"Security energies" – how to invest: RWE, Iberdrola, and RE Royalties as stable sources of returns
The energy debate has been conducted differently for some time now than it was in the 2010s. While decarbonization was long considered an ecological necessity, it has now become a question of national sovereignty under the banner of "security energies." This new perspective is being fueled by current geopolitical upheavals and the de facto blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, which once again reveals the fragility of our supply chains. With around 20% of global oil consumption passing through this bottleneck, prices for crude oil and liquefied gas have already risen significantly. In this context, German Federal Environment Minister Carsten Schneider coined the term "security energies" to emphasize the decentralized nature of renewable energy as a shield against exogenous shocks. Renewable energy projects are not subject to the logic of geopolitical conflicts and also generate added value in the region, as a wind farm, for example, can generate annual revenues of around EUR 200,000 for a municipality. Renewable energy can also become a safety anchor for investors thanks to stable cash flows.

War – Shortages – Capitulation! Nel ASA, American Atomics, Oklo, and Siemens Energy in focus
In an environment where capital markets are already highly strained, another Middle East conflict has emerged at the beginning of March - this time involving Israel, the US, and Iran. Naturally, Hezbollah in Lebanon also stands ready to support its financiers from the Persian state. All of this adds fuel to an already overheated situation that can hardly cool down due to global shortages of energy, weapons, and raw materials. For stock market traders, this environment presents both opportunities and risks, because where there are losers, there are always winners as well. With oil and gas prices 15% higher, alternative energy sources are quickly coming back into focus. Stocks such as Nel ASA, which had already faded somewhat, are thus getting a new lease of life. A particularly strong spotlight is now falling on the nuclear industry, as it is more important than ever. Risk-conscious investors may still want to jump on the moving train.

Uranium as a geopolitical bargaining chip after the Hormuz shock - Standard Uranium, Kazatomprom, and F3 Uranium in focus
The escalation in the Middle East, which culminated in a de facto blockade of the Strait of Hormuz following the death of Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has triggered a global energy shock. With around one-fifth of global oil consumption passing through this bottleneck, oil prices have skyrocketed. In their latest market forecasts, analysts at JPMorgan warn of scenarios in which the price could rise to USD 130 or, in extreme cases, up to USD 300 per barrel. This is hitting Asian industrial nations particularly hard and has ruthlessly exposed the vulnerability of international supply chains for fossil fuels. In this environment, uranium is becoming a decisive geopolitical bargaining chip, as nuclear power, at least since the recent conflagration in the Middle East, must no longer be seen merely as a measure of climate protection, but as an instrument of national security and energy sovereignty. We present three uranium companies and highlight which stocks are most interesting for investors.

Energy transition winners: Nordex and Siemens Energy already highly valued, "latecomer" A.H.T. Syngas Technology still offers potential
The world is facing a challenge that can no longer be postponed. On the one hand, the pressure to meet global climate targets is increasing. On the other hand, energy demand continues to grow in an increasingly digital and electrified economy. Three companies are operating in this area of tension. While Nordex and Siemens Energy focus on large-scale wind power generation and grid infrastructure, A.H.T. Syngas Technology addresses decentralized energy solutions through the intelligent utilization of waste materials. This report highlights how these three players are driving the transformation and why the innovative strength of the "latecomer" A.H.T. Syngas in particular could make a real mark on the market. In any case, the chart is already trending upwards.

Dividend powerhouses like Kimberly-Clark and General Mills: How RE Royalties could benefit from AI
When it comes to investing, substance is set to regain importance in 2026, as JPMorgan Asset Management writes in its "2026 Year-Ahead Investment Outlook." The market environment is characterized by geopolitical fragmentation, while at the same time the rise of artificial intelligence is creating new structural demand for decentralized energy solutions. In this context, innovative revenue models such as royalties can form the foundation of a robust dividend portfolio. We present the established consumer goods giants Kimberly-Clark and General Mills, and also discuss innovative financing models in the renewable energy sector, as successfully implemented for years by the still relatively unknown company RE Royalties.

Price explosion and price alert! Gerresheimer, Nordex, and AI profiteer American Atomics!
Price explosion at Nordex. After strong quarterly figures, the share price shot up by around 17% in a single day. The company is riding a wave of success, and its order backlog indicates that this trend will continue. Even if the share is no longer a bargain. American Atomics shares are still waiting for a price explosion. The company is active in a market that will make a comeback in the coming decades: uranium. The AI boom is leading to the construction of countless new nuclear power plants. This has also been evident recently in India. Virtually all the major US AI players were present at the India AI Impact Summit. More than USD 250 billion is to be invested in AI infrastructure. Nuclear power capacity is set to increase more than tenfold to 100 GW. American Atomics also plans to benefit from this. At Gerresheimer, on the other hand, the crash continues. After analysts slashed the price target, BaFin also expanded its investigations. Investors are shocked.

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.

New German hydrogen gem! Will A.H.T. Syngas eclipse the old favorites Plug Power and Nel ASA?
Is it time for a changing of the guard in the hydrogen sector? The old favorites Plug Power and Nel ASA have been falling short of expectations for years. Yet the benefits of hydrogen in the energy mix of the future are undisputed. A.H.T. Syngas is on its way to becoming the new hydrogen gem. The company produces synthetic natural gas substitutes from biogenic residues and, in the future, hydrogen as well. A.H.T. Syngas has recently achieved an important breakthrough. In addition, it is in the process of transforming itself from a pure plant manufacturer to an energy producer. The revaluation has begun, but is far from complete. Analysts see considerable upside potential.

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.
