  • Logistics
  • Trucks
  • Electromobility

With the aim of promoting greener technologies and meeting legal requirements, logistics companies are faced with the choice between electric and hydrogen drives for the future. Many countries have introduced strict emissions regulations to reduce CO2 emissions and minimize the use of fossil fuels. While electric drives impress with their high energy efficiency and low operating costs, hydrogen drives score points with their fast refueling and long range. We have picked out three companies, some of which are pursuing different approaches, and take a look at their current situation.

Turnaround within reach; invest in hydrogen 3.0 now? Nel ASA, Plug Power, dynaCERT and Daimler Truck

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • renewableenergies
  • Energy

No sector has been hit as hard in recent months as the hydrogen sector. Even after 70 to 90% losses in individual well-known public stocks, the starting signal for a recovery rally does not yet seem to be in sight. However, there are now an increasing number of listed business models that use hydrogen as a clean, climate-friendly fuel. Spurred on by public subsidies, attempts are now being made to combine alternative energy generation and clean combustion processes. Whether in steel production, industrial manufacturing, or transportation, the application areas are diverse. Are interested investors now facing a technical rebound in the hydrogen sector?

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Hydrogen: the game changer in transportation

  • Hydrogen
  • Electromobility
  • fuelcell
  • Batteries

The rapid development of electromobility has undoubtedly brought many advantages. However, there are some questions regarding its suitability for use in commercial transportation. The issues concerning the weight of the batteries, the long recharging time, and the limited range cannot be ignored. In view of these facts, it is questionable whether electric vehicles can completely replace diesel fuel in commercial transportation. There is a need for further technological advances, such as hydrogen propulsion. Although hydrogen has not yet received the same level of attention as electric vehicles, its potential suggests that it can solve the current problems.

Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Hydrogen: The future king of energy sources?

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • Electromobility
  • Energy

Against the backdrop of climate change and dwindling fossil fuel resources, the world is at a turning point that necessitates a redesign of energy supply. Hydrogen is emerging as the centerpiece of a future low-carbon economy, especially in the transportation sector. This sector, which is currently heavily dependent on fossil fuels, accounts for a significant proportion of global greenhouse gas emissions. In a world seeking sustainable, long-term energy solutions, hydrogen could provide the answer to some of the most pressing challenges of our time. Today, we look at three companies working to reduce emissions using hydrogen.

DAX on record course, hydrogen sell-off! Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Nel ASA and Daimler Truck on the test bench

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • renewableenergies

The DAX is soaring because most investors expect interest rates to fall. Based on the assumption of slower growth, investors are again focusing on cyclically sensitive stocks at the turn of the year. According to the expectation curves for ECB and FED interest rates, the first downward adjustments are already expected in Q2. The key factors here are the slight fall in inflation and the central banks' desire to cushion the potential downturn. Despite all the euphoria, the desire to buy is currently bypassing the hydrogen sector. Representatives of the sector are the stock market losers of 2023. Is there still a possibility of a quick rebound in 2024? We do the math.

Plug Power causes hydrogen tremor - Will dynaCERT and Daimler Truck benefit?

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • Technology

For a long time, hydrogen was considered a real alternative to fossil fuels, especially in freight transport, as refueling times were significantly shorter than electric trucks, and the range was often greater. However, this requires suitable infrastructure and a sufficient supply of green hydrogen. Plug Power aims to provide this infrastructure. However, the Company may run out of money before achieving this goal. This creates opportunities for providers of alternative solutions, such as dynaCERT's HydraGEN™ technology, which enables fuel savings and reduces emissions. Daimler Truck could also benefit from the current situation with its electric trucks. We take a closer look at all three companies.

Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Daimler Truck - Into the future with hydrogen

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • Technology

Hydrogen is a promising energy carrier for the future that can be produced from renewable sources such as green electricity. Hydrogen can be used in various sectors such as industry, heating, or transportation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy security. Transport, in particular, emits a lot of emissions, making it a crucial focal point for action. The German federal government has already adopted a national hydrogen strategy to promote the development and use of hydrogen. There are similar efforts in the US and Europe. We look at three companies harnessing the power of hydrogen.

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Bringing tomorrow's winners into the portfolio today

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • renewableenergies
  • Energy

The energy transition has only just begun. The farewell to fossil fuels is a done deal. Alongside electrification, green hydrogen is expected to play a crucial role in the energy of the future, generated from renewable sources such as wind and solar power. Here, the infrastructure of tomorrow needs to be planned and implemented today. On July 12, the German transmission system operators presented their plan for a hydrogen network for Germany that is to cover a length of 11,200 km. In addition to connecting industrial sites, the plan also calls for the creation of a charging infrastructure for vehicles, as the transportation industry is primarily responsible for CO2 emissions. Investors who position themselves correctly early can profit from the upcoming hydrogen boom.
