AIM - WINNERS

Powerhouse Energy Group PLC, up 26% at 1.23 pence, 12-month range 0.23p-1.35p. The waste-to-energy conversion firm lands a patent in the UK. It concerns the ‘treatment of waste producing recirculated combustible’. ‘This patent gives intellectual property protection in the UK around the utilisation of recirculated synthesis gas to heat one or more chambers and the utilisation of recirculated synthesis gas to provide electrical power via a gas generator to increase the efficiency of the process and allow the process to be ’self-sustaining’ when in operation, by removing the reliance on an external gas source,’ it says. It lauds the patent award as ‘another significant milestone’.
