Top 5 Electric Vehicle And Energy Storage Metal Companies To Consider

This article first appeared on trend Investment in February. 14, 2019;
So all the data is up to that date.
The two biggest trends in the next decade are the rise of electric vehicles (EVs)
And energy storage (ES).
At present, the growth rate of electric vehicles is about 70% pa, and the growth rate of ES is about 100% pa.
Investors who want to buy several key EV and ES metals such as lithium, cobalt and rare earth (neodymium)
Graphite, nickel, copper and vanadium, and then the following companies are all perfect for them as they all offer access to several key metals.
When choosing the top five EV and ES metals companies, I considered those companies that have multiple metal production (or resources)
, Ideally, focus on the metal that is most affected (See below).
Rare earth mainly includes nd (Nd)
Because of its role in many electric vehicle magnets.
Note that vanadium may play a key role in large-scale commercial energy storage and therefore is included.

Cars have more nickel and less cobalt. 1)Glencore [LSX:GLEN][HK:805](OTCPK:GLCNF)-
The price = EV and ES metal is £ 298 and Glencore offers a large amount of cobalt, nickel, copper and vanadium.
So far, Glencore is number one in the world.
One cobalt producer of their DRC mine.
They are currently experiencing a reversal of DRC royalties and tax increases, as well as the issue of cobalt sales in the Katanga Mining industry [1]TSX:KAT](OTCPK:KATFF)(
Glencore has 86.
Katanga Mining 33%).
Glencore is also a very large producer of copper, nickel and large vanadium.
The main source of revenue for Glencore includes copper, its trading department (
Including cobalt as a by-productproduct)and coal.
The following figure shows the distribution of Glencore\'s income, pointing out that Glencore plans to expand investment in nickel production ~ $ 1b to find more nickel under Craig mine in Sudbury Onaping, Canada

2019 net profit margin forecast in 2. 48%.
At present, analysts agree that the price target is 372, up 25%.
The risk lies in their DRC exposure, and the benefits they bring to the heavy exposure of key EV and ES metals. 2)
NV advanced metallurgy Group 【NA:AMG][GR:ADG](OTCPK:AMVMF)-
Price = 30 euro.
From EV and ES metals, AMG provides exposure to vanadium, lithium and graphite.

Glencore cocoa is exposed to cobalt, copper, nickel and vanadium, but all DRC issues must be addressed.
The AMG has access to vanadium, lithium and graphite.
Cobalt27 is mainly exposed to cobalt, a large amount of nickel and a small amount of lithium.
Norilsk Nickel is exposed to nickel, copper and cobalt;

Recycling potential of ion batteries.
Umicore and Sumitomo Metal Mining, the top two cathode producers, are also great ways to get in touch with electric cars and the ES boom indirectly.
Overall, I like them given the extensive exposure of all of the above companies to electric cars and ES metals.
My only problem is that it is difficult to find a lithium producer that also has other electric vehicle metals, which is one of the reasons why Neometals and AMG are on the list.
The Cobalt27 is now also moving in the direction of lithium and has taken the lead in cobalt and nickel.
Finally, the battery metal etf also offers a wider range of investment opportunities, with BATT being the most diverse.
I am happy to hear any other name with extensive EV and ES metal exposure.
All comments are welcome as usual.

What is the difference between a PCS and an inverter?

In energy storage and renewable energy systems, PCS (power conversion system) and inverters are two core devices that are frequently mentioned yet often confused. Many people may not fully understand the functional differences, operating principles, or even the application scenarios of these two devices. In fact, while PCS and inverters share close technical connections, they also have fundamental differences.
What is PCS energy storage converter

In the process of accelerating the achievement of carbon neutrality goals and building a new power system, energy storage technology is gradually becoming one of the key technologies supporting the stable operation of the new power system and optimizing resource allocation. Among these, the PCS (Power Conversion System) energy storage converter, as the core equipment of the energy storage system, directly impacts the overall efficiency and stability of the energy storage system through its performance and application. This paper will conduct an in-depth analysis and interpretation of PCS energy storage inverters from aspects such as their definition, working principles, main characteristics, operating modes, application scenarios, and future development trends.

What is Commercial and Industrial Energy Storage?

Commercial and industrial energy storage systems (C&I ESS) refer to large-scale battery solutions designed to store electricity for businesses, manufacturing plants, and commercial buildings. These systems typically use lithium-ion battery technologies and are housed in energy storage containers or custom-designed battery enclosures, optimized for different industrial and commercial energy loads.



These energy storage systems allow businesses to store surplus energy from solar panels or the grid, then discharge it when needed, especially during peak demand times, thus enhancing operational efficiency and reducing energy costs.
What is BESS?  A Comprehensive Overview of Battery Energy Storage Systems
What is BESS?A Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is a cutting-edge technology that plays a vital role in the global transition to clean energy. It stores electricity generated from renewable sources like solar and wind and releases it when demand peaks, during outages, or when electricity prices are high. Offering stability, efficiency, and energy independence, BESS has become a critical component in residential, commercial, and utility-scale power solutions.
Who are the suppliers of BESS systems?

As the global energy transition accelerates, battery energy storage systems (BESS) have become a critical component of modern energy infrastructure. BESS systems can store electricity generated from renewable sources such as solar and wind power, and release energy during peak grid load periods, thereby enhancing grid stability, supporting energy independence, and reducing electricity costs.
