London, UK - Quantum Data Energy PLC (LSE: QDE) is pleased to announce, further to its previous RNS announcement dated 1 September 2026, that its Hindlip 7.5 MW flexible generation power project ("Hindlip"), which is fully funded in partnership with Powertree, and has recently successfully completed construction within timeline and budget as previously announced, has entered commercial operations and is now generating and trading electricity in the UK wholesale market. Hindlip is the Company's second operational flexible generation asset, alongside its 100% owned Pyebridge 8.1 MW flexgen asset, with QDE's third flexgen asset, Bordesley, currently under construction with completion and commercial operations expected in Q4 2026 as previously announced.

Following the successful completion of construction within timeline and budget, and finalisation of the operations and maintenance ("O&M") arrangements for the site, Hindlip has now entered commercial operations, in line with the timeline set out in the Company's March 2026 announcement.

Pieter Krügel, CEO of Quantum Data Energy PLC, said: "We are delighted that Hindlip has entered commercial operations, becoming our second operational flexible generation asset, delivered in line with our March timeline and below budget. We look forward to updating the market on Hindlip's operational performance in due course. Hindlip is a further step in implementing our strategy to build a portfolio of 300+ MW of flexible generation assets."
