imagine if it had just a mil buys!! anyway ive jumped in with ava funds, this looks good to me.
