Let's face it Moagi - you just think everyone apart from you and those who hum your tune are stupid. You demonstate that patronising attribute in nearly every post. Your entire condescending persona reeks of ego and self congratulation. Very unpleasant indeed. Nothing wrong with honest critciism of a company - particularly from shareholders - it's their money after all. But your agenda driven campaign, going on for years when you had no vested interest, stinks, and should tell everybody the real reason you choose to post here so we can avail ourselves of you cutting insight. Everyone has the right to post whatever they want and I don't filter anyone - but hopefully your words will be understood for what they really are.
Brad - it states he became a significant holder on 24/07/2020 - it's taken him 10 months to report it to the market - I guess the rules are different there for timely reporting. In Strata-X's 2020 eoy he is stated as holding around 13% - clearly likes Botwana CBM prospects
Ian Collie through two Aus companies - Kabila Investments and Sixth Erra Pty has increased holdings to 33m shares around 5.5%.

Interestingly he also holds stock in Strata-x, now Pure Hydrogen. BotsGas farmed into their Serowe Project earlier this year and are about to start a 3 well drill program. See letter to share holders in link.

Thus may explain much of the activity of certain posters on this board recently.
As I understood it BERA will be the ones who ultimately sanction cross-border selling into the SAPP. Like much of the recent talk of solar and hydrogen potential - it is an entirely possible, maybe even desired future outcome. Ultimately though it's still academic until we are actually a producer of electricty - beyond the 2Mw we currently have an interim PPA for. Let's focus on that for now.
BERA have only been up and running around 4 years and their mandate is:
'The Authority is responsible for providing an efficient energy regulatory framework for Electricity, Gas, Coal, Petroleum products, solar and all forms of renewable energy with the primary mandate of providing the economic regulation of the sectors.
Economic regulation will enable the private sector to play an active role in asset formation that will enable delivery of services that will be reliable, affordable and of good quality, not losing sight of the need to protect the environment.'
The SAPP market structure and operation is evolving all the time - increasing trading outside of the traditional bilateral agreements. If you want to see monthly traded volumes on the DAM, FPM and IDM you can look here.

SAPP participants conditions to trade are:
Having been licensed or given permission by the host country to undertake cross border trading
Acceptance as a Market Particpant by SAPP Executive Committee
Being party to a TSO connected to a SAPP Control Area and have arrangements for Balance Responsibility
Signing the DAM governance documents
Opening of the requisite accounts for trading purposes and having the requisite security for trading purposes
Have at least two trained Traders
An interesting paper for those that wish to understand the SAPP market - its structure, development, function and participant criteria etc.

You can make up your own hypothisis
Haha - the best one yet! A positivity lecture from Marvin the Android. But you're right, on two things actually. One, correct, I would not take your word on anything, two, I do have better things to do with my time. Therefore I won't take up any more board space, leave you to your machinations, and go and watch some Jeremy Kyle repeats; I suspect you might be on it.
Wow - the hypocricy in that post so palpable it's almost solid. Rodin could sculpt it and call it the ****-take. I'm not the one who's spent years on various platforms trashing a stock that I wasn't even invested in and insulting the people that disagreed with me. Generally I'm a fairly mild mannered kind of bloke - but I won't suffer charlatans. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Reality check indeed HB - and we're putting the cart before the horse. However, still interesting stuff and nothing wrong with hypothesising potential. Priorities first tough - It's now been a month since they announced the tender companies. They stated the raise gave them control over the initial phase - I'd like to see an announcement of the commencement of groundworks ASAP.
Hotburrito. Initially I thought the same as you - that they were talking about using the solar to produce hydrogen from water - using either electrolysis or water spliting. As you say this is green hydrogen. But I thought why not just sell the power? They could do this process off-peak I guess - but even so. Then Tlou tweeted this a while back:
'The #Hydrogen potential for @TlouEnergy given huge #CBM reserves (methane = CH4) plus a strategic location with highest solar incidence for #SolarPV generation. All mining and related permits achieved.
This made me think they were talking about hydrogen from methane- which I guess if they have loads of excess gas could make more sense. But as stated not green unless using carbon capture. I went looking at the time and I found these articles below which explain various processes. The second describes a new virtually carbon free process.

'Guess what - the sheep you are trying to lead on this don’t have enough shares to make any kind of impact. Surely even you are not that stupid.'
And yet here you are trying influence those same sheep.
'But I see you still cannot resist an attempt to talk all things up'
And you can't resist talking all things down - however hard you try to give the appearance of being objective - the underlying message is always the same
