Analysts see over 100% upside potential for A.H.T. Syngas shares. Experts believe the company is on the verge of a growth spurt. The market potential for synthetic natural gas substitutes from biogenic residues is huge. In addition, the company is in the process of transforming itself from a pure plant manufacturer to an energy producer. While A.H.T. is only worth around EUR 10 million on the stock market, 2G Energy is already worth EUR 600 million. This is also raising shareholders' expectations. The latest order intake failed to provide any impetus, with everyone waiting for news from the US. There is currently a sense of alarm at Plug Power in the US. At an extraordinary general meeting, shareholders are to decide on the future of the hydrogen specialist. The postponement of the event is causing uncertainty.

    A.H.T. Syngas: Analysts see more than 100% upside potential

    A.H.T. Syngas shares are finally being discovered by investors. They rose by a good 60% in January 2026. But that is likely just the beginning of the story. With a share price of just under EUR 4, the provider of decentralized, climate-friendly biomass power plants is valued at only around EUR 10 million. GBC Research sees the fair value at EUR 8.50 and believes the share price could more than double.

    Analysts forecast that A.H.T. will generate EUR 9.24 million in revenue in the current year. By 2027, this figure is expected to rise to EUR 18.79 million, and by 2028 to around EUR 23 million. Net profit after taxes is expected to climb to EUR 1.36 million or EUR 0.51 per share by 2028.

    But where does this optimism come from? A.H.T. specializes in the production of synthetic natural gas substitutes for the generation of electricity and heat. Biogenic residues such as manure or sewage sludge are used. The company is currently undergoing an exciting transformation from a pure plant manufacturer to an operator. By extending the value chain in this way, A.H.T. aims to generate recurring revenues and higher returns.

    In any case, the market potential for natural gas substitute solutions is enormous. According to experts at MarketResearchFuture.com, the syngas market in Europe alone is expected to grow to around USD 33.4 billion by 2035, almost doubling in size. A.H.T. is currently supporting projects in Poland, Austria, and Germany. In the future, the company also plans to produce hydrogen from biomass residues. Together with partners, A.H.T. recently obtained a patent for the production of hydrogen through the thermal gasification of solid biomass in a fixed-bed reactor. The next milestone will be the realization of the first hydrogen production facility in northern Germany.

    Note: Those interested in learning more about A.H.T. and this exciting new technology should register for the International Investment Forum ii-forum.com on February 25, 2026. CEO Gero Ferges will be presenting live.

    2G Energy: Investors await US orders

    What is possible for a newcomer like A.H.T. Syngas has been impressively demonstrated by 2G Energy in recent years – both in terms of company growth and share performance. 2G Energy is now one of the established energy stocks in Germany. However, since its all-time high in August 2025, the share price has weakened somewhat, briefly trading at just EUR 25 in November 2025. The price has since recovered to around EUR 35.50, bringing the company's market capitalization back to over EUR 600 million.

    The order development in the fourth quarter of 2025, published on Thursday, did not trigger a surge in the share price, but the company should be able to continue its growth course.

    The manufacturer of sustainable power plants, combined heat and power (CHP) plants, and heat pumps reported strong order intake, particularly in Germany and Europe.

    In Germany, the order book filled by EUR 22.4 million. This was 145% more than in the same quarter of the previous year. Among other things, this was due to improved conditions for investments in biogas. New incentives would increase planning security for operators and investors and make biogas projects much more attractive economically. In the European market outside Ukraine, order intake rose by 160% to EUR 11.7 million. 2G Energy highlighted the sewage treatment plant segment with an order volume of EUR 2.2 million. There are also larger projects for the Ukrainian market. However, due to delays, some of these could not be included in the books as of December 31. In North America, order intake remained only slightly below the previous year's level at EUR 15.5 million despite the elimination of government subsidies. 2G Energy expects very dynamic development in North America in the current year. The company is particularly keen to secure projects in the field of energy supply for AI data centers. This is also expected by shareholders.

    The revenue forecast of EUR 440 million to EUR 490 million for 2026 was confirmed. The EBIT margin is expected to be between 9% and 11%. In addition to the positive effects already emerging from the biomass package, the increasingly concrete framework conditions for German gas reserve power plants, and the planned increases in the heat pump sector, initial large orders from the new data center business segment will also support this forecast. Management also expects positive development in the following year, 2027.

    Alarm at Plug Power

    Plug Power is under pressure. The important extraordinary general meeting was supposed to take place last Friday. There, shareholders were to approve a massive capital increase. Management had emphasized in advance that this was important to ensure the further development, not to mention the survival, of Plug Power. But the hydrogen specialist had to postpone at short notice.

    The extraordinary general meeting is now scheduled to take place on February 5, 2026. The reason: too few shareholders voted on the capital measures (proposals 1 and 2) in advance. It was emphasized that approximately 92.63% and 89.09% of the votes cast supported proposals 1 and 2, respectively. However, only approximately 36.93% and 46.86% of the company's outstanding shares voted. Plug Power needs the approval of at least 50% of the outstanding shares for each proposal.

    Plug CEO Andy Marsh commented: "We will continue our campaign to gather votes for proposals 1 and 2. We pursued this amendment to the bylaws in direct response to feedback from shareholders who expressed concerns about increasing the company's authorized common stock through a reverse stock split. Although the company currently has the option to conduct a reverse stock split, we believe that Proposal 2 is a more balanced and shareholder-friendly approach, and we encourage shareholders to carefully consider this when casting their votes."

    Today, Monday, at 10 am local time on the US East Coast, Plug Power will host a webcast, which will also be broadcast on its website. A question-and-answer session will allow all shareholders to ask questions about the proposals. event.webcasts.com/starthere.jsp


    The price potential of over 100% for A.H.T. shares appears to be entirely realistic. The company has significant growth opportunities. If these are exploited, the share should have plenty of upside potential. 2G Energy shows A.H.T. where the journey can take it. Investors' expectations are high for 2G itself. Orders in the AI data center sector would undoubtedly give the share a boost. Plug Power shares remain something for speculators. For long-term investors, a purchase is not an obvious choice.

    Energy from waste, as at Verbio: CHAR Technologies as the savior of the steel industry – competition for market leader SunCoke Energy

    The steel industry is facing a severe test that is often glossed over in ESG reports. While politicians, the media, and futurologists dream of green hydrogen, this vision collides with harsh reality: steel, the basic material of our modern civilization, cannot be produced in existing plants without solid carbon. It serves not only as an energy source, but also as a chemical reducing agent to extract oxygen from iron ore and as a support structure in the furnace. Against this backdrop, it becomes clear that decarbonization cannot be achieved by completely eliminating carbon, but only by replacing its fossil origin. In this billion-dollar market, the Canadian company CHAR Technologies is positioning itself as a key problem solver. While the established market leader SunCoke Energy still relies on fossil coal and is increasingly under margin pressure, CHAR's biochar is an immediately available, climate-neutral solution. At the same time, Verbio's success in Europe shows that scaling up waste materials to energy works – a logic that CHAR is now applying to the steel sector.

    Energy: The bottleneck of the markets – how investors can benefit from American Atomics, Nordex, and Siemens Energy!

    Energy is a key determinant of the competitiveness of economies and companies. Availability, price, and security of supply directly influence costs and, in turn, the prices of products and services. Renewable energy is important, but fluctuating power generation, the risk of dark doldrums, and the currently limited storage capacity pose significant challenges. Against this backdrop, uranium is experiencing a comeback as a reliable energy source. Many tech giants such as Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta are already relying on nuclear power to meet the enormous energy demands of their data centers and AI infrastructures in a reliable and low-carbon way. American Atomics is considered a beneficiary of this trend. The company is pursuing the goal of establishing a fully integrated North American value chain, leveraging favorable political and structural tailwinds.

    These investment specialists pay high dividends: RE Royalties, Mutares, DWS – Growth and dividends are not mutually exclusive!

    Nowadays, anyone who talks too much about dividends can quickly be labeled "old-fashioned." Why settle for a 6 or 10% return when stock prices seem to be skyrocketing every day? But trees do not grow to the sky. Recently, investors were abruptly reminded of this by the sudden crash in gold and silver. While the masses often chase the next big thing, successful investors sometimes pursue very different strategies. Warren Buffett made a fortune with investments that others considered boring. The companies mentioned here pay high dividends - RE Royalties, even 13% p.a. - and continue to grow. Not exciting enough? Perhaps. But often, this is exactly how money is made in the long term.
