Powerhouse Energy Group PLC

Welcome to Powerhouse Energy Group Plc. Our proprietary technology converts the widest range of waste products into syngas, which then can be used in various ways including electricity, heat, biofuels, synthetic gases and low carbon hydrogen. We prevent pollution and minimise climate change, so have a strong ESG offering.

What does Powerhouse do?

Powerhouse Technology processes waste into new products such as gaseous and liquid fuels, electrical power, heating, and cooling, and is at the forefront of hydrogen production from plastics. We develop our own facilities and sell the products they produce but are happy to work in partnership to provide our technology to others.

The outputs from the Powerhouse Technology can be built to suit customer needs such as:

  • Energy rich syngas as chemical precursors for industry
  • Electrical Power
  • Heat or Cooling
  • Hydrogen at 99.999’% purity – sustainable at point of use road fuel quality
Energy products from the synthesis gasplus more GASES POWER HEAT LIQUIDFUELS Heated in a Thermal Conversion Chamber in absence of air (pyrolysis) Non-recyclable waste Powerhouse Technology deploys pyrolysis that converts the feedstock to a synthesis gas or “syngas”. The mixture of gases produced depends on the composition of the feedstock, but carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2) are the most predominant, with methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen (N2) are also usually present. These gases can be separated out – as in the case of trademarked Powerhouse’s DMG Technology that generates hydrogen – turned into other products such a liquid fuels or chemical building blocks, or the syngas used as a fuel in its own right. The syngas can be used in different ways to produce electricity. Following cleaning and conditioning, it can be used a fuel directly in a spark ignition gas engine that drives an electrical generator. Alternatively, it can be burnt in a gas boiler to generate steam, which in turn can drive a steam turbogenerator. Either way, electricity can be produced to drive the parasitic load of the facility itself, and depending on the downstream processes deployed, exported to the local electrical distribution network. As the process is exothermal, there is always heat available, and the decision is how best to use it. Powerhouse Technology can supply heat through a distributed heat network to provide industrial or residential space heating or at higher temperatures and pressures for process heating used in manufacturing or other industrial processes. If no network is available, the system is designed to maximise the heat recovery to raise the efficiency of the system. Powerhouse’s DMG Technology has the ability to depolymerise plastics, breaking it down to the basic monomer chemical building blocks. This opens the door to chemical recycling. By adjusting the temperature of the pyrolysis and including additional process equipment, Powerhouse Technology is also able to produce liquid fuels, including sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
