EnergyPathways PLC CEO Ben Clube talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest developments in the company's MESH project and the recent partnership with infrastructure specialist Costain. Clube explained that Costain brings extensive experience, particularly in the UK North West, and provides essential expertise in engineering solutions and salt cavern construction—an important element of the MESH storage component. Clube confirmed that Costain joins other key stakeholders, including Siemens Energy, Hazer, and KBR in progressing the project through its engineering study phase. “We’re straight into working through those with those partners,” he said, noting that the goal is to deliver an optimised development design to benefit the UK economy and shareholders. He outlined upcoming project milestones, including moving into the development phase and obtaining necessary government approvals. A gas storage licence application is already in process, with other regulatory permits expected to follow. On regulatory engagement, Clube said, “We’re about to launch a further engagement with various aspects of government,” highlighting plans to consult ministers, departments such as DESNZ, regulators including the Crown Estate and NSTA, and local MPs and councils. This comprehensive engagement is part of EnergyPathways’ broad-based strategy to position MESH as a vital part of the UK’s energy transition.
