Calash advises Floreat on its Investment into Standard Gas

Calash is pleased to announce that it provided commercial due diligence to Floreat Group, on its investment into Standard Gas, a leading UK carbon-removal company.

Standard Gas is a UK-headquartered technology company. Its SG100 technology produces affordable, clean, carbon-negative energy, while capturing and removing carbon, and transforming waste management for the Circular Economy. A single SG100 plant can generate up to 40,000 MW hours of carbon-negative power, enough for around 10,000 homes, or offices, commercial properties, transportation, and industries. It will also remove up to 25,000 tonnes of CO2e – equivalent to the annual carbon emissions of 5,000 cars. With electrolysis, a plant processing biogenic waste will generate over 650 tonnes of green hydrogen.

Calash provided a technical red flag review alongside a financial model review. The client required a high level review of key technology risks to the business, including its IP protection, technical & operational risk, feedstock capability, commercial mode and insurance protection. This required a deep understanding of the technology, commercial applications and the considerations for impacts on the company’s financial model. 

The Calash team included Iain Gallow and John Corbett.
