Also, nice image of Extreme E at the top of the page, with AFC mentioned underneath!

I don't think I saw this posted on here before. AFC are featured in the article. With connections like this, we should definitely do well in UAE, Saudi, Oman, etc.

"The Charge towards Greener Energy starts with Collaboration"
Simon Penney
Her Majesty’s Trade Commissioner for the Middle East and Her Majesty’s Consul General Dubai
Published Oct 3, 2021

"The winning car in the first ever Extreme E race in the Saudi Arabian desert in April was charged with a zero-emission hydrogen power generator, developed by UK-based AFC Energy. AFC Energy has also signed a Memorandum of Understanding in 2021 with Altaaqa Alternative Solutions, one of the world’s largest providers of temporary power solutions, with the intention of establishing an exclusive dealership for the distribution of AFC's fuel cell systems in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East & North Africa regions via a strategic partnership. Their new partnership presents an enormous opportunity for both companies to drive the transition to a cleaner temporary power market."

He's another con man trader that wasn't to be seen when the price was going up, then arrives when the price is going down, because he's sat back and let the price go up, sold out, and now want's the price to go down so he can buy at the bottom again, and make another short term profit. He may also have shorted it to make money on the way down. Best to put these con men on filter, as they are only trying to mess with our minds.

iWantThatOne,

Because the press will be on the lookout for any news that they can tie to COP26 and fill their newspapers or websites with.

Also, because the eyes of the World are on COP26, with business leaders and owners looking at news items surrounding COP26. AFC are bound to hit a load of these people if they get the news on the right industry news platforms.

Anything that mentions COP26 is getting big press coverage already. That won't change just because COP26 is under way, as 99% of the time, COP26 will just be being discussed by attendees, not actually producing news, so journalists will be looking elsewhere for their 'hot off the press' news items.

investmentpro,

I have thought for a while that the huge number of tiny trades is a con by someone. I notice that a string of tiny trades will go through and whatever price they are put through at, the bid or ask moves to that. Look through the trades and prices and look at the price movements either side of the runs of small trades. To me these are controlling the price when supply and demand are not taking over meaningfully.

They are just exploiting the easy movement of the share price if enough of them trade at the same time. Charts are a self fulfilling prophecy if enough trade at the same trigger points, which often they do. They have no interest whether there is news or not, they have stop losses set to cover that possibility, but news doesn't come into their trading decisions.

TuftedDuck,

Good point. Looking at the specs they'll do a few lights, but this is a bit mad, because you can have lights on (not much else at that power), but they only work in daylight, so why would you want lights on only in daylight? Surely you would just use a torch, your phone torch, a candle, etc, or invest in battery storage if you were worried about the fridge freezer getting too warm in a power cut?

Most pointless invention since the right handed screwdriver LOL!

You can easily see that the share price movement is being caused by chart traders. Those same traders are the one's that appear here ramping or bashing the stock depending on which direction they want the price to go, so their trades pay off.

Obviously, they risk news messing up their plans, but being chart traders they don't care, they just move on to the next chart pattern.

It's their own PEM stack, using GORE branded membrane, similar to Nafion but reinforced.

Mucksy,

Who, what for?

Bearing in mind that:

1) Extreme E final at Bovington Army base is on 18+19 December (very high profile event, I'm sure the performance of the FC system will get publicity)
2) AFC on their Website are targeting the military with the S Series
3) AFC said they expect to release prototypes of the S Series by calendar year end

I am pretty sure AB is saving the release of the S Series for COP26. He can do that if he want's, as it is a product release and is a prototype. I don't think a launch at Extreme E is something Extreme E would want, as they want focus on the series and final, so COP26 is the best time to launch it.

News flow before year end (the short and sweet version). Some of these have been announced as 'expected' in H2 or Q4 by AFC, others are possibilities. Could be a run of RNS through COP26.

Several sales of systems (expected)
S Series 'membrane' FC, full scale prototypes (expected)
FC System delivered to ACCIONA (expected)
FC System delivered to Juelich (expected)
Ammonia Cracker (possible)
Alkaline Electrolyser (possible)
Redox Flow Battery (Alkamem) (possible)
Salt Water Battery (Alkamem) (possible)
Direct Ammonia Anion Exchange Fuel Cell (Alkamem) (possible)
Chlor-Alkali Plant (possible)
Fuel Synthesis system (Alkamem) (possible)

Except it still needs a battery if the Sun isn't shining. So yes, you can use one of these and get power when the grid is down but the Sun is up, but not when the Sun is down. Not exactly a cure all is it. How many people in this day and age would buy Solar without battery storage?

Big news for Bloom Energy today. They opened up 23.9% on this. Should boost the sector.

SK ecoplant contracts for a minimum of 500 megawatts of power from Bloom Energy through 2024 at an estimated $4.5 billion in equipment and service revenues
• Bloom Energy and SK ecoplant to create hydrogen innovation centers in the U.S. and South Korea to advance commercialization of green hydrogen
• SK ecoplant targeting approximately $500 million equity investment in Bloom Energy

Bloom Energy (NYSE: BE), a leading energy company, and SK ecoplant, an affiliate of South Korean conglomerate SK Group, today announced the companies are expanding their existing partnership to fortify their market leadership in power generation and to establish market leadership in the hydrogen economy.

Hertz press release:

"Hertz also is installing thousands of chargers throughout its location network. Customers who rent a Tesla Model 3 will have access to 3,000 Tesla supercharging stations throughout the U.S. and Europe."

"With the current order, EVs will comprise more than 20 percent of Hertz global fleet and is expected to be supported by a combination of Level 2 and DC fast charging in approximately 65 markets by the end of 2022 and more than 100 markets by the end of 2023."

Big investment there! Surely will kick off another big wave of EV buying.

I've been asking for that for over a decade, due to the hugely dilutional damage to small cap BRITISH companies and those that invest their hard earned money in them, but the FCA and big money like hedge funds just make false claims that it does not affect the market, when clearly it does, and the hedge funds are often the ones making the money from doing it.

Do turkeys vote for Christmas? That is what we are dealing with, and so long as the FCA are as useful as a chocolate fire grate, nothing will change it.
