                          PowerHouse Energy Group plc 
                        ("PowerHouse" or "the Company") 
 
                          G3-UHt Demonstration Update 
 
PowerHouse Energy Group plc (AIM: PHE), the company focused on ultra high 
temperature gasification waste-to-hydrogen, waste-to-energy, and the creator of 
Distributed Modular Gasification© (DMG) systems, is pleased to announce that 
after the recent successful re-commissioning and high-temperature operation of 
the Company's G3-UHt DMG module (the "Unit"), the Company has commenced a 
programme of demonstrations of the technology, testing of various feed stocks 
and operational parameters, and in-depth analysis of the synthesis gas (syngas) 
constituents. 
 
It is expected that the demonstrator Unit at Thornton Science Park will be run 
for an extended period during August in anticipation of a full week of 
operation in September.  During these operational segments the engineering and 
development teams will be collecting data from a variety of sources integrated 
throughout the Unit.  Subsequent to operation the Unit will be thoroughly 
inspected and all relevant data reviewed. 
 
Concurrent with the regular operation of the demonstrator Unit, collected data 
will be fed into process models for the basis of design for the first 
commercial unit to be constructed.  The engineering team has begun this design 
effort. 
 
It is anticipated that public demonstrations for interested parties, including 
investors, will be held in September and the Company will provide further 
details in due course. 
 
David Ryan, Powerhouse Executive Director of Programme Development and 
responsible for overseeing all Company activities at Thornton Science Park, 
said: "This is the beginning of an exciting time for PowerHouse.  We now have 
the tools, the talent, and the G3-UHt in operation to allow us to develop DMG 
into a commercial reality.  We are taking a thoughtful and conservative 
approach to getting the full-scale design right first time.  This will save us 
development time and cost in the long run. 
 
"This cannot mean reducing effort, indeed, we are growing the team to 
facilitate 24/7 operations in the near term."
