PHE
Clean Technology Driving Regional Investment
Potential
We’re pleased to announce a major step forward in the commercialisation of Powerhouse Energy (PHE) Group’s Distributed Modular Generation (DMG) Technology.
A site has been secured on Silverwood Business Park in Ballymena, Northern Ireland (NI) on which we have submitted a planning application for a 40 tonnes per day (TPD) waste-to-hydrogen facility.
This will be an investment of more than £30million and create around 24 full time direct roles as well as opportunities for local companies to supply required services, such as maintenance etc.
The project will reduce waste to landfill and aid in the decarbonisation targets of NI. The waste-to-hydrogen facility when completed will represent a sustainable solution that will provide much needed employment in the area.
The PHE facility will convert 40 TPD of non-recyclable waste, destined for landfill into power, heat and hydrogen. The facility is designed to be low emission, low impact, and self-sufficient.
The facility will utilise our fully patented DMG system, a pilot unit of which is in operation at the PHE Technical Centre in Bridgend, South Wales.
To keep up to date with the project, the planning application can be found here.

“Waste is an ongoing issue in the UK, and as our landfills become full and we reduce the export of waste, PHE provides a solution to sit alongside the current energy from waste infrastructure that can provide a low-emission alternative to fossil fuels.”

Powerhouse Energy continues its strong relationship with Noage Energy, whose proactive support has been central to advancing our Ballymena waste-to-hydrogen project and wider opportunities.
As we progress toward the development of the facility at Ballymena, Noage will continue to provide valuable support across site engagement, permissions, feedstock discussions and local offtake pathways by being the PHE point of contact in NI.
“We wish to congratulate Powerhouse Energy Group on the signing of their agreement for the Ballymena site and look forward to continuing to work closely with Powerhouse to develop this and other viable projects across Ireland.”
Jonathan McKernaghan, Director of Noage Energy
