EnergyPathways, Siemens team up on MESH project

EnergyPathways PLC CEO Ben Clube talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a new collaboration with Siemens Energy to advance the MESH integrated energy storage project. This marks a significant milestone for the company as Siemens Energy begins feasibility and engineering design work focused on long-duration energy storage and compressed air storage components. Clube explained that the MESH system combines hydrogen, compressed air, and natural gas storage to deliver flexible and dispatchable power to the UK grid. Hydrogen and compressed air will be stored in offshore salt caverns, while natural gas will be stored in traditional clastic reservoirs. “The co-location of those storage assets enables a multitude of energy supply type solutions,” Clube said. He added that renewable energy, particularly wind, is already struggling to get to market due to demand and grid constraints. The MESH project addresses this by absorbing excess renewable power and supplying backup capacity when renewables underperform. Citing government estimates, Clube noted that up to £6 billion of renewable value may go unrealised by 2030 without such solutions. Looking ahead, investors can expect updates on technical progress with Siemens, the MoU with hydrogen firm Hazer and its partner KBR, and potentially imminent license news related to the project.
