Powerhouse Energy CEO Paul Emmitt on FTU progress & client interest

Proactive - Interviews for investors

Powerhouse Energy Group PLC (AIM:PHE) CEO Paul Emmitt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the recent developments surrounding the company’s Feedstock Testing Unit (FTU). Emmitt outlined the FTU’s evolution over the past six months, highlighting its progress from commissioning through to a full testing regime involving various feedstocks, including Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF), Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF), and even chicken litter. The company has tailored specific feedstock compositions to match client needs, including Australia-based National Hydrogen, by recreating those compositions in the UK. According to Emmitt, “We’ve tested that through on a number of occasions with very, very consistent results and results better than we’d really expected.” He confirmed that the unit’s improvements—especially modifications to the kiln’s exit end—have led to higher hydrogen ratios and reduced residue carryover. These results have increased interest from international clients, with visits scheduled in the coming weeks. Emmitt also discussed the potential for new revenue streams, including the sale of residue and heat recovery applications such as district heating or pre-treatment of feedstock. He referenced research from SP Angel that incorporated the upgraded system's performance. With the FTU now validated and operating reliably, Emmitt said the focus is on securing commercial agreements: “The next steps are for the team and I to get basically a signature on the dotted line.” He acknowledged the patience of shareholders and expressed optimism heading into the final quarter of 2025, noting that while the year may have seemed quiet externally, substantial progress had been made behind the scenes.
