The shooting stars of the energy transition – 325% gains with Siemens Energy, dynaCERT, Nel ASA, and Plug Power
The NASDAQ technology exchange has been the standout performer this year. With gains of over 30%, the past 12 months will go down in history as a remarkable rally. Few doubt that the mood will deteriorate again significantly by the end of the year. The spotlight was on high-tech stocks and stocks that incorporate the megatrend of "artificial intelligence" into their business model. However, one selected DAX stock was able to outperform the NASDAQ by a factor of 10: Siemens Energy. The losers in this mix were clearly the once-popular hydrogen stocks, Nel ASA and Plug Power, which each lost around 50%. Yet, these could be among the rising stars of the new year. Meanwhile, dynaCERT has already seen significant gains in 2024, but there is still plenty of upside potential. A detailed analysis reveals why!

Rivian, First Hydrogen, Volkswagen AG – Expansion continues
In terms of sales, the automotive industry is the largest manufacturing sector and by far the most significant industrial sector in Germany. However, German carmakers are currently in crisis and unable to escape the negative headlines. They are falling behind, especially when it comes to vehicles with alternative drive systems. In recent years, companies excelling in this area have emerged, offering enormous potential for share price growth due to their promising future prospects.

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

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Volkswagen – Hydrogen could save the European automotive industry
The European automotive industry is at a crossroads: Amid the transition to zero-emission drivetrains and growing competitive pressure from China, manufacturers are looking for technological alternatives beyond battery-based solutions. Hydrogen propulsion could play a key role here. Particularly in applications such as heavy-duty commercial vehicles or long-distance mobility, hydrogen offers advantages that push BEVs (battery electric vehicles) to their limits. In addition, the technology enables a diversification of the European drive system landscape and reduces dependence on scarce raw materials such as lithium or cobalt.

WINNERS of the CLIMATE CONFERENCE: Siemens Energy, Plug Power, dynaCERT!
The CO2 markets and emissions trading are among the few winners of the climate conference in Baku. The dynaCERT share should benefit, as the technology company could face a surge of orders in 2025, potentially leading to a revaluation of the stock. Siemens Energy has recently demonstrated just how quickly and dramatically a revaluation can occur. According to analysts, the rally is far from over. In contrast, Plug Power faces an uncertain future. While experts remain optimistic about the hydrogen sector, the US company is not among their recommendations. So, who are the true beneficiaries of the hydrogen boom?

Make Trump love hydrogen – why not? Nel, Plug Power, First Hydrogen, thyssenkrupp and nucera
- Even though Trump ignores or denies climate change, he has an advisory team focused on the future of the US. After all, the Republican Party wants to continue to govern even after the Donald era. However, the current election result is weighing on the entire green tech sector, so investors should selectively take advantage of the current sell-off. After all, the technologies will not disappear but continue to develop in the background. Hydrogen propulsion systems still play a niche role but could become more important due to technological advances and infrastructure investments. Their future depends heavily on how effectively renewable hydrogen can be produced and made available and how costs develop compared to other zero-emission technologies. First Hydrogen is demonstrating how the logistics and transportation sector could develop under the EU's "Net Zero 2050" target! Sentiment is low, so investors should switch in time to benefit from the impending rebound.

First Hydrogen, BYD, Porsche - Two newcomers challenge the old guard
Germany is establishing itself as a pioneer in hydrogen mobility with an ambitious 9,700 km hydrogen network and 17 specialized hydrogen centers. The Company First Hydrogen is taking advantage of this momentum and is positioning itself in the German market with its field-tested commercial vehicles at exactly the right time. With an impressive range of 630 km per tank fill and successful fleet trials in the UK, First Hydrogen is making strides. At the same time, Hungary is developing into a strategic hub of European e-mobility. With BYD and BMW setting up operations and the battery manufacturer CATL investing EUR 7.3 billion, a major center for electromobility is emerging here. Once the undisputed star in the automotive sky, Porsche is experiencing a decline in revenue of 5.2% to EUR 28.56 billion and is struggling with a falling operating return. The important Chinese market, particularly, is causing concern for the Stuttgart-based company, where sales figures fell by a third in the first half of the year.

Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, Bayer AG: Contrasts in Q3: Established companies under pressure, newcomers with breakthroughs
Established DAX corporations such as Bayer AG and Daimler Truck, a Mercedes-Benz Group company, are facing a headwind in the third quarter of 2024. However, the Canadian cleantech specialist dynaCERT is on the verge of its commercial breakthrough. The Leverkusen-based Bayer Group has to revise its forecast downwards. The agriculture business, in particular, is a cause for concern, while the pharmaceuticals division is scoring points with new drugs. At Daimler Truck, strong business in North America is stabilizing the balance sheet, while business in Europe is under pressure. dynaCERT, on the other hand, has received the valuable Verra certification for its hydrogen technology for diesel optimization after twenty years of development work. Investors finally have a viable hydrogen use case for logistics.
