When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Hi remove the & " " from the first line. This is preventing excel from seeing it as a date.

Ok switch the lines so the formatting of the cell is done first before the date is added. Or you could just say:

Code:
Cells(x, "E").Value = Format(Date, "d/mmm/yyyy")
