EnergyPathways PLC (AIM:EPP) CEO Ben Clube talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent developments on the MESH project, a major initiative designated as a project of national significance in the UK. This designation enables the project to progress under a streamlined development consent order process, helping to reduce approval risks and delays. Clube explained that the company has formally submitted a gas storage license application covering both natural gas and hydrogen elements.
He highlighted the project’s significant scalability, with plans for up to 60 large-scale salt caverns to store energy. “We’ve got an eye to the scalability of what we’re doing here,” Clube noted, adding that energy storage is a core challenge for the UK’s energy security and affordability.
Clube also discussed the commercial potential of methane pyrolysis and hydrogen technologies being developed with KBR, Hazer, and Siemens Energy. He expressed confidence in reaching commercial scale by 2030, stating, “We’re doing it, and we’re leading the way in the UK.”
On the Siemens Energy front, Clube said the current non-binding agreement is a pathway to a formal long-term contract, likely by the start of the new year. He also confirmed that multiple revenue streams—including synthetic graphite and long-duration energy storage—are under evaluation, with a clearer funding picture expected in early 2026.
