DERBY, UK, February 7, 2023 -- EuroSite Power Inc. (OTCPK: EUSP, the "Company") an On-Site Utility solutions provider, offering clean electricity, heat, hot water and cooling solutions to healthcare, hospitality, housing and leisure centers in the United Kingdom (UK) and Europe, today announced the formation of a new division to develop both grid scale and on-site, renewable energy generation solutions. This new division will initially operate alongside the current cogeneration business. Simultaneously, following a positive response to its Green CHP concept, the cogeneration division will focus its new business development activity on its hydrogen ready, Green CHP solution.
“The transition away from fossil fuels to renewables is accelerating at a pace, particularly in Europe as a result of high gas prices following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine”, explained Dr. Elias Samaras, Chief Executive of EuroSite Power. “Renewables present a major opportunity for the Company, but the Board also recognise that to be successful we must commit both the time and resources needed to develop our solutions and bring them to market. Having created a separate renewable energy division focused on this activity we have also started recruiting a team to both lead the Company’s transition to renewables and to deliver the first projects.”
Initially the Company will offer on-site, behind the meter solar PV solutions for corporate customers. These will provide customers with discounted, zero carbon electricity through a long-term, fully-funded, risk free solution based on the Company’s existing On-Site Utility agreement. In the longer-term the Company also plans to develop larger gird-scale renewable energy projects using a range of technologies including solar PV, wind and battery storage. While initial sales activity will be in the UK the Company is planning to develop projects in Europe and elsewhere. More information can be found at the Company’s website, www.eurositepower.com which has been updated to reflect the Company’s new business development in renewable energy generation.
Commenting on the announcement that the existing cogeneration division is to now focus on hydrogen-ready Green CHP, Chief Operations Officer, Paul Hamblyn said “Traditionally the carbon benefits of cogeneration have been based on the carbon footprint of the gas used by a CHP being less than that of the energy displaced from the electricity grid and existing boilers, but as the grid has decarbonised the carbon saving provided by CHP has reduced. By switching our cogeneration offer to focus on hydrogen-ready Green CHP we can now provide customer with a solution that immediately delivers significant carbon reductions while also ensuring that a new cogeneration system installed today is future proof”.
