(Sharecast News) - Plastic-to-hydrogen technology company Powerhouse Energy Group announced the appointment of Paul Drennan-Durose as its new chief executive officer on Monday.
The AIM-traded firm said Drennan-Durose had "many years" of board-level experience in technology, distribution, engineering services, and manufacturing companies.
His experience included work in the cleantech energy, oil and gas, waste-to-energy, process manufacturing, marine, and the automotive industries.
Powerhouse's board said Drennan-Durose would bring "significant and diverse" commercial, strategic, tactical and transformation experience to the company.
"I am excited to be joining Powerhouse as we aim to become a global leader in technology solutions that will help the world transition to clean energy, as well as help to remove plastic from environments worldwide," said Paul Drennan-Durose.
"It is set to be an exciting and busy year for Powerhouse which I look forward to leading, especially the build of the first facility at Protos."
Paul Drennan-Durose would join Powerhouse on 14 February, having spent more than three years as the investor-appointed CEO at Heliex Power - a private equity-backed cleantech energy business.
While there, he oversaw the start-up's transformation, including the roll-out of its technical and commercial market recovery.
"Paul is a valuable addition to the Powerhouse board and will bring his expertise in driving strategy, investment and delivery," said chairman James Greenstreet.
"Growing Powerhouse internationally with the roll-out of our clean energy technology is a key priority for Paul and will help ensure that Powerhouse will be part of the solution to tackling the world's waste problem."
