A British energy company is planning to step up its activities in Morocco as part of a wider expansion across the Middle East and other regions.
Powerhouse Energy Group PLC, based in Bingley in England, has signed an agreement with a new commercial partner to help it find projects in Morocco and other key markets. The company says the move is designed to support its growth strategy and focus on countries with strong energy and infrastructure plans.
It has appointed Green Gecko Energy Ltd as its exclusive agent in several regions, including countries linked to the Abraham Accords, parts of the Middle East and North Africa, Gulf states and selected Asian markets.
The firm’s technology turns non-recyclable plastics and used tyres into energy. Instead of burning waste in the usual way, it heats it without oxygen to produce a gas rich in hydrogen. That gas can then be used to generate electricity or refined into high-purity hydrogen.
Powerhouse says the system is modular, meaning it can be installed near waste collection sites or industrial areas. In Morocco, this could help reduce landfill use while producing local energy for factories and transport.
The company’s interest comes as Morocco pushes ahead with plans to improve waste management and expand renewable energy, including its ambitions in hydrogen production. Waste to hydrogen could offer a practical option alongside solar-based projects, especially because it can operate continuously, regardless of weather.
Under the agreement, Green Gecko will only be paid if projects move forward. Any payment would come through commissions in cash and share options, worth up to 3 percent of Powerhouse’s current capital. The options would only be activated once certain project milestones are reached.
Powerhouse says the structure is designed to limit upfront costs while ensuring its partner is rewarded only for real progress. Morocco is seen as a potential base for further expansion into Africa.
