Good news about the collaboration with Molpus Woodland management in the US. This will provide a million tonnes of waste wood fibre that will be turned into pellets and gain access to Carbon Credits. There is substantial government support for the Green transition that BECCs will likely get a share of. Hopefully this will soon propel its share price back to its previous highs.

Stocks likely rising on hope of the Scottish pumped hydro plans being approved. The BEIS has announced support of energy storage to facilitate more intermittent renewables such as wind so very likely both approved and financially supported. Interestingly even with UK power prices surging the wholesale price has still dipped into negative this year due to supply/demand so big money in storage facilities.
