Nikola, Klimat X and BYD make significant steps forward
The current stock market year has so far been one to forget for companies in the Greentech industry. Whether hydrogen, wind or solar energy, the still mostly loss-making hopefuls have not yet been able to deliver on their lofty goals for a climate-neutral world. However, the potential in the coming decades is enormous. According to experts, the trade in CO2 certificates alone is expected to increase eightfold by 2030.

Klimat X, Siemens Energy, Rheinmetall: Environmental protection and defense - Who is ahead with the best returns?
McKinsey estimates that demand for carbon credits could increase fifteenfold by 2030 and even a hundredfold by 2050. The market could be worth more than USD 50 billion by 2030. The Company Klimat X trades in these credits and generates them through active environmental protection. It provides sustainable investment opportunities, and interested investors can learn more about how it works in this article. Meanwhile, current world events are dominated by the terrorist attack in Israel, benefiting defense companies like Rheinmetall. On the other hand, the wind energy sector is down. Siemens Energy has devised a drastic plan to regain profitability.

CO2 Certificates - The Solution for Climate Change? Nel ASA, Klimat X, Ballard Power and Plug Power in the analysis check!
The transition to a sustainable climate cannot be solely funded by the public. Success depends on private initiatives. It is, therefore, all the more important that inventiveness and entrepreneurial energy in this critical economic sector are also rewarded and promoted. In May 2022, the European Union launched REPowerEU, a billion-dollar program on how to shape the energy future. At the time, hydrogen accounted for less than 2% of energy consumption in Europe and was mainly used to manufacture chemical products such as plastics and fertilizers. The European Commission has proposed producing about 10 million tons of renewable hydrogen by 2030 and importing another 10 million tons to reduce climate-damaging gases. Climate innovations are evaluated differently on the stock market, and we will focus on some key players.

Shell, Hard Value Fund, Rheinmetall - All for performance!
Sustainability is a significant and important topic. Due to recent developments, it is often associated with the environmental and social sustainability of financial products. However, investing purely based on these two criteria can cost investors dearly. For example, global leaders in the hydrogen sector, such as Plug Power, lost around 90% of their value within two years, while wind turbine manufacturer Nordex experienced a peak decline of around 70%. In contrast, fossil fuel producers such as Shell, BP and Exxon enjoyed a boom and were able to multiply their share prices over the same period. Whether investments should, therefore, be made exclusively in ESG-compliant stocks is more than questionable from a return point of view because many companies do not yet offer one thing: financial sustainability.

ThyssenKrupp Nucera, Klimat X, Ballard Power - Gigantic potential
There is no question that hydrogen is a key element in climate neutrality. Politicians are, therefore, backing the invisible, odorless gas with billions in subsidies. However, after a stock market boom at the beginning of the decade, the prices of hydrogen shares have been falling sharply for months. There is no question that the long-term potential is enormous. The forecasts for trading in CO2 certificates are similarly high. Experts expect the market to multiply by a factor of 10 by 2030.

Warning against the Green Illusion! SMA Solar, Saturn Oil + Gas, JinkoSolar
About one-fifth of Germany's gross final energy consumption comes from renewable energies - and the trend is rising. Renewables are also on the rise in the US and China. From an investor's point of view, this naturally suggests itself as an investment. Renewable energy is climate-neutral, cost-effective, and politically supported. Despite these apparent advantages, some pitfalls still surround this presumed self-propelling sector. We shed light on why sustainably-minded investors do not need to shy away from fossil energy sources and why certain challenges exist within the Green Illusion.
