  • Energy

Germany is still feeling the effects of the sabotage of the Russian gas pipelines years later. Expensive energy costs are driving industry to the brink of ruin. Solutions are needed to bring the European country back to the forefront economically. Energy company RWE is setting a good example by launching large-scale battery storage systems in two cities that can provide energy for critical infrastructure within seconds. This project demonstrates how Germany is future-proofing its energy supply. First Nordic Metals is working to make Europe independent of raw materials and is conducting exploration projects with a focus on gold in Scandinavia. This precious metal offers a solid hedge, especially in times of crisis. Adam Cegielski, recently appointed president, strengthens the team with his 25 years of industry experience. Siemens Energy is banking on growth on the French coast: the Company is investing EUR 200 million to build offshore wind turbine rotor blades. This will not only create 200 new jobs but also send a strong signal for Europe's path toward energy independence.

The energy transition and technological progress are shaping the global economic landscape in the first quarter. The German energy company RWE is investing in an innovative offshore wind farm control center on the German North Sea coast that will control the growing fleet of wind turbines from 2026. Renewable energies consume a lot of copper in their construction, bringing the explorer Nova Pacific Metals into focus. The Canadian company is preparing to start drilling at its strategically important Lara VMS project with a high copper content on Vancouver Island. The timing is ideal, as global demand for copper will increase to 50 million tons by 2035 – driven by energy transition projects like those of RWE, where a modern wind turbine alone requires 30 tons of copper. With secured financing of CAD 2.86 million and experienced expertise in the team, the chances for the drilling and further measures are excellent. The Chinese retail giant Alibaba is duly recognized as a global technology leader by the US Fortune Magazine and is ranked 3rd in the Internet Services and Retail category. What the publishers considered particularly important has to do with an AI highlight...

RWE, F3 Uranium, Nel ASA – New energy policy under Trump! Who benefits?

  • Mining
  • Uranium
  • Energy
  • renewableenergies

While former President Biden worked towards climate policy goals, Donald Trump is taking a different approach. His primary goal is to boost the economy, and the best way to do that is to make energy affordable. He wants to increase drilling for fossil fuels in order to lower energy prices. This puts pressure on renewable energies, especially wind power. Solar energy remains part of the energy mix. Nuclear power is gaining in importance. By 2050, nuclear power capacity is to be tripled, partly through the use of small modular reactors. This should improve the CO2 balance. In the hydrogen sector, the focus could be on blue hydrogen due to increased natural gas production.

F3 Uranium, Plug Power, RWE - Opportunities and challenges from Trump's energy emergency

  • Mining
  • Uranium
  • Hydrogen
  • renewableenergies
  • Energy

The election of Donald J. Trump as the 47th President of the United States is already having an impact on global energy policy and its players. Shortly after taking office, Trump declared a "National Energy Emergency" to secure the country's energy supply and reduce reliance on foreign energy companies. This presents a new opportunity for the Canadian explorer company F3 Uranium to accelerate its uranium exploration in Canada, as relaxed environmental regulations can speed up approval procedures. With 95 nuclear power plants, the US is an ideal consumer of the valuable raw material. Hydrogen expert Plug Power, on the other hand, has already seen its share price fall on the stock market. Just two days before Trump's inauguration, the Company secured a multi-billion-dollar loan guarantee under former President Biden for the expansion of its hydrogen facilities. The German energy company RWE appears largely unfazed by the change of government. Analysts at Deutsche Bank remain optimistic about the stock's growth potential, noting that existing wind farm projects seem unaffected by the energy emergency. We look at what the current developments mean for investors.

Saturn Oil + Gas, Nel ASA, RWE - How three energy giants are redefining the future of global energy supply

  • Mining
  • Oil
  • renewableenergies
  • Energy

Only a few days remain until January 20, 2025. The day the new US president will be sworn in and can push ahead with another energy turnaround. In North America, energy companies like Saturn Oil & Gas are expanding, and their products are driving the economy. With its blueprint strategy, Saturn ensures continuous value creation and is investing around CAD 320 million in further oil drilling projects for 2025. The clear financial strategy also provides more flexibility for the coming year. In Europe, the shift toward renewable energies continues. Nel ASA boasts full order books thanks to demand from Asia, but analysts remain cautious given the lack of hydrogen supply infrastructure in Europe. However, the new EU supply chain law could reshape the market conditions in favour of Nel ASA, as initial threats from Qatar indicate. As a global player, RWE continues to do business where it is most lucrative. The Company has achieved a milestone in the US, and in Italy, RWE is bringing a fresh breeze to the energy sector. Where investors should act now.

Global energy demand is skyrocketing, fuelled by technological progress and the enormous appetite for electricity for electric vehicles and AI-powered data centres, whose consumption could more than double by 2028. At the same time, the energy transition faces unresolved challenges: Weather-dependent wind and solar energy supply electricity in an unreliable manner, bureaucratic hurdles slow down the expansion, and without sufficient storage, alternatives for the base load are lacking. Given these developments, nuclear power is increasingly seen as the only reliable option for both satisfying the growing hunger for energy and ensuring a stable and climate-friendly energy supply in the long term.

RWE, Globex Mining, Plug Power - Energy transition: Euphoria, disillusionment, and investment opportunities

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • renewableenergies
  • Energy
  • Hydrogen

The path to a sustainable energy supply is not linear but is characterized by successes, setbacks and surprising developments. Despite possible supply risks, the German energy giant RWE is posting record earnings of EUR 4 billion (EBITDA) and is a thorn in the side of the Federal Cartel Office due to its market dominance. With its "mineral bank" model, mining specialist Globex Mining proves how traditional commodity businesses can also develop sustainably. The mining sector faces a double challenge: on the one hand, the industry contributes massively to the increased carbon footprint, while on the other hand, it is indispensable for the energy transition, as the demand for metals for batteries and renewable energies is increasing dramatically. With over 252 projects and smart royalty rights, Globex Mining is growing continuously, and its enterprise value is increasing. Hydrogen pioneer Plug Power, on the other hand, is struggling with a significant 20% revenue drop despite ambitious growth targets. "Hope dies last," one thinks when considering the perseverance of Plug Power's management. Where do investment opportunities lie?
