Wow, the news out this week on energy and storage makes me confident we are really looking at a j curve in demand on battery materials, all the signs are there as with EV's.

For balance, there might be some concerns over new technologies replacing fossil fuels:

SAIC plans to launch sales of the electric MG ZS in Europe and other Asian markets.

Starting in the second half of the year, the EV will be exported to the United Kingdom and Australia from China, Wang Xiaoqiu, head of SAIC’s passenger vehicle unit, told the press Saturday.

The installation of the world’s first transmission-connected lithium ion and redox-flow hybrid battery – 41 other UK sites have already been identified as potential sites for replication

I do it. like when the gov recognise the revolution has started

surely they would have been under embargo before releasing the details of their involvement a project they play a very small part in?

Tesla would have you riding horses without holding on:

Tesla will host investors on the morning of April 19th at our headquarters in Palo Alto to provide a deep dive into our self-driving technology and road map.

Investors will be able to take test-drives to experience our Autopilot software first-hand,

Better coverage in this article, the lion's share of storage will be lithium battery 90/10 split versus RedT's Vanadium flow storage, although it does have its place.

However, the story is disruption of transport and energy storage, there are a number of councils throughout UK investing in energy generation and storage and so scaling up to what Oxford will be a natural progression.

https://networks.online/gphsn/news/1001524/energy-superhub-launched-oxford

By 2020 the Energy Superhub Oxford consortium will launch a hybrid lithium ion/vanadium redox flow machine energy storage system (50MW) and a network of ultra-rapid and fast charging stations connected directly to the extra-high voltage transmission system.

The UK is not alone or leaders in this by far!

yes, Fingersxed hydroxide is holding it's price very well and will probably see new highs, good to hear the production costs are not significant, I wonder if this news alone will see an off-taker come forward?

Hydroxide, let's hope it doesn't add too much to the production cost, still very good news hydroxide seems to be the preferred compound for battery manufacturers.

Hastings chairman Charles Lew has supplied cornerstone support of $2 million for the 17¢ a share offer that is a 15 per cent discount to Friday’s closing price of 20¢.

Should be seen as very positive.

You know what observer842, that's a possibility.

The 70 per cent Malaysian-owned then awarded design contracts for two critical components.

Hastings is seeking to raise $24.5 million in an offer arranged by PAC Partners.
