28p then 14p by xmas.

Hi Dom, no, best guess it coincided with nasdaq leg down which is still going.

The world’s soon-to-be largest offshore wind farm has broken a new record on Tuesday, placing the biggest turbine order for GE’s 13-megawatt (MW) Haliade-X model...

Thanks Bambs, yes Musk clearly trying to move away from Cobalt... recycling rates should bring some back into new batteries
eventually sadly Cobalt single use with oil so thats not possible so. Was expecting him to mention supercaps and I see some have taken a knock today on that, not looked a Ilika though.

Talking with friends in Portland yesterday, the sky is blood red there, so thick with smoke you cant even take the dog out, they are very worried.

Bamps, are you talking about fuel cell electric vehicles or just electric vehicles bevs, they both have batteries in, albeit much smaller in the fcev.

Of course the biggest consumer of cobalt is the oil industry to remove sulphur. But have they been under investigation Hmm.....

The use of cobalt in desulphurisation reactions represents the highest tonnage of cobalt use in the catalyst sector.

EE a motorsport fan guilt trip .....I'm sure the children of Greenland are well aware of the climate change situation without an SUV rally to help them along........... Of course Unicef will be in it for the money on the back of a 'green' motorsport. Total nonsense and will be seen as such. Change tack or run this into the ground AB

Councils may fund grid upgrades for EVs....

The proposal to invest in the grid follows a report by consultant Asset Utilities that concluded the area’s electricity network will not cope with future demand.

It concluded that additional demand, notably driven by the electrification of transport, could almost triple the existing electricity demand in the Greater Cambridge area, from 240MW to 710MW by 2031.

“It is clear that the electricity network as designed, is unable to meet the future electrical demand requirements or the changing face of technology (EV connections) in Greater Cambridge,” said UKPN.

It identified a need for three new substations and a new East Cambridge interconnector. The preliminary estimated cost, excluding land acquisition, of the investments is about £44m. Land could add a further £1.5m, the GCP believes.

I think Tidal has been left out a tad here...
