POWER: Uniper Eyes Carbon Capture Plant in the UK
Uniper is eyeing to develop a new carbon capture power plant in the UK’s Humber region, after purchasing the rights to develop and operate a new CCGT power plant in North Killingholme, it said.
- The project under the name, the Killingholme Low Carbon Power Project, will explore the development of carbon capture technology with the consented CCGT power station.
- The land is located next to Uniper’s Killingholme power plant.
- The project eyes the installation of the consented 470MW CCGT power station and to install carbon capture technology at the site.
- Both parts of the project could be operational by 2030, with planning applications to be submitted later in 2025.

GILTS: A Little Firmer, Gilt/Bund Spread Eyed After Fresh Cycle High
Gilts rally a little on the back of the previously covered RTRS source report that flagged the potential for CNY devaluation from the PBoC.
- Futures as high as 95.38 before fading back to 95.30.
- A reminder that Tuesday saw the contract break support at 95.49 and 95.17.
- Initial support now located at yesterday’s low (95.13). Bears ultimately need to break key support at the Nov 18 low (93.40) to reignite downside momentum.
- Yields ~1bp lower across the curve.
- 10+-Year benchmarks hit the highest levels of December yesterday.
- 10s and 50s closed above their 50-DMAs.
- Spread to Bunds 219.5bp after closing pretty much bang on the key 220bp level yesterday, a fresh cycle closing high.
- Fresh extension higher in the spread would target the ’22 mini-Budget high at 227.5bp.
- SONIA futures flat to +1.0.
- GBP4bln of 4.25% Jul-34 gilt supply due this morning, but little else on the UK calendar.
- That will leave focus on cross-market cues and the U.S. CPI data.

Silver is holding on to its recent gains. Despite a recovery in price, the bear cycle that started Oct 23 remains in play and gains are considered corrective - for now. Price has recently traded through a trendline drawn from the Aug 8 low. A resumption of the bear leg would open $28.446, a Fibonacci retracement. The 50-day EMA, at $31.209, has been pierced. A continuation higher would expose $33.125, the Nov 1 high.
