  • Electromobility

Germany's automotive industry is in a state of upheaval. With an annual turnover of EUR 411 billion, solutions are urgently needed to drive electrification forward. E.ON, as one of the largest utilities, is investing billions in European infrastructure for this purpose. The Company is also increasing its dividend. Heidelberg-based Altech Advanced Materials is launching stationary battery storage systems on the market at the beginning of April. It has also published the results of the current feasibility study for its second pillar: a special coating for silicon battery anodes that ensures greater power and longevity. These are exactly the sticking points that customers have been complaining about so far. Tesla also relies on silicon batteries in its models. This week, Elon Musk visited the German plant in Grünheide, and has some good news in store...

Sustainable investments in focus: Occidental Petroleum, Carbon Done Right, Plug Power - Which stock offers the greatest advantage for a net zero economy?

  • Sustainability
  • Technology
  • AI
  • Oil
  • greenhydrogen

True sustainability is a delicate balancing act for investors seeking high returns. Companies worldwide still need fossil fuels to keep their businesses running and growing. The US oil and gas producer Occidental Petroleum is no exception. The Company, in which Warren Buffett also invests, is doing a lot to reduce its carbon footprint. On the other hand, Carbon Done Right is sustainable through and through. Its business model involves the reforestation and greening of forests and rainforests to trade real CO2 certificates for companies such as Amazon and Microsoft. Thanks to innovative AI, Carbon Done Right is finally bringing the desired transparency to the carbon market by monitoring tree growth via satellite. Meanwhile, Plug Power relies on in-house hardware and expects a restructuring of tech companies to favour its CO2-friendly solutions. Who truly has the edge when it comes to sustainable measures and returns?

Sell Varta shares? Nel and Altech Advanced Materials with new opportunities

  • Technology
  • Batteries
  • renewableenergies

The bad news for Varta seems to be unending. First, a cyber attack paralyzed the Company. Now, analysts are lowering their thumbs and recommending selling the share. Estimates for the years 2024 and 2025 have been lowered. As a result, Altech Advanced is increasingly becoming the German battery hopeful. Even though Altech's share price has declined significantly in recent months, the Company is on track operationally. The current year will be exciting. Things also remain exciting for hydrogen shares. While Nel and Plug Power & Co. still need to prove the future viability of their business models, they are receiving billions in support.

Is there a 70% upside potential in the Nordex share? This is what analysts are suggesting based on the convincing preliminary figures. But is this development sustainable? Shareholders are hoping for convincing quarterly figures from Nel, even though no major orders have been reported for some time. The share is in a clear downward trend, and analysts have recently drastically reduced the price target for the hydrogen pure-play. While the shares of Nel, Plug Power & Co. are stumbling, dynaCERT is showing relative strength. In an industry environment that is anything but positive, the shares of the Canadian hydrogen company are forming a base.

Energy supply is one of the top issues for investors. A reliable energy supply promotes stable business conditions and supports economic growth. While the opposite is true in Germany, companies like Mercedes-Benz are focusing on lucrative projects abroad. A joint venture with China to expand charging stations is on the Stuttgart-based company's agenda. The German company Altech Advanced Materials is committed to a secure and affordable energy supply. Together with Fraunhofer IKTS, they are developing a stationary ceramic solid-state battery based on salt, especially for critical infrastructure facilities such as hospitals. This enables a smooth, vital power supply for intensive care units, even in emergencies. While Mercedes-Benz is currently eyeing China, the retail giant Alibaba is publishing its quarterly figures this week, serving as an indicator of the country's economic development. The details are summarized below.
