EnergyPathways plc

("EnergyPathways" or the "Company")

Licence Operatorship Approval and Contractor Appointment

EnergyPathways plc (AIM: EPP), an energy transition company developing low carbon integrated energy solutions in the UK, is pleased to announce Licence Operatorship approval for Block 110/4a that includes the Company's Marram Energy Storage Hub project ("MESH") and a subsea engineering service agreement with PDi Ltd ("PDi").

The Company announces that the North Sea Transition Authority (NSTA) has granted approval to EnergyPathways for the Licence Operatorship of Block 110/4a. This is an important milestone for the development of MESH and a prerequisite for the upcoming submission of the Field Development Plan ("FDP") and Environmental Statement ("ES").

Additionally, the Company has selected PDi to provide engineering study support to Marram field development regarding the tie-in connection of MESH as part of pre-Front End Engineering and Design ("FEED").  The appointment of PDi follows the recently announced appointment of Wood plc as project lead engineering partner for MESH, as EnergyPathways and these appointed contractors progress the MESH project through the engineering, construction, commissioning and management phases.

Ben Clube, CEO of EnergyPathways plc said:

" We are delighted to announce the NSTA's approval for the Licence Operatorship for  Marram Block 110/4a which is an endorsement by Government authorities of our operating capabilities and is a necessary milestone to keep us on track towards our plans to achieve FID on MESH later this year.

"We are also pleased to welcome PDi into the MESH consortium, providing support to EnergyPathways as we progress MESH through the pre-FEED process.  PDi is a highly experienced UK company that is a leader in the provision of project management with specific subsea capabilities relevant to MESH.

"This winter's conditions highlight the importance of the need to increase the UK's natural gas and energy storage capacity to improve its energy security and to alleviate the impact of volatile global energy prices on UK household budgets."
