Deutsche Rohstoff AG, Saturn Oil + Gas, Siemens Energy - Weak demand offers opportunities
Persistent concerns about slow demand in China led to a sell-off and pushed oil prices below USD 80 per barrel. According to customs data released over the weekend, diesel and gasoline exports from the major oil importer fell sharply in July, driven by lower crude processing due to weak margins. However, this is offset by supply risks related to tensions in the Middle East and the escalation of the war between Russia and Ukraine, which could bring the current correction to a rapid end.

Shock for Siemens Energy share! BYD and Altech Advanced Materials are going full throttle!
Will the Siemens Energy share price halve? JP Morgan shocked the Company's shareholders with this theory at the beginning of the week. The latest figures were convincing. How did the analysts arrive at the target price, and is there any hope of the share price rising? Altech Advanced Materials is also likely to see its share price rise. The Company is working on next-generation battery technology, and the first prototypes have exceeded expectations. With a high level of equity and strong partners such as Fraunhofer, the rest of the year looks promising. BYD is also going full throttle, aiming for a 5% market share in Europe soon to avoid tariffs.

Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Electric on the decline! Is this the hour of hydrogen?
In recent years, electromobility has been regarded as the undisputed driving force behind the global transport revolution. However, recent developments paint a different picture: stagnating sales figures and growing challenges in the supply of raw materials raise the question of whether the era of electric vehicles has reached its peak. As a result, the focus is shifting to another alternative drive system: hydrogen. With increased investment and technological advances in the hydrogen sector, the question arises as to whether the time has come for hydrogen as an energy source to experience its major breakthrough and win the race for sustainable mobility.

Siemens Energy tops, Evotec shocks, and what is causing the dynaCERT share to explode?
The Evotec share lost more than 35% yesterday. The share was already trading at a multi-year low before this drop. Investors were particularly shocked by the adjustment to the EBITDA forecast. Additionally, the biotech company indicated that it plans to downsize. This year, Siemens Energy has shown how quickly a difficult situation can be resolved. On the verge of bankruptcy at the end of 2023, it is back on track, although not thanks to renewable energies. In contrast, dynaCERT has yet to see its share price explode. A former Daimler manager will take the helm in the coming days and is expected to secure orders in Europe. Additionally, dynaCERT investors are waiting for VERRA certification.

Hydrogen sector receives EU billions: Nel, Plug Power, First Hydrogen share!
Governments love green hydrogen. The EU alone plans to spend over EUR 40 billion by 2030 to decarbonize the energy sector. This includes making steel production, heating operations, and combustion engines CO₂-neutral. Additionally, hydrogen can be used to store surplus renewable energy from solar and wind sources. When the Federal Audit Office recently criticized the slow expansion, the EU reaffirmed its targets. Therefore, the pace of expansion should be stepped up, and companies such as Nel and Plug Power - where tomorrow will be exciting - and First Hydrogen want to benefit from this. While the two heavyweights from Norway and the US are unable to get their losses under control and are still highly valued, the newcomer First Hydrogen may be entering the market at just the right time.

Plug Power, Carbon Done Right, BASF: Raising capital, climate protection projects, and cost optimization for returns
The energy sector is undergoing radical change, with far-reaching consequences for companies across various sectors. The hydrogen specialist Plug Power is struggling with financial bottlenecks despite state subsidies and has to carry out a capital increase on unfavourable terms. The sustainability company Carbon Done Right reports initial successes with its reforestation project in Sierra Leone. The Canadians are thus further establishing themselves in the growing market for CO₂ certificates. The chemical and agricultural company BASF is responding to the changing conditions in Germany by closing plants. The energy transition requires not only technological innovations but also new business models and flexible adaptation strategies. Which of the three companies will win the race this time?

Averting power outages, starting the battery revolution! BASF, Altech Advanced Materials, BYD, and VW
Varta is undergoing a complete restructuring and reorganization, likely leaving legacy shareholders empty-handed. The back and forth since 2023 has given the German SME sector an increasingly unsettling look. The environment is challenging, and only the strongest will survive the looming storm. Traces of Habeck's poor planning can also be seen in the energy transition. Instead of fully utilizing renewable energies, six new gas-fired power plants are now being planned, which will, of course, be powered by hydrogen. This draws investors' attention back to battery storage systems, as they are needed to successfully store surplus energy. Where do the opportunities lie for resourceful investors?

Bloom Energy, First Hydrogen, Nel ASA - Best conditions for a rebound
Germany is not the only country working to develop a sustainable hydrogen market. Economics Minister Robert Habeck recently announced funding for projects totalling EUR 4.6 billion to make the economy climate-neutral. Green hydrogen is set to be a key energy source in the future. The German government projects a hydrogen demand of 95 to 130 TWh annually by 2030 to support industrial decarbonization. This development is not currently reflected in listed companies, which may open up new investment opportunities in the long term.

Plug Power, Saturn Oil + Gas, RWE - Which energy belongs in the portfolio?
The debate about the ideal energy source for the future focuses on hydrogen, oil, and renewable energies. Despite its controversial reputation, oil remains a significant energy source due to its high energy density and well-established infrastructure. Technological advances are also reducing the negative environmental impact. However, renewable energies and hydrogen also offer significant advantages, such as sustainability and low emissions. However, there is a lack of infrastructure to fully exploit the advantages of these technologies. We examine one candidate from each sector and where they stand today.

Top energy transition shares: 100% returns through CO2 reduction! Nel ASA, Plug Power, Carbon Done Right, and dynaCERT
Heat records, floods, and energy shortages! This summer, all climate change issues are on the table. Since the nuclear power plants were shut down, Germany has lacked a reliable base load power supply. Pronounced grid weaknesses are increasing, with no improvement in sight. Economics Minister Habeck wants to build gas-fired power plants as quickly as possible, which can later be operated with hydrogen. Nice idea! Meanwhile, Berlin's economic experts are buying French nuclear power to fill existing gaps. Nobody can scientifically prove the difference in climate technology between here and there, but German consumers are happy to pay for this nonsense through their electricity bills. This is how EU energy policy works. Since expenses are continuously rising, we focus on increasing revenue streams. Here are some ideas for your energy portfolio.
