The world is at a critical crossroads in terms of decarbonization. Developed countries are increasingly relying on regulatory levers to force change. For example, from 2025, EU fleet operators will have to drastically reduce their CO₂ emissions per km, while in the US, stricter limits for heavy-duty commercial vehicles will apply from 2027. However, the road to compliance is rocky: half of European companies are not yet aware of the new reporting requirements, and over 20% of fleets lack emissions data altogether. As a result, the market for climate technology is booming. But what solutions can bridge the gap between regulatory pressure and operational implementation? The focus is on companies that build bridges between ambitious goals and practical applicability. In this context, it is worth taking a look at players like dynaCERT, whose technology comes into play precisely where politics, climate science, and operational reality collide.

    dynaCERT is now ideally positioned

    The Canadian company dynaCERT (TSX: DYA | OTC: DYFSF | FRA: DMJ) is increasingly positioning itself as a key player in the field of emission-reducing technologies. With its patented HydraGEN™ solution, strategic partnerships, and recent certifications, the Company could be taking a decisive step towards profitability and market penetration at just the right time. This scenario is highly interesting for equity investors.

    Dakar Rally: Ultimate test for HydraGEN™ technology

    For the second consecutive year, dynaCERT made a clear statement at the Dakar 2025 Truck Rally. The HydraGEN™ units, which use electrolysis to generate hydrogen and oxygen from distilled water, were again used under extreme conditions. After a vehicle equipped with HydraGEN™ technology successfully entered the race for the first time in 2024, coming in 3rd, dynaCERT supported the French team Normandy Racing Solutions (NRS) in 2025. The team's trucks, including a 950 hp DAF prototype and a MAN racing truck in the "Dakar Classic", were equipped with HG1 units.

    The focus here is not on speed but verifiability: The desert's heat, vibrations, and dust serve as a test field for the technology's suitability for everyday use. This is an ideal stage for dynaCERT to convince potential customers from the transportation, mining, and logistics industries of the robustness of the solution.

    Carbon credits and strategic positioning

    dynaCERT reached a milestone in October 2024 with certification by VERRA, one of the world's leading organizations for carbon credits. This certification enables customers to generate tradable carbon credits (CO2 credits) through the use of HydraGEN™ technology. A smart move: dynaCERT shares the proceeds from the sale of the credits with the users – an additional incentive for fleet operators to invest in the technology.

    This is supported by the appointment of Seth Baruch, CEO of Carbonomics LLC, to the dynaCERT advisory board. Carbonomics LLC is a consultant for the implementation of dynaCERT's Verra carbon credit projects. Baruch brings with him years of experience in the carbon market and is expected to accelerate the implementation of Verra projects. "With decarbonizing the transportation sector being such a challenge, I look forward to working with the dynaCERT team on their carbon credit projects and as a member of the advisory board," said Baruch. The combination of technology and financing model could give dynaCERT a significant competitive advantage.

    Financing and Expansion: Targeting the European Market

    The Company strengthened its balance sheet in February 2025 with a successfully placed capital increase of CAD 5 million at CAD 0.15 per share, as well as a warrant at CAD 0.20. The funds are being used for a global sales offensive, particularly in the target sectors of mining, oil & gas, and transportation. At the same time, the European presence was expanded. The German subsidiary dynaCERT GmbH relocated to Munich Airport to be closer to customers such as manufacturers of commercial vehicles and construction equipment.

    This a strategic step at the right time because in April 2025, the world's largest trade fair for construction machinery, bauma, is scheduled to take place in Munich – an ideal platform to present the HydraGEN™ technology to decision-makers from industry and politics. Kevin Unrath, dynaCERT's COO, emphasizes: "Munich is an important hub for many of our key German and European customers in the engine, commercial vehicle, construction, and industrial solutions sectors."

    Market potential: Why dynaCERT could be on your watchlist

    There are over 13.5 million trucks on the road in the US alone and 6 million in the EU. dynaCERT aims to provide customers with a quick return on investment. With a unit price of approximately CAD 8,850 and savings of 6 to 19% on fuel costs and maintenance, the investment pays for itself in just 7 months, according to the Company, based on a mileage of 204,000 km, which corresponds to the annual average for Class 8 trucks. Added to this are revenues from carbon credits, which dynaCERT quantifies precisely via its HydraLytica telematics software.

    Another lever is the partnership with Cipher Neutron, a specialist in green hydrogen. Joint projects, such as the development of anion exchange membrane electrolyzers for the steel industry, are opening up new markets for dynaCERT beyond the transportation sector.

    Conclusion: More than just a "green tech" play

    dynaCERT impresses with a unique combination of proven hydrogen technology, strategic partnerships, and a scalable business model with carbon credits. VERRA certification makes carbon credits a recurring source of income, participation in the Dakar highlights the reliability of the hardware, and the expansion in Europe lays the foundation for scalable revenues. With a market capitalization of around CAD 64 million, the Company appears undervalued – especially considering that it is aiming for medium-term self-financing. For investors focused on practical climate technologies, dynaCERT could be a meaningful strategic addition to their portfolio.

    No Trump frustration with 123fahrschule and Mutares, but caution is advised with defense stocks such as RENK, Hensoldt, and Steyr!

    • Defense

    The daily news is driving stock market activity. After a rollercoaster ride caused by Trump, popular tech stocks such as the Magnificent 7 are now down a good 20%. In the case of Nvidia, the stock is now USD 50 below its peak. For many, this is an opportunity to finally take a breather and think about the rest of the stock market year. Small caps such as the successful 123fahrschule continue to work on their growth programs, and Mutares is making good progress with its investments. The hot defense stocks RENK and Hensoldt appear somewhat overpriced. Those who want to generate returns now must be very selective and invest in specialties. After gains of just under 10% per annum, global ETF savers will likely take a break from returns in 2025. In the meantime, flexible investors will come out on top. Here are a few ideas.

    • Trucks
    • Electromobility

    The transport industry is at a crossroads: With CO2 limits getting stricter and supply chains needing to be smarter than ever, companies are struggling to find the right balance between efficiency and sustainability. According to the "NEW MOBILITY REPORT 2025," the battle for dominance in tomorrow's logistics is underway – driven by electric trucks, AI-managed fleets, and hydrogen prototypes. But in the race to be the frontrunner, three key players are pulling different levers. BYD focuses on innovative all-electric passenger vehicles, dynaCERT offers disruptive retrofit solutions for diesel engines, and Daimler Truck aims to combine autonomous systems with green drives. Who is driving the revolution – and where will investors benefit the most?

    Billions for defense and hydrogen: RENK, Nel ASA, and dynaCERT – Profiteer or "dead cat"?

    • Hydrogen
    • greenhydrogen
    • Defense
    • renewableenergies

    In the coming years, billions will be invested in defense, hydrogen, and energy efficiency in Germany alone. The grand coalition has committed itself to this in the coalition agreement. The CO2 price is set to play a central role in climate protection. dynaCERT is expected to benefit from this, as the cleantech company's retrofit kits for diesel engines reduce CO₂ emissions. Analysts see multiple potential for the share. How quickly such a multiplication can happen has been recently demonstrated by RENK's share price. Despite hitting record highs, analysts recommend buying. And what is behind the price jump at Nel ASA? New hope, or are the Norwegians just a "dead cat bounce"?
