Having this week discussed the Multi Source Power 'Neom' image linked to an AFC FC deployment, here's some very interesting news from Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia commits to net-zero emissions by 2060
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman made the announcement in Riyadh on Saturday at the opening of the Saudi Green Initiative conference

Saudi to start electric-vehicle push in Riyadh
The kingdom aims to ensure at least 30 per cent of the cars in its capital are electric by 2030

On this video, from 7:11:08 they talk about Hydrogen at the Saudi Green Initiative Forum (it's the full 9h 53m video of the conference!)

With Saudi Arabia switching to Natural Gas, my first thoughts are the potential of AFC+Hiiroc.

Maybe AB is there for the recording of a PR video to show the EV Charger in use?

He must be there for some reason?

Maybe that or another deal signed, perhaps with an Italian company. Maybe ENI or ENEL?

I wonder if this will be followed up with an in depth feature on AFC soon? It's the message Extreme E responded to.

What methods are being used to charge these vehicles with no infrastructure around? Nowhere in these broadcasts do they show us the viewers how this is accomplished?"

Yeah, and we had several close up shots of the AFC FC system with the AFC name and logo very visible in the YouTube video, as if they were highlighting it.

Seem s=to be the same solution as here:

Ufufuo,

Good info and that all looks good to me.

Cash generative before Ckikumbi-1 spud date would be great news, especially with our much lower cost base.

The BYD 'blade' LFP batteries are going to kill off Hydrogen cars.

They are:
Cobalt-free
Extremely safe
Won’t burn or explode even if punctured
Don’t require much safety equipment
Good performance
Durable
Do not require any cooling
Simple
Affordable

Many years ago, several large government organisations (USA, EU, UK, etc) stated that once EV batteries achieve a cost of below $100 per kW, they will be cost competitive with combustion vehicles.

I hope you are sitting down for this ....

BYD LFP batteries cost just $64 per kW!!!!

BYD are lining up to sell their LFP batteries to other car mass manufacturers.

I sent the below link to AFC and suggested they respond to it, and also get involved in some of the events from this website, as it is targeting electrification of fleet vehicles, one of AFC's target markets.

The Extreme E video from yesterday, watch from 19:31 , this is their environment section of the video.

HS,

Nice collection!

I bought some Kanan Naturale Stingless Bee Honey to try, it sounds interesting. It's not something you can reproduce at home though, due to the local flowers involved.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stingless_bee

I think a KN-1 RNS is likely in the next 2-3 weeks, potentially with a plan to do the work in QI 2022 in-line with the timing mentioned in today's RNS "The team will then complete the second phase of the seismic shoot in Q1 2022 after the Tanzanian rainy season".

It would also be nice to see plans reappear for the following in 2022:

"Also in August, Aminex told investors that it has identified prospective areas within the Kiliwani North and Nyuni Area concessions which will be the subject of new seismic data acquisition, with plans to acquire some 275 kilometres of 3D seismic."

"The aim is to identify undrained compartments of the Kiliwani North structure and to high-grade the Kiliwani South prospect to ‘drill-ready’ status."

"Kiliwani South has previously been estimated to host a possible 57bn cubic feet of in-place gas."

BB2,

I'm sure they will be following up with this kind of info as the series progresses, as they are doing whatever they can to leave places better than they found them, and set them on a better path for the future where at all possible.

BB2,

Great work!!

BB2,

Any relation?!

Chucky,

I agree. At the prices today, I don't think anyone would have got 57.99p if they were selling 1,000,000 shares worth £579,900. The MM's would have offered them something like 55p for that much stock in one trade.

I'd say it's more likely a buy.

Want to do 600 miles in a day? It can already be done very easily in several models of EV. Here is one example, but as he says in the video, they have done very long mileage in a day in other EV's and you'll find those videos on their page. I like this guy, he's very down to Earth, his videos are very honest, he is not trying to sell you anything in these videos, just explain in simple terms the capabilities and any drawbacks or issues.
