RNS Number : 0784N Quadrise PLC 17 June 2025
17 June 2025
Quadrise plc
("Quadrise", "QED" or the "Company")
Joint Development Agreement with Alder Energy LLC
Quadrise (AIM:QED), the technology company focused on the decarbonisation of
shipping and heavy industry through deployment of low emission fuels and
biofuels, announces the Company has signed a Joint Development Agreement
("JDA") with renewable fuel technology experts Alder Energy LLC.
Alder Energy LLC, known as Alder Renewables ("Alder") is a USA-based biomass
technology provider with industry leading partners and investors. Alder's
proprietary pyrolysis oil upgrading technology is designed to produce stable
Alder Renewable Crude and associated products such as Alder Pyrolysis Sugars
("APS").
Under the JDA, the Quadrise and Alder teams intend to collaborate in respect
of the use of Alder's APS product as a potential cost-effective renewable
feedstock for bioMSAR™ and bioMSAR Zero™, with success of initial lab
testing of Alder's APS product at the Quadrise Research Facility expected to
lead to small-scale diesel engine tests at Aquafuel later this year to confirm
initial viability ("Initial Testing"). Subject to the success of the Initial
Testing and subject to the contractual agreement of both parties and engine
availability, third-party testing in marine diesel engines would then be
completed within 12 months of completion of the Initial Testing.
Commenting on this agreement Jason Miles, CTO of QED, said:
"We are delighted to enter into this JDA with Alder Renewables. Fuels derived
from biomass present potentially the most cost-effective net-zero biofuel
solutions, with pyrolysis technology also being recognised by multiple
organisations including the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon
Shipping, as one of the most feasible production methods for marine biofuels.
This collaboration aims to broaden our range of feedstocks for bioMSAR™ and
bioMSAR™ Zero, to provide abundant lower cost and lower emission
alternatives to conventional biofuels."
"This agreement also builds on the entry of JDAs with other parties with a
view to enabling the Company to increase its presence and further develop the
business in the highly significant North American market. We look forward to
providing further updates on developments pursuant to this agreement in due
course."
Commenting on this agreement Derek Vardon, Chief Technology Officer of Alder,
said:
"Alder is excited to work with Quadrise to seek to develop sustainable marine
fuels using the Alder Renewables Process technology platform. Our pyrolysis
sugar product APS will help the global shipping industry meet clean energy
goals and decarbonise. This JDA is a key step in scaling sustainable
technology solutions, integrating our technologies to support low-carbon
marine fuel and diesel engine adoption."
