We have recently expanded our client portfolio with the announcement that Clean Global Energy (CGE) has appointed Res Publica to provide media and stakeholder relations support as CGE expands its operations throughout Australia and internationally.

CGE is an ASX listed company with innovative and proven Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) technology. UCG converts coal into a product commonly known as Syngas without the need for traditional mining. It allows the coal to be processed underground, eliminating expensive mining operations and minimising ground disturbance. UCG provides numerous opportunities to reduce pollution and has significant advantages over other methods of extracting energy from coal.

In November, 2009 CGE announced the formation of a joint venture with Inner Mongolia Gu Xin Mining Co. Ltd in a proposed US$400m project and has recently announced plans for a second joint venture in Victoria, Australia.

Res Publica’s Managing Director, Mr. Gabriel McDowell, said “CGE is leading the way in developing proven, economically viable, alternative energy solutions and we are delighted to help profile their potential and successes”.
