VN Alloys Continue To Lead The Rise, And The Market’s Rising Atmosphere Is Getting Stronger
www.ferroalloynet.com: Vanadium nitrogen alloy continued to lead the rise today, with an increase of nearly 4,000 CNY/Ton. Yesterday, the bidding price of vanadium nitrogen alloy rose to a higher level, and the quotation of alloy plants continued to rise. The market sentiment was positive, and it was more difficult for steel plants to purchase at a lower price, and the transaction price gradually moved closer to a high level. Due to the large number of orders received by some vanadium nitrogen alloy factories in the previous section, coupled with insufficient supply of subsequent raw materials, they are unable to receive the order and will not provide a quotation temporarily. Some manufacturers’ spot prices are not lower than 163,000 CNY/Ton in cash, and there is currently no retail transaction. The ferrovanadium market is relatively stable, with little adjustment in manufacturers’ quotations, and retail transactions are gradually following up. The atmosphere of exploring the rise in the alloy market is becoming increasingly strong, and the raw material end is becoming more reluctant to sell and do not offer a price at the moment. However, the purchasing mentality of most downstream alloy factories is very cautious, and the upstream and downstream continue to remain deadlocked, with few transactions of V2O5 flake and ammonium metavanadate

Last updated 8th may 2023....
As this was mentioned in recent rns i thought i would look back over it.
cant remember reading the below (although i probably did).
In addition to the coal power project, in 2021, Lemur converted 30 MW
out of the total granted generation capacity of 60 MW to solar energy
generation. The resulting solar plants will be located along the
transmission line route. Lemur is currently conducting the technical
feasibility and environmental studies for the solar project. The solar
generation plants will be developed in parallel with the coal power
project and will offset the Imaloto project’s carbon footprint.
Wonder if the plan is to stick some batteries on there too?
