Alkane Signs Tolling Contract with GDF SUEZ
Alkane Energy plc (AIM: ALK), the profitable alternative energy company which
owns and operates environmentally friendly power generation plants using coal
mine methane (CMM) as fuel, is pleased to announce a 12 month tolling contract
with energy supply company GDF SUEZ Energy UK.
Under the tolling contract Alkane will assign 7MW of excess capacity to GDF
SUEZ, provided by its sites at Markham and Shirebrook. The agreement will
generate revenues for Alkane of approximately GBP300,000.
Tolling is a method of maximising the economic value of these two sites by
utilising the Group's excess grid and engine capacity. Under the tolling
contract, Alkane will effectively rent the capacity to GDF SUEZ in return for a
standard fee. Using natural gas as the fuel, GDF SUEZ will determine the engine
running regime and be responsible for the running costs of the production.
In addition Alkane has entered into a 12 month sales agreement with GDF SUEZ for
output of circa 2MW from our CMM reserves at Shirebrook.
Commenting on the contract, Neil O'Brien, Chief Executive of Alkane Energy said:
"We are very pleased to be working with GDF SUEZ and look forward to developing
a long term relationship. We remain committed to further enhancing the potential
of our assets and will continue to evaluate other opportunities to further
improve the quality of our earnings."
