Posted at 02/8/2007 18:24 by alister7 I just wonder whether the announcement today indicates that the funding deal has been done. Not sure that Severn trent would have agreed any deal with CPO unless they thought that their finances were in order. Wishfull thinking perhaps?Can't keep us waiting much longer surely. |
Posted at 14/2/2007 15:56 by mg78 Hello All - A long-time follower of CPO but as yet do not hold a position. Just a note to say Radio 4 had an interesting feature on CPO today. Available to listen again on the net if anyone is interested.V.quiet here. Suprisingly so. Bye for now. M.G. |
Posted at 27/11/2006 21:58 by k38 Wonder if cpo can do something about this... |
Posted at 23/11/2006 08:22 by spiv 1 More great news. This could be rolled out across the rest of the navy plus other navies and ships. Very scaleable. Looks like cpo is on a real roll now. |
Posted at 15/11/2006 16:47 by spiv 1 Gilts. Its not just the electricity produced plus the heat to be used by industry, its the fact that it is a way of dealing with rubbish other than landfill. CPO are also developing a biomass technology to 'burn' crops to produce electricity. It is of course 'small beer' but so is the market cap of the company. Lots of risk but potentially lots of upside. |
Posted at 15/11/2006 11:48 by spiv 1 Just looked at the CPO website. There is a nice article there from Recycle.com with a bit more info. The new £20m plant will also produce heat that will be used by industries in the area as well as the elctricity generating part of it. Lets just hope this time cpo can come through on the timescale promised. If so, the next few weeks will be very interesting. |
Posted at 15/11/2006 11:18 by spiv 1 Gilts, why do you care? Personally I'm investing in CPO for 2 reasons:1. To make money!!! 2. I believe it is an environmentally friendly technology so is a good thing to back. |
Posted at 15/11/2006 10:05 by spiv 1 Gilts, its DEFRA not DEVRA. It is true that CPO have a poor reputation for saying one thing and then not coming through with it. That said, the original funding for the new Avonmouth site through Balkan Engineering got bogged down with legal problems. Not really the fault of CPO. Essentially Balkan Engineering welched out of it and so CPO had to find an alternative. Hats off to them that they have and also that they have secured £5m from DEFRA. I spoke to Richard Hogg at CPO a couple of days ago, and he was adamant there would be news in the next couple of weeks on funding completion. I guess time will tell. |
Posted at 15/11/2006 00:08 by spiv 1 I appreciate its old but it is very clean. The naval refit is occuring on HMS Ocean. It may then be rolled out to the other ships. As for government funding, the new plant (if I remember correctly will cost £18m) so its hardly surprising they may need some help. The issue as far as I am aware is that the technology has never been scaled up to a large plant so it comes with a high level of risk, which perhaps may explain the lack of institutional backing. That said, cpo has received institutional backing over the last 2 years (check the rns releases). Subjective and objective?? check the last results which as far as I can remember show that the small plant is profitable (though of course not cpo as a whole). Well, interesting banter |
Posted at 14/11/2006 21:47 by spiv 1 Well I think the government subsidy side of things is another issue. The government is going to use taxes and the price mechanism to persuade/force local authorities and businesses to look at waste alternatives/reduced greenhouse gas emissions and the cpo technology is one option. The existing plant is Bristol, although small is now profitable so I'm not sure what you mean about the larger site not being able to make money. CPO has also developed an ocean based waste system which is being fitted to Royal navy vessels. No doubt cpo will gain some sort of royalty from this as well. Don't get me wrong, cpo is high risk and I its not for widows or orphans but it is one of the cleanest technologies that exist at the moment and as such it has a fair chance of being rolled out both nationally and internationally. The fact that we are only a small contributor globally to Co2 emissions is true but what relevance has that to the investment story here?? |
