As I understand it "Cold commissioning" refers to the initial phase of testing and checking before it is fully operational. During this phase, the system is powered on but not yet processing actual materials or feedstock. It involves verifying that all components are installed correctly, performing basic tests (like checking wiring and insulation), and ensuring that auxiliary systems are functioning properly.
In the context of the announcement today it means that the Feedstock Testing Unit (FTU) has been mechanically completed and will in January undergo "hot testing" in January with actual waste materials.
In other words all going very well and I will get my invitation for a visit in February. |
Of course they know the technology works. They've operated a prototype at Thornton Park for years, which is where they got all of the data for building this one. |
Don’t you think that this a holding announcement bearing in mind they don’t actually know if it’s going to work. |
This is good news for HUI too. |
Sounds to me like Protos could well be back on the agenda. Happy days. |
Paul Emmitt, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"I am extremely pleased that we delivered this highly significant milestone for the Company. It is testament to both the PHE and Engsolve staff, their hard work and professionalism, that we have achieved this on schedule and on budget. The FTU has been something that I have championed since my involvement with PHE. Whilst we have had setbacks with our prior intended kiln manufacturer, we have overcome them to provide something tangible; an innovative facility that will allow us to showcase the DMG technology as well as our technical / engineering expertise as a Group as we look to deliver our vision for our shareholders."

"This year has been an eventful one. We have resolved our patent challenge, and had grant of UK, European and Japanese patents, we have signed an agreement with National Hydrogen of Australia and have now delivered mechanical completion of the FTU.
"Early 2025 will see us "hot" commission and test the FTU, whilst opening our doors to showcase our technology to investors as well clients and potential clients. We will also deliver the FEED for National Hydrogen, whilst further developing both the PHE and Engsolve offerings. There are also a number of old business opportunities to revisit as well as new ones to pursue for the team.
"I believe we enter 2025 in a stronger more positive position than that which we entered 2024. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders for their patience and support this year and look forward to an exciting 2025 for the Company." |
If it all goes to plan Phe will be " share of the year " 2025 |
They will have to run this beast for a few weeks before they pronounce its success. Fingers crossed for 2025 but feeling more hopeful than 12 months ago. |
I predicted they would not have a full size commercial unit built and certified in 2024, and I was right.I now predict they will not have a full size commercial unit built and certified in 2025.Lemmings and mushrooms only. |
Well if they don't deliver next week the least they should do is give you a reason why. |

Volume is up significantly today |
News of the demo unit is now imminent |
A lot to read but very interesting indeed. I’ve only scanned through briefly but page 40 (I think) onwards mentions plastic, hydrogen, heat, electricity etc all the boxes that Powerhouse ticks. One would have to assume we are almost certainly engaged in discussions behind the scenes to potentially deploy our technology in the north west. Makes me realise the magnitude of the UK patent value we now have which also now includes the EU and Japan. Roll on that imminent big fat juicy RNS. Merry Xmas!

Blue finish today… |
But what you keep failing to understand Graham ..... Powerhouse will license the DMG and it is the job of the company taking out the licence to organize planning. Or maybe you do ! |
...... until they consult further on the fuel tanks to transport the hydrogen from the factory. Health and safety protocols are no bad thing. |
Hydrogen project in Bridgend now on hold. |
Gonna blow any day now. Get in while you can. |
I added more today - looks like I moved the price up |
Some belief coming back to PHE . Things happening and progress is appearing at last . Train could soon leave the station |
Global plastic talks collapse as oil states rebel
More than nine billion tonnes of plastic has been produced globally with less than 10% recycled
