I’ve just had a couple of friends over to pick up a large collection of ladies and children’s clothing that my wife has coordinated with a group of her friends.
Our friends decided to host a Ukrainian mother and her child and they arrived in Bristol on Wednesday after an arduous journey. These people are so utterly devastated by the atrocities taking place in Ukraine, they are most likely suffering PTSD. A whole wall out of their apartment had been blown away and absolutely nothing left inside the apartment!
Their husbands and fathers to their traumatised children remain in Ukraine of course, and whilst they are now in the safety of UK shores they still suffer the hardship of speaking to their families that remain in Ukraine. This lady and her son have £400 to their name plus the clothes they arrived in.

So the point of my post is to prick the consciences of the individuals who invade these forums to attempt to manipulate the share prices of companies like AFC for their own gain.
We ALL have a duty to do what we can :
a) to ensure Putin and his vile cronies are no longer paid for their fossil fuels that are funding this absurd war in Ukraine and other countries. Not only are we funding their war effort but we are subsidising their obscene lifestyles. This has to stop!
b) let’s not forget that we have to ensure the world is cleaned up so that our children have a planet to live in and ensure the likes of Ukraine have a purpose to rebuild their broken countries.

Supporting companies like AFC is not just a way for us to invest and hopefully make a profit but we ALL have a duty to support these fledgling companies so that the above two points can win through.

I am absolutely sick of reading people responding to the likes of Garonne. They are the minority.
The majority here, who have a conscience and want companies like AFC to address these massive world issues absolutely will succeed!

Thanks for your time on this May bank holiday.

Oh ffs just put the snivelling little tick on ignore! I’ve been out all day and it’s insane coming back to a load of repetitive posts about that idiot! Just filter it !

Thanks Haggis for posting the pictures about what we’re here to discuss..AFC !

As far as I can see, the L series is still in contention. It’s been improved and they clearly wanted to showcase it at UAP as well as the Power Tower. Until AFC themselves tell us point blank that the Lseries is not part of our product portfolio, then we have no right to dismiss it idly on a discussion board.
Great to see UAP showcased for the first time in the UK with significant world wide interest. The Shell tie up with ABB is also significant news this week and could surely lead to significant world wide orders for AFC.
Get real folks and filter this idiot as many did 18 months ago!

Thanks Heath23 - sounds like an interesting day out!
Hydrogen needs to become more mainstream and with everything going on regarding gas and oil in the world, companies will surely be accelerating Hydrogen. Even BoJo mentioned it today in the House of Commons.

AFC need to make a concerted effort to get their name out there and hopefully the new marketing recruit will serve this purpose in the coming weeks once he’s settled in. Energy is on everyone’s mind at the moment whether it be from an economic or environmental perspective. Exciting times! AFC need to deliver now as this should be our moment to shine!

Hi AaronJ - Garmoan hasn’t changed in almost 2 years. I soon got very tired of his ‘woe is me’ attitude. He clearly has an agenda to create negativity around AFC. My conscience was clear when I filtered him a month after he appeared some 2 years ago and he is absolutely one to ignore in my opinion. Replying constantly will cause yourself anxiety whilst he is quietly chuckling to himself as he is either paid or part of a group that drags companies like AFC down before they’re given a chance to succeed. Such behaviour is vile and shows how despicable and greedy fellow humans can be. They’re very much in the Putin camp. Strong analogy perhaps but sadly true.

Hi Alt, I wasn’t suggesting there was a pecking order of course. Just that doubters should take note!

4th position: AFC Energy plc

Looks like great PR to me…

DW..you should be on the stage….. sweeping it !
:-D

Seg- I remember reading somewhere a few years ago that there’s a simple remedy by painting one of the blades and this reduced bird collisions drastically.

Potential opportunity for AFC. I’ve just sent this across to them. Just think of the number of polluting ferries in the world…

Jim - thanks for sharing your view after attending the AGM.
I think also, the hydrogen economy has been slow to get any momentum. Looking back, we’ve discussed previously that the business model has changed significantly from the time many of us first invested here but we could all see the potential. Look how the hydrogen supply market has changed in that time - when we were previously looking towards waste hydrogen from other processes, we now have new sources of hydrogen from green/grey/blue electrolysis methods, ammonia cracking, methanol reforming plus other waste to energy methods that will all come to market in the near future, if not already available now. This hydrogen source change has therefore transformed the possible use cases into a whole new H2 economy that the world is in now acknowledging that we need and need right now as part of a diverse and stable energy mix. As a result of this, AFC are responding to the quickly changing needs of the many diverse markets that can adopt hydrogen. AFC have chosen to focus on some key pillars to get us commercial right now and this will be off-grid EV charging and diesel genset replacement.
Yes, we’ve waited a long time to get here and it’s been a frustrating journey for many of us, but I remain convinced that we have viable products to get us to sales and a pipeline of other major markets that we can focus on now for the other pillars such as data centres and maritime.
Yes, of course we need sales and hopefully with ABB firmly embedded plus the imminent delivery of Power Towers to our construction industry partners, we will get there in the upcoming months. So I’m happy to hold and may even top up when funds become available.

We know that an updated website is forthcoming.
We know that AFC are talking to directly to partners/customers….ABB, Mace, Acciona, Keltbray, Urban Airport, Altaaqa, Juelich. Yes, an updated website is needed and they have acknowledged this and are acting on it we understand. I suspect there will be conversations with other leasing companies right now

It’s an interesting question though as if the Towers are linked together you’d probably just want one fuel source and converter to serve all Towers, which would be a cost saver perhaps

Hi B&S - so the question is whether the 3 fuel conversion units featured on slide 5 of the presentation will also be included in the Towers
I can envisage the ammonia cracker and H2 purification modules fitting in(no idea of scale from the pic though) but having a steam reformer might require separation from a fire safety perspective? I’m not an engineer but those are my thoughts

Seeing some of the posts on here today just proves that there are some unusual “characters “ in this world.
Those who managed to attend the AGM yesterday were no doubt very fortunate to witness first hand how far AFC has come on and more importantly, where the company is heading. The AGM is a meeting to reflect on the previous 12 months but the presentation gives us plenty of clues about the future trajectory in what will undoubtedly be a fast moving and fast changing energy world.

We should not expect attendees to report on their personal findings of the AGM. It is a bonus if they are prepared to share and there should be no abuse or pressure laid on them. It’s a shame that posters have to resort to abuse/bullying on what should be a healthy discussion board.
The presentation link that Alt-muddle kindly posted should be enough for us all to feel confident that AFC is heading to an exciting future. I’m as frustrated as anyone else that we’re not we we thought we wanted to be but such is life. We are in capable hands and we have partners that can truly take us places. I look forward to the upcoming months as integration tech is delivered and we can see delivery of the S series together with sales (hopefully) of the HFC.

I’m under no doubt at all that the hydrogen economy is going to deliver at pace and that AFC is best placed to take advantage of this.

Now could we ALL get back to making this board a place for healthy mature discussion ?

Cheekboy2 - you have the cheek to come on here with that blatant untruth ! Filtered!

Given that there’s a major war on our our European doorstep by a super power who has no respect for international law and human life plus an ongoing worldwide pandemic, I’d suggest the share price is doing remarkably well and in line with our sector peers!

This was an AGM and the accounts of the AGM presentations I’ve heard either on here, or separately, show that AFC has moved on significantly in the past couple of years and for me, the pictures of both Power Tower product variants show that we now have products that our partners and customers need going forward. We are at the start of an energy transition period and I believe AFC is uniquely positioned to take advantage of this with their world class leading technology.

Many will put a negative spin on anything that comes out of the agm and continue to attempt to keep the SP down. What idiots these people are - embrace the company you have allegedly invested in and let this company succeed for pity sake!

There are countless reasons why we need this company and others like it to succeed.

Over what period I wonder

Why would ABB be selling our products? They’d have a requirement to use our EV Tower in a specific situation that their customers would require. We’d receive a sale/lease on the back of that. That’s my understanding.

Agreed that this is fantastic news and shows the confidence in the EV charging market that will need to keep pace with growing demand for EVs. Worldwide there should be huge demand for off grid solutions or interim solutions prior to grid upgrades. Very pleased with this additional product variant to sit alongside the world’s fastest EV charger developed by ABB

In my opinion, I see a huge market going forward in distributed energy generation just as governments already looking at small scale nuclear. I would think it’s far better use of resources to generate green hydrogen from wind and storing this hydrogen ready for peak generation when required rather than using huge batteries which consume limited natural resources.
So, the original market for AFC was to use waste/vented hydrogen at local sites. The concept hasn’t changed other than we now have far better ways to generate green hydrogen and/or ammonia. Makes sense to me anyway.
