Yes the low-tech nature of EGX's boiler is a major selling point for investors IMO
Posted at 09/2/2011 16:31 by kooba
never been a p.i. stock ...sensible non puffy management just getting on with clearing the hurdles to commercialisation where we are now...as any initial order for the kingston system could run into 100,000's units we could see a quick jump to meaningful revenues...pnu looks a no brainer for uninteruptable power market against the current lead acid systems..could take longer for industry adoption but would see a j/v route with global partner as the way forward there.both kingston and vphase could be big beneficiaries of hmg or european legislation on energy efficiency in the home so well placed.think the company could do a lot more to get itself out there and bring some new investors in...but am hoping for an exciting ride this year.mini pdx imho !!

I had some of these a couple of years ago, sold out at 80p for a 30% loss. I am very surprised to see them down at 23p, seems to me like the company has two pretty good products (and a stake in another one, VPHA, where the product is less impressive and perhaps overvalued). I always thought that the fact that they were relatively low-tech would be a major advantage, more reliable and less maintenance, while still IP-protected. Certainly there seems to be interest in the products from good-sized customers. I suppose the point is that until they make actual sales it will be difficult to gauge take-up and potential cashflows, so as to assign a reasonable share price I think there is a good prospect of re-rating here in the medium term, but in the current market climate perhaps investors are just needing to see sales figures. Perhaps the collapse of VPHA's share price has affected confidence too.

Article from November 'Quoted Cleantech'

Time to start selling
The share price of energy efficiency company VPhase has had a poor run in recent months, despite the business having passed several milestones this year. Shares in VPhase, which are quoted on London's Alternative Investment Market, slid during the summer from more than 8.5p each to less than 5p by late October.

VPhase began sales of its first product, VX1, after having achieved CE certification – a prerequisite for electrical appliances before they can be sold in the UK and mainland Europe – in June. VPhase has agreements in place with British Gas Services and Scottish and Southern Energy to trial and commercialise the VX1 Smart Voltage Management device. The company also got approval from the UK's energy regulator Ofgem earlier this year to trial the device under the Government's Carbon Emissions Reduction Target scheme.

The VX1 device uses a straightforward technique to reduce energy consumption in households and small businesses. It exploits the fact that voltages supplied to homes and businesses vary in order to ensure that the electricity distribution network operates effectively.

Across Europe, voltages generally vary between 208V and 253V, with the UK's electricity network having a typical average voltage of around 245V. Because of this variation household appliances are required to operate at the lower end of the voltage range, which means that the electricity entering a household or business can be regulated at the fuse box to a lower voltage, so reducing energy consumption.

VX1 works in a similar way to noise-cancelling headphones, creating a small, anti-phase voltage to reduce the incoming voltage to the building to 220V. So, if the incoming voltage is 243V, it applies an opposite voltage of 23V. This means that a household or small business can save around 10% of electricity usage simply by fitting VX1 to its fuse box.

Having done everything it had to do in order to be able to sell the product legally in the UK and Europe, VPhase now faces its biggest question of all: will householders and businesses buy VX1?

CE certification for VX1 arrived too late to make much of a difference to VPhase's interim results, covering the six-month period to the end of June. The company generated first half revenues of just £60,000 (H1 2008: £0), along with an increased loss of £412,000 (H1 2008: £356,000), so investors' eyes will be on the second half to see if VX1 is the company-maker that VPhase's management believes it should be.

As well as its development of sales channels via utility companies SSE and British Gas, VPhase is developing relationships with electrical goods manufacturers and distributors, housing associations and local housing authorities. Meanwhile, it has established a website and sales hotline, as well as promoting VX1 at trade shows like London's Ecobuild. VX1 has also been featured in the press and on television in the UK.

Of course, VPhase is not alone in the voltage optimisation market. For example, fellow AIM-quoted firm Cinpart owns a subsidiary, Active Energy, which sells a device called VoltageMaster that is targeted at larger, non-domestic applications such as municipal buildings, factories and commercial offices. Meanwhile, other devices that compete directly with VPhase's VX1 have been on the market for some time.

In VPhase's favour is the simplicity of its VX1 device, a stand-alone product that can be readily fitted alongside a household fuse box by any qualified electrician. Also, the company believes that the market for voltage optimisation devices is set to boom as the UK Government wants to roll out related energy efficiency devices, such as smart meters, across 26 million homes and several million businesses over the next decade.

For the immediate future, VPhase needs to show that the product is selling in the short term if its share price is to recover to levels seen earlier this year. A failure to shift VX1 boxes during H2 2009 would not be catastrophic for the business, which had balance sheet cash of £2.5 million (equivalent to 0.4p per share) at the end of June, but it would add to the nervousness already shown by investors in the company during the summer and autumn.

A useful way for investors to get exposure to VPhase, without banking on the whole business, is via Energetix – an AIM-quoted energy efficiency business that owns around 49% of VPhase's shares. Energetix has two other subsidiaries that follow a low-risk strategy of focusing on smart, robust technologies rather than 'cutting edge' science. These are Genlec and Pnu Power.

Genlec has designed a low-cost, wall-hung, micro-CHP (combined heat and power) device for the home. Although it operates like a normal domestic boiler, when the device is heating the home, or the home's hot water supply, it also generates electricity – saving the average homeowner around £200 off his annual electricity bill.

Genlec has relationships with several boiler manufacturers and power utilities, giving it the potential to access all the major European boiler markets. In particular, the company has a product supply agreement with European boiler manufacturer Daalderop that is targeting sales of at least 30,000 Genlec micro-CHP units to the Dutch and Belgian heating markets over the next three years.

Pnu Power has developed a new type of battery for uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), which are used to protect critical systems from interruptions in electricity supply. The battery works by using compressed air, and the company claims that its performance exceeds that of conventional batteries in terms of both cost and reliability.

Pnu Power has already received orders from the South African utility Eskom, P&E Automation in San Diego and Telecom Italia.

In stark contrast to VPhase, Energetix's share price has done very well since the spring. In May, the company's shares were changing hands for as little as 28p each, but they were trading for around 55p each in late October.

Energetix: worth the sum of its parts?
by Jon Mainwaring


The worldwide financial crisis has been responsible for frightening plenty of investors away from the stock market. Of course, the most common way of judging how frightened investors are of equities is by looking at the performance of stock market indices over the past couple of years, but another sign that investors must still be scared to death of equities is the number of companies out there with market caps below net asset value and/or cash holdings.

The phenomenon of large numbers of companies being valued well below their net asset value was last seen during the dot.com boom, when shares in many firms were trading below their cash value. This was because plenty of firms had been able to raise huge sums not long before the market turned sceptical of Internet-based business models.

However, although many listed dot.com and Internet-related software firms did in fact quickly burn through their cash piles and disappear, there are today several firms that not only survived the bursting of the dot.com bubble but have since thrived.

Of course, many of these companies have since been taken private because management and owners recognised value where the market would not. But it is worth remembering that FTSE-100 firm Autonomy, which makes search software, saw its share price trade as low as 91.25 pence amid the dot.com doom and gloom of 2002 before their long, steady rise to today's price of more than £14 (although this is still way off its flotation price of £32.76 in November 2000 when it floated on the London Stock Exchange).

One sector that saw plenty of fund raisings before the recent financial crisis has been the clean energy industry. But today, as clean energy indices such as the Envirodaq index have reached all-time lows, there are several clean energy businesses whose shares are now trading well below net asset value. One such firm is Energetix Group.

Energetix is an Alternative Investment Market-quoted developer of 'new energy' products that are based on what it describes as robust, proven technologies. By focusing on distributed generation and energy storage, it has already grown three subsidiaries that develop and commercialise new products in these markets.

The first of these subsidiaries, VPhase, itself joined AIM in September 2007 via a reverse takeover. Today, it has a market capitalisation of approximately £44m and Energetix still retains 49% of the business. Yet, despite the stake in VPhase being currently valued by the market at £21m and Energetix's cash balance of £11m (equivalent to 20 pence per share) at the end of last year, the group's current share price of 28.5 pence values the entire group at just £15.7m.

According to Ken Rumph, an analyst focusing on climate change-related companies for investment bank Noble, VPhase is a tightly-held share and not traded much. This could explain some of the discrepancy in the firms' respective valuations, but it does seem odd that the market is placing a combined value of Energetix's stake in VPhase and its other subsidiaries of under £5m – especially since VPhase recently launched its first product while the two other businesses are also close to becoming fully commercialised.

VPhase exemplifies Energetix's overall low-risk strategy of focusing on smart, robust technologies rather than "cutting edge" science. Its first product, VX1, is a simple device that uses a straightforward technique to reduce energy consumption in households and small businesses.

The VX1 device exploits the fact that voltages supplied to homes and businesses vary in order to ensure that the electricity distribution network works effectively.

Across Europe, voltages generally vary between 208V and 253V with the UK's electricity network having a typical average voltage of around 245V. Because of this variation household appliances are required to operate at the lower end of the voltage range, and this means that the electricity entering a household or business can be regulated at the fuse box to a lower voltage, so reducing energy consumption.

VX1 works in a similar way to noise-cancelling headphones, creating a small, anti-phase voltage to reduce the incoming voltage to the building to 220V. So, if the incoming voltage is 243V, it applies an opposite voltage of 23V. This means that a household or business can save around 10% of electricity usage just by fitting VX1 to its fuse box.

Already, VPhase has agreements in place with British Gas Services and Scottish and Southern Energy to trial and commercialise the VX1 device. And in January energy regulator Ofgem gave approval for the trialling of VX1 under the UK government's Carbon Emissions Reduction Target scheme, so the device will be trialled in a number of Scottish and Southern Energy's customers' homes (the cost of the trial is being met by Scottish and Southern).


Energetix's other two businesses are Genlec and Pnu Power.

Genlec has designed a low-cost, wall-hung, micro-CHP (combined heat & power) device for the home. Although it operates like a normal domestic boiler, when it is heating the home, or the home's hot water supply, it also generates electricity – saving the average homeowner around £200 off their annual electricity bill.

Genlec now has six relationships with boiler manufacturers and power utilities, giving it the potential to access all the major European boiler markets. In particular, the company has a product supply agreement with European boiler manufacturer Daalderop that is targeting sales of at least 30,000 Genlec micro-CHP units to the Dutch and Belgium heating markets over the next three years.

Pnu Power has developed a new type of battery for uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), which are used to protect critical systems from interruptions in electricity supply. Its battery works by using compressed air, and the company claims that its performance exceeds that of conventional batteries both in terms of cost and reliability.

Pnu Power has already received orders from the South African utility Eskom, P&E Automation in San Diego and Telecom Italia.

Certainly, all three of Energetix's subsidiaries are still at an early stage of commercialisation and there is always the prospect that none of these businesses becomes a success in the long term. But investors looking to benefit from a growing focus on energy efficiency by utilities and consumers might see the discrepancy between the respective valuations of Energetix and its 49%-owned subsidiary VPhase as a tantalising opportunity.

yep, 'strange' it's got a mkt cap of £33m but nms is only 1000 .... but at the start of the year it wasn't too difficult to get over nms without problem....
think the potential of both the EGX product lines is becoming apparent to some investors now .... should certainly be interesting as they come to commercialization and they become more 'high profile' ....

Mentioned in smalltalk of the independent today


"Energetix excites

During the tail end of last year, Small Talk highlighted Energetix as an exciting prospect in the alternative energy arena.

Today the AIM company should have some good news for investors. Small Talk has learned that Energetix has started initial field trials of its Genlec product - an ingenious gadget which when placed inside an ordinary domestic boiler provides consumers with electricity, in addition to traditional water and central heating. It is estimated that Genlec saves the average household between £150 and £200 per year on its combined gas and electricity bill.

If the final trials, expected to take five months, prove successful, consumers will get the chance to test Genlec for themselves."

Admitted to AIM 15aug06 after placing at 12.5m ordinary shares and 2.5m EIS shares at 40p, raising £5.4m and giving a mkt.cap of ~£18m.

EGX has been in existence for a few years, during which time it has made good progress on its two main products:
- domestic combined heat and power (CHP) 'boiler'
- uninterruptible power supply (UPS) based on compressed air

Good introduction in the AIM admission RNS -
That includes a description of its competition, and its relative merits.
(re-launched 8feb07)

Recommendation in Growth Company Investor as 'speculative buy', 15oct07, at 126.5p
