Strangy, you say ...IF re all the upside possibles.
Isn't ...IF - just the AIM?
This has a chance to multi-bag. But also a chance to tank.
Personally that's one of the reasons I shop here.
You have to be on your toes and second guessing at every turn. I was reading the RNS thinking, hey, this ain't bad................ then I got to the last paragraph!
But even the last paragraph could mean anything. Placing! or Governments start to plough vast amounts into funding the most reliable source of green energy on the planet. Who knows.
It would appear to me that they have got something right here. At Meygen they state - The operational fourth turbine continues to exceed expectations. During the presentation last week one turbine in Japan was operating at 97% efficency. We are also told that they are a world leader in the tidal turbine business. That bit is great, but also makes me think, where are Seimens etc etc?
This market must have the biggest future potential of any energy market in the world!
Will Simec still be part of it in years to come? I hope so.

I agree with the posters about previous fund raisers and gave been victim of the old scullduggary. However, to own near 12% of the company going into this vital drill shows cahunnahs.
Well done Adonis Pouroulis.

A for me.
Again, been here for too long now. £1 Conga - £5 party!
Let's hope we all get a drink out of it this time.

Well worth a watch.
Is this a home run? - Not quite yet.
But on the whole, I plan to be staying around here for the journey now.
I took out a few bullet points.
Mainly, the change in political will and design.
For design, Drew Baxland says, 'we are all in the same headspace now' in regard to turbine design instead of a few crack pot ideas.
Phil Archer goes on about what would be the latest development in the rotating pitch system. Now Electric, not pneumatic - obviously been causing a lot of problems.
Major opportunities for jobs now we are Brexited.
Turbines are sub-sea, so not on view. And. With tidal countries can plan demand rather than the scatter gun of wind.
The design now seems quite settled, so the view is more on economies of scale.
1.5 meg design is now moving through 2 meg and onto 3MW - view of the unit will not change too much in the future.
Now designing for upto 8 turbines to drive through one set up. They have been using a quite bespoke one at a time stand alone set up.
Give it a watch. Tidal is definately part of all our futures.

Guys not invested hear, but obviously very interested in the thread content.
I am in agrement that all we get from our media is the worst case scenario. However, one thing that seems to be missing in the conversation is that S.A will be at the height of their summer, and us at the depths of winter.

Troajan, you forgot this one......................

Sigh.

I often take a lot from the opening of an RNS.
Please to announce - update the company, etc. etc. - BUT
Serica Energy plc (AIM: SQZ), is delighted to announce!
They seem quite keen on the new signing!
Here's hoping.
Danno.

Last week in October this was climbing by the day. Since then, nearly a 25% drop!
So placing at 10-12% below market price my A---!
AIM at its best.

I'm all for a positive approach.
But, your posting begins to fit more into a Pantomime than a serious discussion given recent events.
Typical AIM.
See CHAR for my other most recent investment to be spammed on placing. Yes. Just earlier today. If it all leads to profits then hey Ho, but there is a hint of legalised mates rates right across the board.
Danno

Reminiscent of early GKP. Mates rates etc.
But, if it follows the GKP trajectory 2007/8/9/10 then I for one am in.

Sorry wrong board!
Apologies.

Thordon,
For my money, the rise most probably would have happened on Friday with the CFD news, but as we all know, the market was in free fall.

Daft. Reliable???
Have you ever needed to check a tide timetable.
Pretty reliable.
Danno

I'm new here as of yesterday. I noticed the HMG £300m package.
Looks like a lot going on.
It beggars belief in my mind that we are so far behind with tidal power. It has to be the most reliable green energy source going and here we are with literally thousands of miles of coastline to play with.
Looking forward to this begining to grow. That chart does look like a long term ski slope!

I follow the boards general sentiment here.
I also looked at what will be affected by any COVID spike.
One thing we will all need if there were to be such an occurrence is a plentiful supply of gas to keep us warm while either recovering or working from home!
One Prof was quoted on the BBC, saying similar to, while it's not good news, it's not a doomsday scenario either ...

It is official! The parties agreed on the legalization of cannabis in Germany in their coalition agreement.

"We are introducing the controlled distribution of cannabis to adults for consumption purposes in licensed stores. This will control quality, prevent the transfer of contaminated substances and ensure the protection of minors. We will evaluate the law for social impact after four years. We are enabling and expanding drug checking models and harm reduction measures. In alcohol and nicotine prevention, we are focusing on increased education with a particular focus on children, young people and pregnant women. We are tightening regulations on marketing and sponsorship for alcohol, nicotine and cannabis. We continually measure regulations against new scientific findings and align health protection measures with these findings."

Muck,
I imagine the debt is the biggest.
On another note, anyone have any views on when / if the fracking moratorium will be reviewed?
