Opportunities thanks to industrial transformation: The closed value chain of CHAR Technologies, PyroGenesis, and BASF
When it comes to the climate-neutral transformation of industry, the current phase marks the transition from strategic planning to operational implementation for many companies. According to recent publications by McKinsey and the International Energy Agency (IEA), about half of the required reduction in CO2 emissions by 2050 depends on the provision of alternative heat sources for the production of basic industrial materials such as steel, cement, and chemicals. The regulatory framework in Europe and North America is defined by the Emissions Trading System (ETS) and stricter standards for the circular economy, which increases the financial pressure on CO2-intensive processes. In this environment, the thermal decomposition of organic materials in the absence of oxygen, known as pyrolysis, is becoming increasingly popular as a means of recovering energy from waste streams and utilizing them as carbon sinks. CHAR Technologies, PyroGenesis, and BASF play an important role in this context, ranging from decentralized waste recovery to specialized plant engineering and industrial applications.

Hydrogen transition: How dynaCERT, Plug Power, and Ballard Power Systems are decarbonizing the transportation sector
The market for hydrogen-powered logistics is set to reach a volume of USD 32.47 billion in 2026 and is expected to grow to USD 204.9 billion by the end of the decade. The International Energy Agency (IEA) reports that global demand for hydrogen was nearly 100 million tons last year, but less than 1% of that came from low-emission sources. In the US, tariffs on electrolysers and fuel cells, ranging from 10% to 30%, are forcing the industry to build local supply chains. In Europe, the REPowerEU plan, together with the EU hydrogen strategy, creates a stable framework for investment in infrastructure. However, an immediate and comprehensive replacement of the global heavy-duty fleet with completely emission-free vehicles would be difficult to achieve and also economically nonsensical. Instead, companies are preparing to retrofit existing fleets or promote the hydrogen transition in other ways.

International Expansion as a Catalyst? RENK, CHAR Technologies, and SFC Energy enter new markets
CHAR Technologies is likely to achieve a breakthrough this year, both operationally and on the stock market. The company is now bringing its HTP technology for the production of biogas and biochar to Europe. Licensing reduces risks and conserves capital. The first industrial plant has already gone into operation in Canada. Its expansion is being planned, as are further plants in North America. RENK is also gaining momentum in the US. Analysts recently speculated that US business could surprise on the upside from 2028 onwards. New orders are already confirming this. And what about SFC Energy? Following the forecast adjustment last summer, the share is looking for new momentum. This may come from internationalization. However, analysts are not yet convinced.

Rheinmetall, First Hydrogen, BYD – Innovations put pressure on the competition
Record military spending, major orders worth billions, and structural rearmament are set to drive the European defense industry for years to come. At the same time, global energy demand is exploding. Modular nuclear reactors and green hydrogen are coming into focus as low-CO₂ base load solutions. And in the field of electromobility, Asian battery manufacturers are massively expanding their cost advantage. As a result, cell prices are falling, ranges are increasing, and Western competitors are coming under pressure. Three future-oriented industries – defense, clean energy, and battery technology – are facing a new wave of investment, but some of the first warning signs are appearing in the charts.

IPO and takeover speculation at Steyr Motors, TeamViewer, and Pure One! Share price set to skyrocket?!
IPO and takeover speculation are important drivers of share prices. At Pure One, there is reason to believe that the share price will jump in the short term. Namely, the IPO of its subsidiary Eastern Gas. The gas exploration company has production rights in Australia, where there are currently problems with gas supply. It is therefore not surprising that the IPO is attracting a lot of interest. Pure One's core business is also interesting. TeamViewer was long considered an attractive takeover candidate. However, this topic has quietened down. Instead, the software company is now considered a big AI loser. Is this justified? Steyr Motors has undergone a spectacular revaluation in 2025. The stock market has high expectations for revenue and earnings growth. To meet these expectations, the supplier of special engines is laying a new foundation.

Energy transition 2.0: Why CHAR Technologies is thinking much further ahead than Enviva and why Plug Power is still dreaming
The global energy market has learned its lesson - electrons alone cannot save heavy industry. While wind turbines and solar parks are making power grids greener, steelmakers and gas suppliers face a physical dilemma: they need carbon molecules – just "green" ones. In this gigantic market for sectors that are difficult to decarbonize, former biomass giant Enviva has already proven that wood is a suitable energy source. But while Enviva has only burned pellets, CHAR Technologies is igniting the next stage of evolution. With their high-temperature pyrolysis (HTP) process, the Canadians are transforming simple biomass not only into heat, but into two high-value industrial products: biochar for the steel industry and renewable natural gas (RNG) for the grid. CHAR is thus delivering exactly the solution that visionaries like Plug Power are striving for with hydrogen, but can often only achieve with billions in investment in new infrastructure. CHAR Technologies uses the existing gas grid and earns money from day one.
