Big News for the Next Generation of Electric Vehicle Batteries

September 21, 2022 By admin Leave a Comment

It’s been a while since we had a look at the backlog of container ships waiting to unload their cargo at the Port of Los Angeles. The Pacific Ocean near Los Angeles, and San Francisco for that matter, looked like a parking lot during the pandemic… I saw it with my own eyes flying overhead to/from the West Coast.

I thought it might be interesting for us to check in and see what things are like today…

Not surprisingly, there has been a long decline in the queue of container ships since February of this year. The pandemic is clearly over, and logistics teams got back to work clearing out containers on the dock and returning to more normal operations.

August was still busy, with a queue of about 25 ships, but what happened in the last few weeks has been striking. At the start of this month, the queue had dropped to just eight ships, an all-time record low.

That might sound like a good thing. After all, the queue was a symptom of the lack of labor to both unload containers from ships, clear those containers through customs, and haul them out of the port via trucks to distribution centers. Finally, it appears that this backlog has cleared… which means that lead times for goods coming from Asia should quickly return back to pre-pandemic levels.

But the busy August masked what’s really going on. Container imports to the U.S. have collapsed 36% year-over-year. The rapid decline began in May, and it’s really starting to show in the numbers.

What does it mean? There’s an excess in inventories in consumer goods in the U.S., which make up more than 75% of all imports. With “real” inflation much higher than the consumer price index (CPI), discretionary spending has collapsed… and with it, demand.

Imports are suffering as a result. And it’s easy to see the weakening economy now that the Port of Los Angeles has cleared out its container backlog. There’s no hiding it now.

Sadly, even with excess inventories and rapidly declining freight costs, prices for goods and services will remain at elevated levels well into 2023. But on the bright side, the days of 6-month lead times, or not being able to find that PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, should be well behind us.

A new player enters the fray to power EVs…

A very interesting company in Utah just came out of stealth mode – Ionic Mineral Technologies. This one caught my eye because it could be big news for the next generation of electric vehicle (EV) batteries.

Ionic Mineral Technologies mines halloysite – a mineral it uses to produce “nano-silicon.”

That’s possible because halloysite is an aluminum-silicate clay that naturally occurs with a nano-tubular structure. This quality makes it a great resource for producing high-quality nano-silicon as a material input for EV batteries.

We’ve written a lot in The Bleeding Edge about solid-state batteries. There is an extensive list of companies working on that technology. And most design their batteries with silicon anodes instead of graphite ones (the typical approach for lithium-ion batteries).

This is important for two big reasons…

First, compared to graphite, silicon anodes provide greater energy density (i.e., charge capacity).

This is key for solving a major issue holding back EV ownership – limited range. Silicon anodes enable people to travel further with these batteries before needing to recharge.

And second, a big EV owner complaint is the 30-45 minutes it takes for their cars to charge. The reality is that most EV owners don’t have access to a 240-volt charger at their home or apartment.

With silicon anode batteries, it’s possible to charge an EV to 80% capacity in about five minutes… a fraction of the time.

But these silicon anodes aren’t perfect. They suffer one major challenge. Silicon swells and contracts during the charge and discharge stages. And dendrites are formed during this process which can, in the worst case, lead to fires.

That’s where Ionic comes into play. It believes its nano-silicon will be a game changer with solid-state batteries. This nano-silicon material has the potential to address this swelling problem.

That’s why I’m going to be keeping an eye on Ionic. I’ll be watching in particular to see if any of the leading-edge EV battery companies begin to adopt the nano-silicon material.

Ionic is unique in that it owns the resource for producing nano-silicon. The company controls 2.4 million tons of halloysite resources in Utah. This is the world’s largest deposit of high-purity halloysite.

The company expects its Utah-based manufacturing plant will be up and running by the end of Q2 next year. Then it will have the capacity to produce tens of thousands of tons of nano-silicon a year that it can sell to battery makers.

And since Ionic is building its plant on U.S. soil, this will help domestic supply chains secure materials. It’s yet another piece in the Great Recalibration I’ve been writing about in these pages, and it’s potentially great news for domestic EV makers.

So this company could be revolutionary for solid-state EV batteries, especially if designs start incorporating its nano-silicon material.

[Breakthrough Tech: New Vehicle Shocks EV Market]

eVTOL technology continues gaining momentum…

We’ll continue with another frequent topic in these pages – electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles (eVTOLs).

United Airlines just stepped up and made a firm commitment for purchasing more electric air taxis.

Last year, we covered its $1 billion order for eVTOLs from Archer Aviation. This August, United paid out $10 million of that payment for the first 100 eVTOLs from Archer Aviation.

Well, now United is upping the ante for its electric air taxi fleet. The airline just ordered another 200 taxis from Eve Air Mobility, with an option to buy 200 more.

This order came as United invested $15 million into Eve Air. So it clearly sees something it likes… and is hedging its bets.

Now, keep in mind that this is not a recommendation for Eve Air (EVEX). Currently, it has an enterprise value of $2.9 billion, yet it’s years away from any kind of material revenue. It’s currently trading at a valuation that reflects about 63 times forward 2025 annual revenue estimates. And it’s going to be bleeding cash until that time. It will most certainly require additional financing that will further dilute shareholders.

So while this isn’t an interesting investment opportunity right now, it is still a company to watch. Major airlines are pairing up with their eVTOL partners in preparation for what they believe is coming.

The future of transportation includes how air transportation is changing. It’s not just about supersonic aircraft like the kind of technology that Boom Supersonic is pursuing. It’s also about the kinds of short hops that eVTOLs can support.

These air taxis can carry three or four passengers about 150 miles. This could enable people to commute to work from a rural area into a city.

Or people could use them to travel from one part of a city to another. Los Angeles or New York City are perfect examples. They have so much traffic, it can be miserable and inefficient getting around.

So people could opt for eVTOLs for convenience in congested cities. We could take an eVTOL right to JFK airport, bypassing all the traffic.

And these electric vehicles are emission-free, which will make them attractive to some. Once we have clean energy generation to power them, these aircraft could be a “green” option for transportation.

Regardless, this is yet another example of the gaining momentum in eVTOL technology. We’ve come a long way in a few short years…

And it won’t be long until we could start seeing more of these aircraft in the skies where we live. I doubt we’ll have to wait much longer than 2025-2026 before there is widespread use of this technology.

Starlink goes live in Antarctica…

A couple weeks ago, we had another look at Starlink – a division of SpaceX – partnering with T-Mobile in enabling remote cell phone coverage.

Now, Starlink has launched service availability in all seven continents.

That’s because its service just arrived at McMurdo Station on the coast of Antarctica, delivering high-speed broadband to the outpost.

That’s huge because McMurdo historically hasn’t had enough bandwidth to run all its scientific programs. Internet bandwidth has been rationed and in high demand at such a remote location.

What’s interesting about the deployment in Antarctica isn’t just Starlink’s availability. It’s actually how SpaceX is making it happen.

The issue at hand is that there aren’t any ground stations connected to fiber optic networks in Antarctica. So SpaceX is accomplishing this high speed broadband internet connection using space lasers. Cool, right? The lasers allow for high-speed connections between satellites.

So rather than beaming up from a ground station to a Starlink satellite and back down to Antarctica, Starlink uses space lasers to send data back and forth between other Starlink satellites until it is in range of a ground station (for example in Australia).

While the world sees Starlink has a satellite-based internet provider, I believe that the endgame is to create a space-based, interplanetary, body backhaul network. That’s the big play.

The backhaul network is only possible with a laser-enabled communication system from satellite to satellite. That way, Starlink will need fewer ground stations and be able to provide coverage to places where ground stations aren’t an option or simply don’t make any sense.

Is this the beginning of interstellar broadband infrastructure? Musk is crazy enough, and smart enough, to put something like that together.

This will be a vast improvement for people who live in rural areas and developing countries – as well as remote locations like Antarctica… or even the Moon. And needless to say, it will put Starlink and SpaceX in an enviable position.

How the Apple Self-Driving Car Will Take VR on the Road…

May 18, 2022 By admin Leave a Comment

But there has been one part of my portfolio that hasn’t felt any of the pain. That’s why I’ve been drawing readers’ attention to one specific kind of investment – private investments. These private shares can offer peace of mind… and help us sleep well at night no matter what the stock market is doing.

That’s because private companies aren’t vulnerable to the whims of public sentiment or Wall Street traders. Their valuations can climb no matter what the markets are doing.

And this Wednesday, I’m going to tell investors all about how to begin investing in the private markets – even if we aren’t accredited investors.

On May 18, at 8 p.m. ET, I’ll explain why these investments are a great hedge against market volatility… and talk about one particular area of private investing I want all my readers to know about. I call these opportunities “crypto placements.” And they have all the benefits of private investing… without all the wild swings of the crypto markets.

Quantum computing is more advanced than we know…

IBM just announced its roadmap for quantum computing development over the next three years. And the company’s projections are nothing short of incredible.

When we last checked in on IBM, the company had plans to release its 127-qubit quantum computer. That was back in February of last year.

As a reminder, qubits are the basic units that enable a quantum computer to function. It’s the quantum equivalent of the “bits” that power our laptops and desktop computers. And the more qubits, the more processing power a quantum computer has.

And IBM is planning on increasing its quantum computing horsepower dramatically over the next few years…

The company now plans to launch its 433-qubit quantum computer later this year. It will follow that up with a 1,121-qubit system next year. And then IBM expects to release a 4,158-qubit quantum computer by 2025.

That represents an 860% increase in qubits in just three years. Yet in terms of quantum processing power, that represents computing systems that are millions of times more powerful.

Most experts thought this pace would be impossible in the quantum space. But IBM has found a way to have multiple quantum processors work in parallel with one another. That’s how the company expects to get to 4,158 qubits by 2025.

Here’s a simple visual:

IBM’s Quantum Computer Processor

Here we can see three quantum processors linked together to work in tandem. IBM is taking a modular approach to connecting multiple processors that contain qubits, thereby dramatically increasing the capabilities of its quantum computers.

And here’s the most exciting part of the story…

IBM is not a leader in the quantum computing space. I’m sure it lags behind companies like Google, Rigetti Computing, and IonQ in terms of actual performance.

[New Battery Breakthrough: Could Revolutionize the $2 Trillion Automotive Industry]

So if IBM is on track to release such advanced quantum computing systems over the next three years, I suspect these three companies are even further along… except none of them have revealed their detailed product road maps and what they are currently working on in their labs.

They have been intentionally flying under the radar, and I suspect that is to gain what will ultimately be a competitive advantage.

Simply put, the rise of quantum computing changes everything.

As I recently discussed with popular radio host Glenn Beck, advanced quantum computing will force us to completely overhaul our cybersecurity systems. It’s also the technology that will help us develop new materials and molecular compounds for things like energy production, pharmaceuticals, and electric vehicle (EV) batteries.

At the end of last year, I predicted that at least one company would release a 256-qubit quantum computer this year, and that we’d see breakthroughs in the quantum computing industry. 2022 is already proving to be exciting, and I know we’re in for some major announcements in the second half of this year.

Project Titan just got a lot more interesting…

We talked just last week about how Apple’s Project Titan is nearing commercialization.

As a reminder, this is Apple’s secretive electric vehicle (EV)/self-driving car initiative. And it’s more ambitious than we thought…

Apple just received a new patent that envisions building virtual reality (VR) technology right into its self-driving car.

Here’s a sketch from the patent:

Apple VR Patent Tech

As we can see, Apple will integrate a VR system directly into its car design.

Passengers will be able to tilt their chairs back and pop on the VR headset. Then they can either enjoy entertainment or do something productive, like taking a work meeting.

I can imagine Apple having a suite of travel-related VR apps where passengers can look outside the window and see different landscapes even though the car is in a dense urban environment.

And Apple takes it a step further than the basic VR experience.

The patent also envisions the VR system working in conjunction with the car’s audio system, heating and air system, and even the seat itself. These systems will perform certain functions autonomously to enhance the passenger’s VR experience.

For example, imagine the passenger is engaged in a VR experience that simulates sailing. This could trigger the car’s air system to turn on and simulate a breeze blowing over the water. The VR system could also trigger the passenger’s chair to gradually tilt back and forth to simulate the feeling of being in a boat.

What Apple is doing here is patenting the user experience for autonomous transportation.

So it turns out Project Titan isn’t just about a beautiful self-driving car. Apple is very much focused on delivering a unique experience inside the car as well.

[Exclusive: Company Pioneering this New Battery could be the Investment of a Lifetime]

If we think about a world in which there are competing fleets of self-driving cars, each vying for customers – what sets one fleet apart from the others? It has to be the user experience.

And the user experience is what Apple is clearly looking to differentiate its autonomous cars compared to anything else in the market. I can’t wait to go for a ride.

The James Webb Space Telescope is almost fully calibrated…

We have been tracking the deployment of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) closely this year. And today we have yet another stunning update…

For the sake of newer readers, the JWST is the most complex telescope ever constructed. What’s more, it was launched to a destination about one million miles from Earth back in February.

We call its destination the LaGrange Point 2 (L2). It’s on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. That makes it incredibly cold, which is great for the telescope’s performance.

JWST is currently going through the calibration process. We expect the first fully calibrated images to come back as early as July.

That said, JWST has sent a few images back already. They aren’t as advanced as what we will get once the telescope is fully calibrated. But they are still incredible.

We can see just how powerful JWST is by comparing a recent image from the JWST of the same spot in a galaxy to images from older infrared telescopes…

The Same Image from Different Telescopes

As we can see, these images are of the same objects. We can see the string of four objects from the lower left to the upper right of the image. The only difference is that different telescopes took them over the last two decades.

We are looking at images of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). It’s a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way.

And get this – LMC is about 160,000 light years away from Earth.

The image on the left is from the WISE telescope back in 2003. The one in the middle is from Spitzer in 2008. And on the right is an image just sent back by the JWST.

Here we can see just how advanced the JWST is when compared to previous telescopes. The difference in resolution is dramatic.

And think about this – JWST’s images are only going to get clearer with even higher resolution.

Here’s the most exciting part…

NASA hasn’t yet told us what the JWST’s first scientific target will be. It has been very secretive about what the telescope will focus on first.

So we can look forward to more information from NASA within the next month or two. I’m very excited to see the next images that the telescope reveals…

This “Tiny” Tech will have a Huge Impact on Energy and Beyond…

May 4, 2022 By admin Leave a Comment

Just How Small Is Nano?

Throughout the 20th century, engineers tried to make things smaller. After all, the smaller a piece of hardware, the less time it would take for the electrons to go from one place to another.

And so, for example, we’ve seen the computer go from the size of a room to the size of your back pocket…

As a result, electronics have become lighter, cheaper, and more efficient. So this approach made sense.

But nanotechnology takes the opposite approach. It’s about engineering things from a molecular level. It’s about building things from the bottom up, atom by atom… manipulating matter on the nanoscale.

So how small is nanoscale, exactly?

Let’s break it down…

A centimeter is one-hundredth of a meter… There are 100 centimeters in a meter.

A millimeter is one-thousandth of a meter… There are 1,000 millimeters in a meter.

A nanometer is one-billionth of a meter. There are 1 billion – 1,000,000,000 – nanometers in a meter.

For perspective, one strand of human hair is 50,000 to 100,000 nanometers wide.

So, we’re talking microscopically small.

But this “tiny” technology will have a huge impact…

[New Battery Breakthrough: Could Revolutionize the $2 Trillion Automotive Industry]

This Revolutionary Technology Will Change Lives

Nanotech applications have an almost infinite variety of uses in virtually every field.

One of the most promising applications is medicine.

Doctors could send nano machines through your arteries to clear plaque. This could help prevent heart attacks and strokes.

These machines could repair damage within every single cell in a human body. They could even assemble new organs to replace aging ones – with perfect precision.

And they could be used to deliver drugs – chemotherapy, for example – on a targeted basis.

But nanotechnology has applications outside of healthcare, too.

Nanomachines could help solve environmental problems by breaking down pollutants and toxins. They could even reassemble them into useful materials.

And nanotechnology is revolutionizing manufacturing as well.

In 2004, scientists at the University of Manchester isolated a layer of carbon just one atom thick. This is called graphene.

Graphene is the thinnest material known to man. It is six times lighter than steel, but 200 times stronger. Adding a miniscule amount of graphene to concrete can reduce the amount of concrete needed in construction by up to 20%.

And graphene is almost entirely transparent. It absorbs only 2% of light. It can be used as a non-reflective covering for solar cells. This helps solar panels absorb much more energy.

The field of nanotechnology is progressing at breakneck speed. It is being incorporated into areas as diverse as clothing, furniture, paint, and computer processors.

And as I show in the next section, research into nanotech is escalating.

So we can expect to hear a lot more about this fast-moving field in the coming years…

Big Money Is Flooding Into Nanotech

Globally, the nanotech market has taken off in recent years. As you can see from this chart, the overall nanotechnology market has nearly quintupled in value since 2010. In 2021, it was worth $85.4 billion.

And it’s growing rapidly. It could reach $289 billion by 2030, according to market research company Precedence Research. That’s an increase of roughly 240% from 2020.

One of the things that ensures growth in any market is continuous patent development.

Patents are often used by companies to show investors they have the exclusive rights to the product they’re developing. Defending this intellectual property (IP) with a patent is critical in the nascent nanotechnology industry.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is the most popular patent register worldwide. Most companies (U.S.-based and non-U.S.-based) register their patents there.

In 2021, a total of 23,750 nanotechnology-related patents were registered with the USPTO. This has been growing steadily in recent years, as you can see from this next chart…

[Forever Battery: The Best EV Stock as Solid-State Batteries Fuel a 1,500% Surge in EV Sales]

Most of these were registered by organizations in the U.S., China, South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan.

There is huge interest in nanotechnology from some of the tech industry’s biggest champions.

Leading the way are tech giants IBM, Samsung Electronics, and Intel. Combined, the three tech giants had 1,666 nanotech patents in 2019. This was up from a combined 556 patents between them at the start of the decade.

And the U.S. government is also investing heavily in this sector. In 2021, it spent about $1.7 billion on nanotech research & development (R&D) via its National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI). And it is poised to spend about $2 billion this year.

In fact, since its inception in 2001, the NNI has invested more than $30 billion in nanotech R&D. It has helped develop nanotech applications in areas as diverse as energy, aerospace, sporting goods, agriculture, vaccine development, and consumer electronics.

Public and private investment will drive this ground-breaking technology in the years to come. The nanotech megatrend will revolutionize multiple industries.

And it will create economic value worth trillions of dollars in the process.

How to Get in On This Revolutionary Trend

The best way to get exposure in your portfolio is to buy shares in nanotech-related companies. Unfortunately, many such companies are small, private, and have little-to-no revenue.

So even if you can find any to invest in, they come with a degree of risk only suitable to those with a taste for the higher-stakes table.

A somewhat less risky way would be to buy shares of ProShares Nanotechnology ETF (TINY).

It’s a straightforward investment you can access in your regular brokerage account. As an exchange-traded fund (ETF), it also carries less company-specific risk than investing in individual companies.

But with just $2.7 million of assets under management, it’s tiny. This means there will be considerably lower trading volume than you might see in other ETFs in your portfolio. And because the ETF is so small, you’ll likely have to stomach some volatility.

If this isn’t your cup of tea, you can consider investing in a company like IBM (IBM). It’s a blue-chip technology company with stable profits.

It has invested significant resources in innovation to position itself as a leader in nanotech.

Happy investing, and I’ll be in touch again soon.

[Revealed]: The Secret Tech That Makes Elon Musk’s Smart City a Reality

April 8, 2021 By admin Leave a Comment

Earlier this year, for the first time ever, New York City’s beloved Empire State Building became a smart-energy skyscraper that is now 100% powered by wind.

Last summer in Chattanooga, city officials completed the installation of its Ultra Smart Streetlight system, created by Global Green Lighting. The system uses a technology called the FlexNet lighting control system to monitor and control 350 energy-efficient LED fixtures along a 35-mile grid. The new system promises to provide a safer environment for residents walking at night while also reducing the city's carbon footprint.

As reported by Mashable, Don Lepard, the president of Global Green Lighting, states:

The lights are programmed to operate at 50% during park hours, then turned up to 100% when the park is closed at 11:00 p.m. Then they are dimmed back down to 50% and turned off after 12:00 p.m..

In Denver, Panasonic is teaming up with city planners to build Peña Station NEXT — “a 400-acre, transit-oriented development destined to become America’s next great smart, sustainable mixed-use community,” according to the project press release.

The press release continues:

Smart city solutions being deployed at Peña Station NEXT will include an innovative solar-plus-storage microgrid, smart LED streetlights with video analytics… community Wi-Fi, electric vehicle charging stations, and autonomous electric shuttles.

In short, the goal is seamless mobility and sustainability.

And the U.S. isn’t the only place where cities and towns are changing. Europe and Asia are making impressive strides in smart-city design as well.

A Global Phenomenon

Amsterdam, the Netherlands' capital city, was one of the earliest adopters of smart-city initiatives. In 2016, the city won the European Capital of Innovation Award. In 2017, the Netherlands ranked third in the Global Innovation Index.

Moreover, London, Milan, Lisbon, Bordeaux, Burgas, and Warsaw are also helping lead the way in smart-city development. The joint Sharing Cities program is a major international smart-cities project that addresses some of the most pressing urban challenges cities face today. This includes energy use, carbon emissions, and data management projects. The fellowship brings together 34 partners from across government, industry, and academia to create harmonious solutions.

Not to be outdone, China has over 200 smart-city projects already in various stages of planning and development. Singapore is another nation investing heavily in smart-city technology.

Most recently, Toyota Motor Corporation announced it has started construction on a 175-acre smart city at the base of Japan's Mount Fuji, roughly 60 miles outside Tokyo.

Toyota’s “Woven City” is expected to function as a testing ground for technologies like robotics, smart homes, and artificial intelligence. A starting population of about 360 inventors, senior citizens, and young families will test and develop new smart-city technologies.

Toyota describes the city as a “living laboratory.

The eventual plan is for the city to house a population of more than 2,000 Toyota employees and their families, retired couples, entrepreneurs, and scientists.

Danish architect Bjarke Ingels, designer of Google's headquarters in California, is tasked with planning the layout of the city. In describing its plans, Toyota states streets in Woven City will be designated for three types of use — one for self-driving vehicles, one for personal transporters like bikes, and one for pedestrians only. To minimize the carbon footprint, homes will be built from wood and use sensor-based AI to monitor for emergencies and the occupants’ general well-being. Construction on the city began last month.

[Revolutionary: New Battery Tech Expected to Create an Energy Market Surge of 20,300%]

Most importantly, there’s a flood of investment capital moving into this industry and the ones making smart cities happen. And these will offer early movers fantastic returns as smart cities move into the mainstream.

How to Cash in on the Smart City Trend

According to GlobeNewswire, “The global smart-cities market size is expected to grow from $410.8 billion in 2020 to $820.7 billion by 2025, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.8%.”

There are numerous factors driving this growth, such as government initiatives for overpopulation and urbanization, resource management, etc. With the emergence of AI, IoT, 5G, and other technologies, we’re now seeing an uptick in smart-city development across the globe.

At least $3.7 trillion per year in infrastructure investment will be needed from now until 2035 to support the expected growth of these cities, according to McKinsey data.

That’s a lot of money to spread around and as you would expect, the world’s leading tech investors are already claiming their stakes in this new, highly profitable space.

Arizona’s Belmont project is controlled by the real estate group Belmont Partners, which in turn is controlled by Bill Gates’ Cascade Investment LLC.

Coincidence? I think not…

Peter Thiel is also a smart-city investor. The well-known tech visionary is a major backer of the Seasteading Institute, a nonprofit looking to build smart cities in French Polynesia.

And, of course, Elon Musk has his hand in the cookie jar too.

The eccentric billionaire is already developing a smart city outside of Melbourne, Australia. The new city will feature futuristic homes with rooftop solar systems, battery storage units, and electric charging ports for EVs.

Of course, building our own smart cities for the chance at ridiculous profits like Bill Gates, Peter Thiel, and Elon Musk is out of the question for normal folks like us.

[Breakthrough: Ride Energy Market From a $250 Billion Niche Into a $51 TRILLION Industry]

But that doesn’t mean we can't still be first movers on this trend and pull in huge gains like they will.

Behind every new smart city that will ever be created is one underlying technology — and it’s this technology that will allow you to score massive returns on disruptive trends like smart cities.

Kevin Kelly, founding editor of WIRED, predicts:

Whoever dominates [this new technology] will become among the wealthiest and most powerful people and companies in history…

The best part is you can invest in the one technology that makes all this possible right now.

The Future is Electric: Why EV Stocks Could Continue To Soar In 2021

April 8, 2021 By admin Leave a Comment

And it could happen much sooner than most people realize, as some of the biggest names are already hopping on board.

Amazon has already started making deliveries with electric vans in Los Angeles, as they’ve agreed to purchase 100,000 vans from EV startup, Rivian.

The United States Postal Service just signed a 10-year, multi-billion dollar contract with Oshkosh Defense to produce thousands of electric mail trucks.

And United Airlines just placed an incredible $1 billion order with EV manufacturer, Archer, for a fleet of electric air taxis.

Legacy automakers are all making the shift too, rolling out their line of electric vehicles one by one.

Ford is set to double their investment in EVs to $22 billion, and they’re planning to release their electric version of the Mustang and the F-150, the most popular vehicle in the U.S.

Volkswagen is calling their 2021 electric crossover, the ID.4, “the most important new Volkswagen debut since the Beetle.”

And General Motors has even announced they’ll stop making gas-powered vehicles altogether by 2035.

Now, Biden has even announced plans to transition all government fleet vehicles to EVs.

This electric revolution has already led to monster gains for EV companies throughout 2020.

The EV van startup, Workhorse, saw gains of over 551%…

Tesla’s shares shot up a massive 740%…

And Blink Charging soared for incredible 1,740% gains last year.

Now, many investors are looking ahead for the next big thing in the EV markets.

And one Canadian company in EV related business has seen its momentum building steadily over the last year.

Facedrive (TSXV:FD, OTC:FDVRF) has been acquiring key pieces left and right, adding them to their electric ecosystem alongside their signature ridesharing service.

With these acquisitions, they’ve brought the EV boom into food delivery, car subscriptions, and more.

This is why they’ve seen shares jump an incredible 969% over the last year…

And now that Facedrive has announced a major government investment in their technology, their business could be set to take off in 2021.

Here are 3 reasons why you should be paying attention to Facedrive:

1 – Bringing EVs to the Gig Economy

Many of the biggest EV stories of late have come from either the automakers rolling out new models or companies working on building out the infrastructure…

But Facedrive is taking a different approach.

Instead, they’re using the cars those automakers have already made and turning them into an entire EV-related ecosystem.

So just like Uber has built their $96 billion business off leveraging cars they never manufactured, bought, or sold…

Facedrive (TSXV:FD, OTC:FDVRF) connects customers looking to hail a ride, providing an eco-friendly solution.

Their model is simple.

When customers request a ride, they get their pick between riding to their destination in a standard gas-powered car, a hybrid or an electric vehicle (for no extra charge to them).

Then Facedrive’s algorithm crunches the numbers, setting aside a portion of the fare to plant trees, offsetting the carbon footprint from the ride.

Through next-gen technology and partnerships, they’re bringing EVs into the gig economy and making a splash.

That’s because Facedrive has also added a food delivery service, which has taken off since so many have been stuck at home during global lockdowns.

Today, they’re delivering over 4,100 orders per day on average. And after growing to 19 major cities, they plan to expand to more cities throughout the U.S. and Canada soon.

But they’ve also gone beyond applying EVs to the gig economy and are offering a way for people to get behind the wheel themselves without the usual sticker shock.

2 – Reinventing The Standard Model

At this point there’s no question there’s a growing demand for EVs from consumers, as this trend has spread from Europe and Asia and through North America.

And almost 3 out of 4 younger buyers even say they’re willing to pay higher prices to own an electric vehicle.

But with Facedrive’s acquisition of Steer, you can get the benefits without the large upfront cost.

Facedrive recently acquired the EV subscription company from the largest clean energy producer in the United States, and they’re aiming to change the way people think about using EVs.

Steer has combined the Netflix subscription model with the EV boom to flip the traditional car ownership model on its head.

With Facedrive’s acquisition of Steer, customers pay a simple monthly fee like with Netflix, and they get access to their choice of EVs from a fleet at their disposal.

So they can borrow one whenever they need it instead of buying an EV outright – and at a fraction of the cost.

They’re up and running in the Washington D.C. market already…

And they’ve seen so much success there that they’ve decided to expand further north, to roll out the service in Toronto as well.

With two of the largest metro areas in North America in the mix, Facedrive has started paving the path for a completely unique way to save drivers money in the EV boom.

But their biggest announcement recently came thanks to their willingness to think outside the box and serve the most pressing need we’re seeing today.

3 – Taking On The Biggest Challenges

While Facedrive (TSXV:FD, OTC:FDVRF) has been busy helping bring EVs to mainstream use in creative ways, they’ve also found a way to help address the issue we’ve all been facing for the last year.

By partnering with the University of Waterloo, they’ve created a wearable contact tracing technology called TraceSCAN.

It’s designed to help alert those without cell phones after they’ve been in contact with someone who’s tested positive for COVID-19.

That’s great news for those working in schools, airports, mining, long-term care facilities, and more.

And the demand for TraceSCAN has surged in recent months, as businesses work to open safely and responsibly.

Facedrive has now signed an agreement with Canada’s largest airline, Air Canada, to use this breakthrough technology.

They’re also in discussions to continue TraceSCAN’s growth with major multinational corporations.

But perhaps the most exciting news came from a government announcement in Canada just weeks ago.

In February, the Ontario government announced they’re investing $2.5 million to help speed up the deployment of TraceSCAN to more users.

This means TraceSCAN’s technology has gotten another vote of confidence in their innovative technology… to the tune of millions from the government.

As governments and businesses around the world are doing whatever they can to stop the spread of the virus, this major announcement could help bring attention to Facedrive’s TraceSCAN technology…

Applying more pressure to other organizations and governments to act responsibly and start investing more seriously in contact tracing technology.

Setting Up For Electric Everything in 2021

As 2021 heats up, we’re seeing that the EV boom isn’t just limited to manufacturing sedans anymore.

It involves building an entire electric ecosystem and re-imagining what transportation looks like on all fronts.

That’s why Facedrive (TSXV:FD, OTC:FDVRF) aims see their growth wave continue as they bring EVs to ridesharing, food delivery, and beyond.

[Breakthrough: Ride Energy Market From a $250 Billion Niche Into a $51 TRILLION Industry]

Here are a few other companies who could profit in the electric future:

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) has been one of the most exciting stories on Wall Street for the past two years. And that’s largely thanks to its CEO, Elon Musk. As a visionary in the tech world, Musk built his empire on PayPal and then pivoted to a cause closer to his heart, Tesla. Musk has had his eye on prize long before the green energy hype started building. In fact, he released the first Tesla Roadster back in 2008, making electric vehicles desirable when people were laughing at first-gen electric vehicles. Since then, Tesla’s stock has skyrocketed by over 14,000%. Largely thanks to its ambitious approach to a greener tomorrow

Tesla isn’t just about cars, however, it’s diving head first into the battery market, as well. And by extension, could completely transform renewable energy as we know it. Tesla’s battery technology is a game-changer because batteries will be the first big step towards decentralized electric grids, another innovation fueled by the dramatic rise of blockchain technology, another cause that Musk is passionate about.

Elon Musk is a major proponent of bitcoin, like his tech industry peer Square and Twitter’s Jack Dorsey. Musk made a number of posts on Dorsey’s Twitter platform highlighting the benefits of cryptocurrency, and even put his own money where his mouth is, announcing that Tesla would be investing $1.5 billion into bitcoin, with plans to begin accepting bitcoin payments for Tesla products in the near to medium-term

Elon Musk is truly a visionary of this decade. From his electric vehicle innovations and space ambitions to his forward-thinking approach on cryptocurrencies, Elon Musk may well become the first trillionaire, and Tesla shareholders are set to ride the wave.

NIO Limited (NYSE:NIO) has had an incredible year, taking the market by storm. Just a year ago, no one could have imagined how successful the company was going to be. In fact, many analysts were ready to leave it for dead. But the Chinese Tesla rival powered on, blew away estimates, and most importantly, kept its balance sheet in line. And it’s paid off. In a big way.

Nio has made all the right moves over the past year to win over investors and turn heads on the streets and in the marketplace. On November 18^th, NIO revealed a pair of sedans that even the biggest Tesla die-hard would struggle to pass up. The vehicles, meant to compete with Tesla’s Model 3, could be just what the company needs to pull back control of its local market from Elon Musk’s electric vehicle giant.

In addition to its automotive push, however, Nio, Tesla’s largest competitor in China, has also started to offer a batteries-as-a-service concept, in which car buyers can ‘lease’ the battery of their vehicle and save as much as $10,000 on the price of a new vehicle, while also offering buyers the option to swap batteries after a few years of use. And that’s huge news in the lithium world, because it will mean give miners even greater incentive to sign deals with the battery innovator.

General Motors (NYSE:GM) just started a joint venture with Korea’s LG Chem to mass produce next-gen battery cells for electric vehicles, together investing $2.3 billion over the next few years.

That’s not all its working on, either. In October, auto industry legend, GM announced that it’s majority-owned subsidiary, Cruise, has just received approval from the California DMV to test its autonomous vehicles without a driver. And while they’re not the first to receive such an approval, it’s still huge news for GM.

Cruise CEO Dan Ammann wrote in a Medium post, “Before the end of the year, we’ll be sending cars out onto the streets of SF — without gasoline and without anyone at the wheel. Because safely removing the driver is the true benchmark of a self-driving car, and because burning fossil fuels is no way to build the future of transportation.”

Ford (NYSE:F) is another Detroit automaker making the jump to EVs – and seeing shares jump in the process. They recently announced they’ll be boosting their spending on EVs to $27 billion through mid-decade. That big investment includes plans of their own to develop an electric cargo van and a plug-in version of their bestseller F-150 pickup truck.

Ford isn’t going to be left out of the autonomous vehicle boom, either. The company, for its part, has recently revealed plans to launch its self-driving business in 2022. The new vehicles, in partnership with Argo AI, a Philadelphia-based autonomous vehicle startup, will include major upgrades from advanced Lidar technology and high resolution cameras. Ford plans to test these vehicles in Austin, Texas; Detroit; Miami; Palo Alto, California; Pittsburgh and Washington, D.C. as early as this month.

John Davis, chief engineer of Ford’s autonomous vehicle subsidiary explained, “We’re confident that we’re on the path to launching a safe, reliable and affordable service. And, we look forward to telling you more about how this service will ultimately help make people’s lives better.”

Blink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK) was one of the darlings of the EV boom last year because of its expansion in EV charging technology. With their chargers deployed at airports, car dealers, hospitals, restaurants, retailers, and schools across the nation, Blink recently saw shares jump 76% in just one month. A wave of new deals, including a collaboration with EnerSys and another with Envoy Technologies to deploy electric vehicles and charging stations adds further support to its success.

Michael D. Farkas, Founder, CEO and Executive Chairman of Blink noted, “This is an exciting collaboration with EnerSys because it combines the industry-leading technologies of our two companies to provide user-friendly, high powered, next-generation charging alternatives. We are continuously innovating our product offerings to provide more efficient and convenient charging options to the growing community of EV drivers.”

In addition to the company’s string of high-profile deals, Blink is also consistently posting promising revenues. In fact, earlier this month, the company noted that third-quarter revenue had increased by as much as 18% from the year before despite disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Canada is not likely to be left out of this boom, either. GreenPower Motor (TSX:GPV) is an exciting company that produces larger-scale electric transportation. Right now, it is primarily focused on the North American market, but the sky is the limit as the pressure to go green grows. GreenPower has been on the frontlines of the electric movement, manufacturing affordable battery-electric busses and trucks for over ten years. From school busses to long-distance public transit, GreenPower’s impact on the sector can’t be ignored.

NFI Group (TSX:NFI) is another one of Canada’s most exciting companies in the electric vehicle space. It produces transit busses and motorcycles. NFI had a difficult start to the year, but it since cut its debt and begun to address its cash flow struggles in a meaningful way. Though it remains down from January highs, NFI still offers investors a promising opportunity to capitalize on the electric vehicle boom.

Recently, NFI has seen an uptick in insider stock purchases which is often a sign that the board and management strongly believe in the future of the company. In addition to its increasingly positive financial reports, it is also one of the few in the business that actually pay dividends out to its investors.

Lithium Americas Corp. (TSX:LAC) is one of North America’s most important and successful pure-play lithium companies. In a way, Lithium Americas is literally fueling the green energy boom. With two world-class lithium projects in Argentina and Nevada, Lithium Americas is well-positioned to ride the wave of growing lithium demand in the years to come. It’s already raised nearly a billion dollars in equity and debt, showing that investors have a ton of interest in the company’s ambitious plans, and it will likely continue its promising growth and expansion for years to come.

It’s not ignoring the growing demand from investors for responsible and sustainable mining, either. In fact, one of its primary goals is to create a positive impact on society and the environment through its projects. This includes cleaner mining tech, strong workplace safety practices, a range of opportunities for employees, and strong relationships with local governments to ensure that not only are its employees being taken care of, but locals as well.

Celestica (TSX:CLS) is closely tied to the green energy boom. Celestica’s wide range of products includes but is not limited to communications solutions, enterprise and cloud services, aerospace and defense products, renewable energy and enough health technology.

Thanks to its exposure to the renewable energy market, Celestica’s future is tied hand-in-hand with the green energy boom that’s sweeping the world at the moment. It helps build smart and efficient products that integrate the latest in power generation, conversion and management technology to deliver smarter, more efficient grid and off-grid applications for the world’s leading energy equipment manufacturers and developers.

Maxar Technologies (TSX:MAXR) is a high-flying tech stock to watch in the energy transition. Why? Its wholly-owned subsidiary, SSL, a designer and manufacturer of satellites used by government and commercial enterprises, has pioneered research in electric propulsion systems, lithium-ion power systems, and the use of advanced composites on commercial satellites. These innovations are key because they allow satellites to spend more time in orbit, reducing costs and increasing efficiency. And it’s greener than traditional power sources.

Thanks to Maxar’s incredible tech and innovative approach to the already-extremely complicated space industry, the company has seen its share price climb where many of its peers have struggled. In fact, in just the past two years, Maxar has seen its share price increase by well over 1000%. And as the company secures more deals in the great beyond, the innovative firm will likely maintain its upward trajectory for some time.

Everything You Need To Know About Musk’s New Passion Project

April 7, 2021 By admin Leave a Comment

Elon Musk is nothing if not divisive. But if there’s one thing about the world’s richest man that people tend to agree on, it’s that he’s good at picking winners.

So when the Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and SpaceX founder announced – via tweet, naturally – that he would contribute $100m to the best carbon capture and storage (CCS) invention, people paid attention.

Musk’s seal of approval could be just the thing the technology needs to blast it into the stratosphere (well, look at Gamestop), and according to energy experts, it’s not before time.

Am donating $100M towards a prize for best carbon capture technology— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) January 21, 2021

Although various methods of removing carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere have grown in popularity in recent years, such solutions still lag behind other climate change technologies like wind and solar power.

Dr. David Joffe, a member of the Climate Change Committee, the government’s chief climate advisers, told City A.M.: “CCS is an essential part of getting to the net-zero target which we’ve recommended, but we haven’t seen the progress over the last 10-15 years that we think we should have.”

But what exactly is CCS, and why is it so important to efforts to prevent climate change?

How does it work?

Really, CCS refers to a process rather than a particular technology – it’s what trees do as part of their life cycle.

But with the newfound attention on reducing carbon emissions, humans have come up with ways to imitate this process.

At the moment, there are three main “bundles” of CCS solutions, as Aniruddha Sharma, chief executive of Carbon Clean explains.

The first of these, and most common, is post-combustion, which uses chemicals to trap the carbon dioxide produced by burning fossil fuels.

[Exclusive: Watch Demo of Elon Musk’s Next Big Project]

Then there is pre-combustion, which sees the fuel turned into carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The carbon is reacted with water to make carbon dioxide, which is then trapped.

Finally, “oxyfuel” carbon capture involves burning the fuel in pure oxygen. Doing this produces carbon dioxide and water vapor, or which the former is then trapped and piped away.

But why do we need all these methods? It’s a case of horses for courses, says Sharma, whose company operates 40 CCS projects across Europe and India. “Different situations need different solutions. If you’re running a coal power plant, for example, post-combustion chemical capture is best, because the emissions are so dirty.”

What’s the need?

But with more and more renewable energy sources being brought online every year, some have questioned the need for the technology.

According to Joffe, there are two main reasons why CCS is so important. First, as he explains, renewable energy sources are currently extremely variable, meaning that if the sun doesn’t shine or the wind doesn’t blow, no power is produced.

Although the CCC estimates that by 2050 80 percent of the UK’s power will be run off renewables, something will still be needed to fill the gap – like a gas power plant with CCS technology attached.

[Revealed: This Tech Expert Finally Found the Company that’s Behind Elon's New Project]

Secondly, there are some industries where experts think that it won’t be possible to remove emissions altogether – like the making of cement, for example, which creates carbon dioxide even though it doesn’t involve the use of fossil fuels.

“These kind of solutions are just for the margins, where without them we cannot make progress in decarbonisation”, Joffe said

“There are areas such as agriculture or aviation where realistically we are not going to get to net-zero so we have to balance those negative emissions with removals from the atmosphere”, he said.

“Some of those can be land-based, like growing trees, but there’s a limit to our land base, so some will require other human CCS solutions.”

Where have we got to so far?

Given the rapid growth in renewables over the last decade, it may come as a surprise that CCS development is currently lagging behind booming industries such as wind power.

As usual, the reason for the lack of progress comes down to money, says Joffe.

[Breakthrough: This trend is BIGGER than Blockchain, Ai, 5G, Robotics, and the IoT COMBINED!]

“CCS is never going to be cheaper than not doing it. If you add it to a fossil fuel power plant you have to add equipment, build infrastructure and supply energy, and that all adds to cost. It’s not like wind power or electric cars, where you replace the fuel source altogether.

“The climate polity hasn’t taken those options seriously which just tackle climate change. Tackling technologies which make fossil fuels more expensive has not been done nearly as well”, he added.

After a false start in the middle of the 2010s, the technology now seems to be firmly back on the government’s radar, however.

In December’s energy white paper, ministers increased their investment into CCS from £800m to £1bn over the next five years, with plans to deploy the technology across four industrial clusters by the end of the decade.

It is hoped that the fledgling industry could employ as many as 50,000 people within the same timeframe.

Crucially, this time around the government has separated funding for the technology from funding for infrastructure, which should help avoid the disappointment of previous competitions for investing in the technology, as Sharma explains.

“Back in 2014, the funding competition didn’t work and that had an impact on the investors and their willingness to deploy capital. So if we can avoid that this time goes full throttle all the way to the end it would be great.”

Environmental concerns ‘overblown’

Both Joffe and Sharma also have short shrift for the environmental arguments cited as reasons not to be hasty for deploying the technology.

Some argue that the impact of storing carbon dioxide is not yet fully known, but Joffe disagrees:

“On the whole those concerns are overblown. If we believe that 99 percent of carbon we store underground will remain trapped there for 200 years, the extra benefit is going to be hundreds of times bigger than if one percent escapes”, he said.

And Sharma pointed out that Norwegian oil giant Equinor has been storing 1m tonnes of carbon dioxide under the North Sea for decades without any recorded impact.

Then there is the question of the energy required to capture the carbon dioxide in the first place, which some argue renders the technology futile.

Again, Sharma disputes this logic. “Let’s say if you are trying to capture 95kg of CO2 out of 100kg that’s going out. The carbon emissions of the energy required to capture that would range anywhere between 10kg to 15kg, so you are still catching over 80 percent of the emissions overall.”

Both agree that without the technology, the attempt to transition to a net-zero economy will be much more difficult.

As Sharma says: “I see CCS as a bridge between now and when 100 percent of the industry can run on renewables. But for that, we’ll need new ways of making steel, cement, and chemicals. So right now we need that bridge.”

Widespread Semitruck Electrification Is Coming

April 7, 2021 By admin Leave a Comment

Dublin, Virginia, is a quiet little town in the southwest corner of the state. Most people have probably never heard of it.

But many long-haul truck drivers know it as the home of Volvo Trucks’ New River Valley Plant. Sitting on 300 acres, it’s the company’s largest truck assembly plant.

The 1.6 million-square-foot plant makes all the different Volvo class 7 and class 8 truck models sold in North America. And now it’s developing a brand-new model.

Volvo’s Sticker Shock

Volvo Trucks, a subsidiary of Volvo (STO: VOLV-A), is joining Tesla (Nasdaq: TSLA), Kenworth Trucks, Nikola (Nasdaq: NKLA) and Daimler (OTC: DDAIF) in designing electric semitrucks for long- and short-haul routes.

So far, Volvo has completed a pilot build of 70 VNR series electric semitrucks. It’s leasing them to several delivery fleets in Southern California.

But, like every other electric semitruck maker, Volvo has a problem: sticker shock.

Electric semitrucks and buses cost a lot more upfront than their diesel counterparts. But electric trucks and buses have a much lower total cost of ownership.

For instance, maintenance estimates for electric semitrucks are 25% lower than they are for diesel-powered ones. There are far fewer moving parts in electric trucks.

And electric semitrucks are easily recharged at freight stations. Charging can be done in the middle of the night, when electric rates are cheapest.

[Discover: The New Type of Battery That’s Pushing Energy Storage to the Limits]

Volvo plans to collect data for a year or two to prove the truck’s total cost of ownership is lower. It will then use that data to fine-tune the VNR series trucks for volume production and manufacturing cost reductions.

Volvo Trucks’ electrification story is in its early stages. And that’s true for other big electric semitruck makers too.

Semi Makers Are Moving in the Same Direction

The market for electric trucks is still small. However, that’s quickly going to change.

Last October, Kenworth announced its first electric class 8 truck, the T680E. Production starts this year.

It has an operating range of 150 miles and a top speed of 70 mph. It’s perfect for local pickup and delivery applications.

Tesla isn’t making its Semi in volume yet. It’s barely making enough battery cells for its electric vehicles and energy storage products.

Its Semi uses so many cells that it would take up a big portion of Tesla’s cell-making capacity. But Tesla is building new Gigafactories in Texas and Germany that will be able to turn out more cells.

[Learn More: Insiders Say it Will Enable Drivers to Go 1,000 Miles on a Single Charge]

Additionally, 300 fleet managers completed a survey last May. More than 90% said that electrification was the “inevitable future of commercial fleets.”

And company shareholders are driving the demand for electric class 7 and class 8 trucks. Many of the largest freight companies are publicly held. And most have announced environmental, social, and corporate governance goals under pressure from shareholders.

The only way to meet those goals is to go all-electric. The faster they can move away from fossil fuels, the better.

This year is going to be pivotal for class 7 and class 8 electric trucks. This will be the year that they go from demonstration to initial deployments.

Fleet owners are just starting to realize how much lower the total cost of ownership is for electric semis. So orders are starting to flow in.

I think it’s the perfect time to invest in this subsector of EVs. Investors who want exposure to the electric semitruck market may want to consider jumping in now.
