- Production increased 24% in 2020, despite covid disruption etc, and will increase a further 20% in 2021.
- Confirmed demand for vanadium demand strengthening (& price rises) in Q4 across all major markets, and confirmation this has continued into Q1 2021.
- Electrolyte Plant update confirms construction will start this quarter (Q1 2021). There presumably will be a RNS to announce this in the coming weeks.
- Completed investments in VRFB manufacturers Invinity and Enerox, and a good reminder of how Bushveld have 1st right of refusal when it comes to supplying vanadium to them both.
... and let's not forget that Enerox did sign a MoU with AVL for them to supply them with vanadium despite BMN's 1st right of refusal, suggesting Bushveld know they will need their vanadium to be supplied somewhere else ... !
Feel there was still lots not said in the Q4 Update, so let's look forward to other newsflow we can expect in Q1:
- Eskom News - Q1
- Electrolyte Plant Construction Start news - Q1
- Official "Update of the company description once the Q4 Update has been published" - as confirmed over email to me. Clearly a sign something is coming which will necessitate that. Also Q1 of course.
Still plenty to come !
Onwards and Upwards : )
