IMAGE RELEASED OF FACILITY WHERE DMG® TECHNOLOGY IS TO BE COMMERCIALISED
Powerhouse Energy Group plc (AIM: PHE), the UK technology company pioneering hydrogen production from waste plastic, has seen an image released by Peel L&P Environmental of the Plastic Park where its DMG technology is intended to be commercialised.
Peel L&P Environmental's Plastic Park will be an energy and resource hub situated on the existing 54-hectare Protos site. The facility will bring together large energy users with sources of low-carbon energy, and clusters together resource management technologies.
The Powerhouse Energy Group plc (AIM: PHE) DMG® technology is expected to form a significant part of the solution to unrecyclable plastics at the UK's first Plastic Park being developed by Peel L&P Environmental.
Consented earlier this year and already under development, the first commercial use of the technology at the Plastic Park is expected to start by the end of next year.
PowerHouse Energy and Peel L&P Environmental are collaborating to develop 11 waste plastic to hydrogen facilities across the UK. These Plastic Parks will revolutionise the way that plastic waste is currently handled.
Tim Yeo, Chairman of Powerhouse Energy Group said:
"We are delighted that our DMG technology is to play such a key role in Peel L&P Environmental's Plastic Park strategy. And we are particularly proud to be part of Protos as one of the key projects driving forward the net zero economy in the North West and part of the region's plan to become the first low carbon industrial cluster by 2030.
"Being on the Plastic Park will give us easier access to materials from other businesses on site that can then be turned into hydrogen and electricity. We can create value from what is otherwise a waste product. We're looking forward to opening the plastics to hydrogen facility next year, and welcoming neighbours that share our vision."

About Powerhouse Energy Group plc
Powerhouse has developed a proprietary process technology - DMG® - which can utilise waste plastic, end-of-life-tyres, and other waste streams to efficiently and economically convert them into syngas from which valuable products such as chemical precursors, hydrogen, electricity and other industrial products may be derived. The Powerhouse technology is one of the world's first proven, modular, hydrogen from waste (HfW) process.
The Powerhouse DMG® process can generate up to 2 tonnes of road-fuel quality H2, and more than 58MWh of exportable electricity per day.
The Powerhouse process produces low levels of safe residues and requires a small operating footprint, making it suitable for deployment at enterprise and community level.
Powerhouse is quoted on the London Stock Exchange's AIM Market under the ticker: PHE, and is incorporated in the United Kingdom.
