Tanfield Group is the new company name of Comeleon. As I understand it, Comoleon was getting into trouble so TAN (paerent company?) took over. Since this has happened the share price has dropped by 0.25p each day for the last week or so (on average) and are now around the 3p mark with very little activity.

Does anyone know much about this company or previously held stock in Comeleon? There is virtually no info out there other than on the company website.

cheers

Mike

Wouldn't be suprised to see an announcment or two on lead up to results in March. Allways a good sign rather than announcing with results.

Could then get some updated broker forecasts for this / next year.

cynic - I agree ;o)

Sounds like Tanfield's UpRight knees-up is a no-expense spared one. Raffle prize value stated as $73,000

Green Companies with Potential to turn to Gold

Elric Lloyd-Langton
1 January 2007
No matter if you're a technical trader, bear, bull or fundamentalist, we all dream of the multi bagger returns
when we are on the lookout for the next sexy company, sector. Oil & Gas, Leisure and Gaming stocks and
related companies have all played their part and produced multi bagger returns. At www.lemminginvestor.com
our members have been blessed with many outstanding growth companies in little over three years and will
be well aware of our move towards new innovative green energy companies featured last year, not because
they offer instant returns for the impatient investor, but long term returns for the patient investor, where
buy and hold actually works. We have identified several companies because we believe they offer high
growth, management excellence, innovative solutions to today's energy demands, while offering protection
we are all facing as our climate changes.

The investment environment is changing for companies in a diverse energy sector, some of which should
yield high growth for years to come, in areas we believe are rapidly changing - New exciting areas like
Emissions Trading, BioFuels, Solar Power, Fuel Cell and Ethanol fuel. This report will focus on both
greener energy markets, and companies within those markets which are already benefiting, and those we
expect to do so in the future. Those companies already featured will have hyper URL`s to inaugural reports.
Before I go any further, I should add there are many risks associated with new energy companies; not least
little is known historically about these companies. Their technology maybe at an early stage of development,
R&D spend may prove a strain on financial resources or political risks associated with the origin of the
company. All new innovative companies come with high risks ahead of commercialisation and in some cases,
no proven products and or no proven market for their products.

Greener Future a must
Energy, or the means by we generate it has always been a hot topic, never more so than right now and not
just because of high oil prices and worries, political instability in the Middle East. New innovative companies
with real commercially viable ideas across a wide range of energy fields that actually work make for real
exciting times ahead - Pace is picking up and the sector hotting up. The aim of this report, is to identify
potential high growth candidates for the patient investor some you will note some have already sprung the
starting blocks.

Energy sustainability and other issues of environmental importance are a national and international priority,
with the potential global environmental problems facing mankind in the next 10-50 years. Concerns
regarding environmental pollution and climatic change have raised the general publics concerns regarding
the environment to an all-time high.

The issue of stopping the growth (and preferably lowering) of atmospheric CO2 levels and other greenhouse
gases, is one of great importance, and possibly the one key factor in reducing the ever increasing threat of
global warming and its associated threats to the earths weather systems, ecosystems, and the overall
quality of life. Realistically emissions need to be reduced by about 60% to stop growth, however, that target
at present appears to be unattainable. Thus, our aspirations need to be modified as to one of minimising the
rate of change.

Reducing CO2 emissions is a priority globally, as well as here in the UK, where innovative companies are
seizing opportunities within the UK industry to leverage its traditional strengths and take a worldwide lead in
clean energy. There is co-ordinated and comprehensive support and funding including the recent
announcement of 40 million for carbon abatement technologies and 15 million for hydrogen and fuel cell
demonstration projects. This enables expertise in the marine, oil and gas industries for example to be
transferred across to develop renewable energies and greener ways of burning fossil fuels.
Greener Methods
Ethanol
As previously mentioned in our ethanol boom article, the U.S of all places, is waking up to the need to be
greener, and now it looks as though the U.S has finally recognised that energy dependence is America's
economic, environmental and security Achilles' heel, and is about to take a giant step to free itself.
Ethanol is an alcohol fuel made from distilling sugars in crops, primarily corn in the U.S. In some states, a
gasoline blend with 10% ethanol - E10 or E85 - a blend that contains 15% gasoline and 85% ethanol; all of
which widely used to reduce carbon monoxide emissions.

Five-million-plus ethanol-ready cars and trucks are already on the road at $200 extra cost for each, without
Detroit ever feeling the need to tell the public. Auto makers have quietly added the flex-fuel feature to get a
break from fuel-economy standards.

An unlikely alliance of venture capitalists, Wall Street investors, auto makers, environmentalists, farmers and
politicians are putting real money into bio-refineries, car engines that switch effortlessly between gasoline
and biofuels, and R&D to churn out ethanol more cheaply.

About one out of every 40 cars and trucks in the United States can now run on a commercial mix of gasoline
and ethanol, which is mostly made from corn.

Ethanol enthusiasts, such as corn growers and the politicians who represent them, would like that number to
rise. The federal government is helping with subsidies for ethanol. We think the future for ethanol, or the
greener method used to produce it, will be via high cellulose plants, not corn. Although cellulose ethanol is
still an experimental process in which ethanol can be made from almost any type of plant, this still expands
the source material for biofuels. And by using trees, grass or crop wastes, energy input into the process may
be reduced.

Who can benefit from the expected ethanol boom?
R enova Energy, (RVA - 194p) is profitable ethanol production, distribution and marketing company
based in Torringtoon, Wyoming, U.S, but listed in London where the company raised 7million, to help fund
staged expansion of its plant state side, where it hope to double its production to 12 million gallons of
ethanol within a year and up to 100 million gallons by 2010. Clearly a company with huge growth prospects.
Photovoltaics (PV) - or solar cells as they are often called, are semiconductor devices that convert
sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. Groups of PV cells are electrically configured into modules and
arrays, which can be used to charge batteries, operate motors, and to power any number of electrical loads.
With the appropriate power conversion equipment, PV systems can produce alternating current (AC)
compatible with any conventional appliances, and can operate in parallel with, and interconnected to, the
utility grid.

Is geography ever a problem? You can't really expect solar to do well in Scotland
You do want sunshine, but there are some subtleties in the technology. For example, thin film can generate
more power with less sunshine versus conventional technology. But in general, the more sunshine there is
the more electricity youre going to be able to generate. You're always going to produce more in Australia,
Southern Europe, for example, than say, Scotland.

Demand for renewable energy solutions, and solar power technologies, in particular, are growing at an
unprecedented rate, helped considerably by Government subsidies worldwide to reduce reliance on fossil
fuels and to combat the effects of climate change. In consequence a mesmerising first set of figures have
appeared from AIM newcomer ReneSola (SOLA - 424p) which raised 26 million, is a major manufacturer
in China, of solar wafers. In the solar market, two types of solar PV companies are successfully raising
money; those producing thin-film or non-silicon PV cells, and those with access to the cheap labour and
rapidly expanding silicon manufacturing capacity of Asia.

Another PV company worth a closer look, Romag Holdings (ROM - 137.25p) a rare breed among the
renewable companies listed in London, in that it is a long established and profitable. AIM listed Romag has
carved out a niche market the supplied specialist glass products, including blast and bullet-resistant glass,
more recently, building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) glass: solar cells contained within laminates that are
produced for architectural use, where the company has witnessed excellent growth of 300%, which equates
to almost one third of total sales.

New Report by Paul Maycock and Travis Bradford, Projects future for the Global PV Market
Authors predict 50% drop in costs of manufacturing PV components by 2015. The report points to significant
cost reductions primarily due to volume purchasing of raw materials and reduced silicon consumption owing
to thinner slices and higher efficiency, have resulted in new plants with fully burdened module
manufacturing costs at the $2.40-2.75 per peak Watt (DC) level. (Note: these costs do include the recent
rise in the cost of pure polysilicon from an average of $20/kilogram in 2001 to over $50/kilogram in 2006.)
which bodes well for both ReneSola and Romag.

The science bit
There are many types of solar cells. Polycrystaline (more than one crystal), monocrystaline and thin
film. Monocrystaline is presently the most efficient at converting light energy into electricity. Sometimes as
high as 20% but more usually 15%. A monocrystaline cell is made from a thin slice cut from a single crystal
of silicon. A grid of metal is then embedded over the wafer ending in the contacts and other layers added.
Thin film cells are plated onto a plate of glass. They are much cheaper to produce, but only around 5%
efficient and heavy.

A single cell is not of much practical use, producing less than a volt. Several cells have to be connected in a
series of cells to produce a usable voltage. The voltage increases proportionally. 10 cells connected in series
will produce about 7.5 volts. 20 cells 15 volts and so on. A number of cells (a battery) linked and mounted
together is known as a solar panel.

Efficiency - The Sun's energy reaching the surface of our planet is roughly 1 kilowatt per square meter.
Before entering our atmosphere it is about 20% more: 1.2 kilowatts. That's why astronauts always look so
bright. At 15% efficiency 10 panels each measuring 1meter by 1 meter would power 1 1/2 bars on an
electric heater. 20 panels would power an electric kettle. This of course assumes that the sun is shining.

Fuel Cell Technology
A fuel cell is a device that produces electricity silently via an electrochemical reaction without combustion.
Hydrogen ions from hydrogen-rich sources such as methanol, natural gas, or petroleum are combined with
oxygen to generate power. A fuel cell is a cell producing an electrical current direct from a chemical,like in a
battery, differing in that it is designed for continuous replenishment of the reactants consumed. It produces
electricity from an external supply of fuel and oxygen as opposed to the limited internal energy storage
capacity of a battery. Fuel cells have a very low voltage output, so usually several fuel cells are stacked
together to increase the output. Because they operate at almost constant efficiency independent of size,
small fuel cells can operate nearly as efficiently as large fuel cells. Applications of fuel cells can vary from
small, battery-like portable applications to large-scale power generation to transportation. Because of their
efficiency and reduced pollution, fuel cells offer a promising alternative to traditional power sources in
transportation and other applications.

The cells retrieve about 50% of the energy in the fuel in the form of electricity - traditional gas-fired power
stations manage only 30% - but that rises to about 85% when the captured heat from the catalytic process
is included.

Currently, hydrogen is produced from fossil fuel sources such as natural gas, coal, gasoline, and methanol.
For entirely clean and renewable hydrogen extraction, electricity (e.g. from wind turbines) or sunlight
captured on solar panels is used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Until recently, this procedure was
too expensive and the technology was not developed to a point where it can be done on a large scale. Fuel
cells can also be equipped with a reformer which will extract hydrogen directly from the fossil fuel source.
This process does produce some emissions, but it is still much cleaner and more efficient than the energy
obtained from fossil fuel combustion.

Fuel cells are an old technology, problems have plagued their introduction. Present material science have
made them a reality in specialized applications. The Solid Oxide Fuel Cell appears to be the most promising
technology for small electric power plants over 1 kw. The Direct Alcohol Fuel Cell appears to be the most
promising as a battery replacement for portable applications such as cellular phones and laptop computers.
It is difficult to tell at this moment which fuel cell will be most practical for transportation applications such
as motor vehicles. Fuel cells used a electric power plants may be successful before vehicular ones are.

The car market on which so many hopefuls have foundered in despair at the long-winded process of
acceptance is seen as something to avoid for the moment, but there are also large potential opportunities in
combined heat and power. CMR Fuel Cells, (CMF - 165p) technology is applicable to most other types of
fuel cells including, in particular, solid oxide, proton exchange membrane (PEM) and alkali fuel cells.

CMR, a Cambridge based company which demonstrated the world's first 'compact mixed-reactant' DMFC
stack with power density of 200W/l in May 2005. At the London Grove Fuel Cell Symposium, in October, the
next stage of development was shown with higher volumetric power density. In the same month CMR
commenced work on an evaluation mobile phone DMFC stack with a major consumer electronics OEM.
New investors may have to wait till mid 2007 before the mass industrial promise begins to look credible, but
the company hopes to be displaying more advanced working devices and to be in mass production by end
2007. With traditional battery technology almost at a dead end, there is unsatisfied consumer and military
demand for more mobile power. CMR aims to produce higher power from packs of reduced size, weight and
cost, and thus to replace, lithium batteries to drive portable gear - chiefly lap tops, music players, portable
games players, mobile phones, cameras, and power tools.

The volume/output ratio of CMR's fuel cells is already far superior to existing batteries. Prices need to come
down, but volume production is expected to reduce them to an attractive level. Already there is improved
functionality over traditional batteries.

Another company to benefit from global phenomena, A 2003 winner of the prestigious Carbon Trust
Innovation Award, and a winner of the industry's top accolade by winning the Institute of Materials,
Minerals and Mining's Gold Medal for 2005; Ceres Power (CWR - 219.5p) has transformed from its
research and development roots to a business focused on delivering finished products to market and has a
strong balance sheet.

Ceres is recognised as a leader in pioneering low carbon technologies and has considerable commercial
potential, including targeting a range of global market applications including on-site and back-up generators,
residential combined heat and power, and auxiliary power units for transport. Ceres has successfully
designed and tested a 1kW fuel cell stack that generates sufficient power for the average home.
August 2005, Ceres signed a commercial development deal with British Gas to provide 'green' domestic
boilers that will be capable of providing household electricity as well as heat for hot water and central
heating. With comparable cost to the conventional boil, the new boilers, powered by its fuel cells, have the
potential to dramatically reduce household energy bills and cut carbon dioxide emissions. With increasing
energy prices, there is a clear market for the Ceres Fuel cell stack. Ceres says it has enough capacity to
satisfy any early demand from British Gas customers. Assuming all goes well, I would expect BG to promote
and market the Ceres products in much the same way Mobile Telecom Companies do with Mobile Phones on
contracts.

Tanfield (TAN - 55.25p) Based in north-east England, Tanfield is already established as the WORLD
LEADER in zero-emission electric road going delivery vehicles. It is organised into five operating divisions,
Engineering, Hire, Service and Maintenance, Aerial Access, Electric Vehicles, IT Services and Training and
Others. Engineering designs and manufactures aerial access equipment. Hire, Service and Maintenance is
provided for industrial equipment. Aerial Access designs and manufactures aerial access equipment. Electric
Vehicles designs and manufactures electric vehicles. Plus connections in China, USA and east Europe.
It has road going electric delivery vehicles on trial with TNT Express, and Sainsburys. Plus Government
assisted funding for trials in several UK cities. Plus a UK & Ireland contract for the maintenance of several
thousand vehicles in the Dairy Crest delivery fleet.

There is competition in this sector as you would expect, a number of companies are promoting electric
vehicles and showing off prototypes. Tanfield has them in production and on the road - with many years
experience in doing so. And also on-site at airports, factories and depots.

Its market capitalisation recently surpassed 100m, which brings it onto the radar of certain fund managers.
We like businesses that are legislation-driven. Tanfield is being helped by new laws that are penalising
polluters and favouring low-emission vehicles. The 'Working At Height' regulations that came in last year are
driving demand for access platforms.

Ceramic Fuel Cells(CFU - 47.5p) An Australian company, is commercially developing highly efficient
solid-oxide fuel cells (also known as ceramic fuel cells). These cells, unlike their predecessors, have a solid
electrolyte separating the two electrodes. What appears to set it aside from other innovations in this arena,
is that it's combined with a small heat and power unit to generate low cost 1kW of electricity and heat for
hot water, using natural gas as the fuel. The cells can be fuelled by a variety of gases, including hydrogen,
natural gas or coal gas suitable for large scale manufacturing to meet commercial targets for cost and
performance. Shares in CFU moved northwards in December on the back of news the company had entered
into an agreement with Gaz de France and De Dietrich Thermique to develop a micro combined heat and
power (CHP) unit for the French residential market. It is anticipated demand for more efficient power and
heating systems continues to grow within the French market. De Dietrich Thermique, provides gas heating
systems in the French market, then integrate the fuel cell into its condensing boiler platforms, while Gaz de
France will conduct tests on the prototype.

CFU has orders for ten plants to be delivered to Germany's EWE, and expects trial orders from other EU
Electricity generators in 2007.

Oil Refining
HydroDec Group (HYR - 26.5p) is developing and commercialising a high margin, oil re-refining process,
which regenerates oil and removes dangerous contaminants such as PCBs. It can also treat a number of
chlorinated organic wastes, known as Persistent Organic Pollutants POPs. The process offers a commercially
competitive option for tackling some of the big challenges faced by the power, mining and chemical
industries in dealing with contamination.

HydroDec seems to be without competition and of great significance for the future of the planet. Those
searching for a profitable stake in 'green' companies likely to succeed, will find this one contains critical
USPs, and offers intriguing prospects two years out from now.

Developed over 12 years by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation of Australia,
HydroDec has entered into an exclusive 15 year license for the global marketing and distribution of the
CSIRO's patented technology.

HydroDec uses an advanced form of catalytic hydrogenation, based upon standard oil and petrochemical
industry packed bed hydrogenation processes. Patented IP prevents deactivation of the catalyst by hydrogen
chloride and similarly reactive by-products.

This means that toxic, chlorinated organic waste, such as Dioxins, Furans, DDT, DDD, DDE, PCB,
Chlorobenzene, Chlorophenol and HCB/HCBD can be destroyed in an environmentally safe, zero-emission,
closed-loop process that has no direct air emissions. The technology has also been used to treat a variety of
these chlorinated organic wastes, commonly referred to as 'Persistent Organics Pollutant' (POP's).

Dioxins
Dioxins enter the environment mainly through incineration processes and thermal processes in metals
extraction and processing, as well as through the production and use of organochlorinated compounds.
The Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POP's) is a global initiative to protect human
health and the environment from 'POP's' - chemicals that are highly toxic, persistent, bioaccumulate and
move long distances in the environment. The first Conference of the Parties to the Stockholm Convention on
POP's was held in May 2005. Currently there are 100 countries committed as Parties to the Stockholm
Convention and another 51 signatories.

The Convention seeks the elimination or restriction of production and use of all intentionally produced POP's
(i.e. industrial chemicals and pesticides). The Stockholm Convention also seeks the continuing minimization
and, where feasible, ultimate elimination of releases of unintentionally produced POP's such as dioxins and
furans from processes such as incineration.

Biofuels
A selling point of using plant material such as corn, wheat and soybeans to fuel our vehicle, is that it's a
renewable resource. You can always grow more, thus, reduce reliance on oil. But there's still debate over
whether biofuels can actually do this, and in an environmentally sound way. One company we have had our
eye on for some time, but never been convinced it would overcome production problems and funding issues,
has been Biofuels corporation (BFC - 30.50p) The biodiesel plant operator narrowed its pretax loss to
8.9m in the six months to Sept 30, from 30.6m a year earlier. However, market conditions have hit the
company, resulting in a decline in margins, production problems and the need for further funding to see it
through 2007. However, management believe these issues are short term and point to lower mineral oil
prices and increased input costs, Biofuels said current margins have become 'unsustainable', though an
improvement is expected in 2007. Certainly one for the watch list.

Greenhouse gases
Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are gaseous components of the atmosphere that contribute to the greenhouse
effect. Some greenhouse gases occur naturally in the atmosphere, while others result from human and
animal activities. Naturally occurring greenhouse gases include water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane,
nitrous oxide, and ozone. Certain human and animal activities, however, add to the levels of most of these
naturally occurring gases.

AgCert International, (AGC- 155.75p) which trades in agriculturally derived greenhouse gas emission
reductions has developed a novel approach to utilising the smelly stuff associated with farm live stock, thus
well placed to benefit from Kyoto Protocol, which came into force February 2005. Carbon is becoming one of
the hottest commodities on the international marketplace, with investors predicting that it could soon
become one of the largest markets in the world. The Protocol's 'flexible' market based mechanisms allow
corporate polluters to evade their emissions reduction obligations at home by buying up and trading carbon
emission quotas and credits from other countries, projects or industries. AgCert has a patented Biogester,
using a US Department of Agriculture licensed technology, which turns farm slurry methane in to energy and
carbon dioxide which can be traded. Traditionally, farms store their animal dung in open lagoons where they
will be left to naturally decompose, allowing the methane to seep in to the atmosphere. Methane gas is 21
times more damaging than carbon dioxide.

More recently, AgCert profitability and risk profile have improved significantly following contract renegotiations,
and that it is on track to be cash flow positive by the end of 2007. AgCert met the target set
out last September for emission reduction submissions to the UN Executive Board and that it is expecting to
reach agreement on an additional 70m euros of funding in early 2007. The re-negotiations of the company's
principal fixed contracts will release significant capacity for sale at full market prices, adding an estimated 53
95m euros to its gross revenues.

There are some 38 companies within green arena which could benefit in a changing investment World,
which, in all probability, will require 2nd report. For example, wind power generator OPT looks to be a
worthwhile candidate for inclusion, as does, emissions play, ALK, previously covered, albeit to early and
carbon credit companies like ECO already capped at 208m and rising continuously at 76%/pa. GTL looks
like doing well in the shorter term than the others. Following our coverage of SOLA, PFLM is also
interesting as it covers thin film technology which is accelerating at 117%/pa during the shortage of
polysilicon. However, readers should note the shortage of polysilicon is expected to be addresses during
2007/08.

I guess I should be flattered at recognizing complete paragraphs of my own there ;o)

Some good useful explanations though, on several fronts.

Meanwhile, TAN feels to me like it is poised for yet another little surge. I suppose the company will issue some kind of statement during or after the show in Atlanta. It finishes on Saturday (and Atlanta is 5 hours behind UK, so make that late Saturday). Not that we are ever starved of newsflow with this company. I wouldn't be surprised to see announcements from some of the funds in the next few days - in some cases showing they have cashed in their earliest stakes, but that's OK. There seem to be some chunky trades going through again this week.

Favourable comment in this week's Shmag I gather. What does it say?

Funny Guy:-)

News flow is the key for the Investors and the company

Tanfield. 7th Feb Daniel Stewart has given a buy rating with a target price of 109p

8-14 Feb Shares page 9. Orders recharge Tanfields batteries.. The next few weeks will be most interesting..

A third production line is currently being installed in UpRights new Vigo facility in England and the company says it is close to closing on a deal to build a new Greenfield production facility in California. In the meantime it expects to achieve production of 60 units a week in its Fresno facility by late spring.
