Capstone Green Energy (NASDAQ:CGRN) Continues Market Penetration In Latin America With First District Cooling Application For Llanogas

 

The Microturbine Enclosure Will Be Sized to Accommodate Future Expansion

VAN NUYS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / October 20, 2021 / Capstone Green Energy Corporation (www.CapstoneGreenEnergy.com) (NASDAQ:CGRN) (“Capstone” or the “Company”), a global leader in carbon reduction and on-site resilient green energy solutions, announced today that Supernova Energy Services (www.supernova-es.com), Capstone’s exclusive distributor for Colombia and Venezuela, secured an order for a three-bay C400 Signature Series microturbine to be installed in a cogeneration application and supply electricity and cooling for Llanogas, a leading natural gas utility company in Colombia.

The success and demonstrated benefits of a pilot project at Llanogas’ headquarters in Villacencio, Meta, Colombia led officials to install a three-bay natural-gas fueled C400S microturbine package at a nearby office complex located near El Barzal. The system is the first district cooling application in the country. In this application, cold water is produced in a centralized location for distribution to buildings like offices and factories through a network of insulated underground pipes. District cooling offers a modern, efficient way to air condition a network of buildings in cities or complexes and contribute to improving a reliable energy infrastructure.

“Carbon reduction practices are evolving in exciting new ways, and energy efficiency strategies are evolving with them,” said Darren Jamison, President and Chief Executive Officer of Capstone Green Energy. “Capstone solutions deliver essential power reliability and energy efficiency that energy dense customers require, which, in turn, improves their return on investment. At the same time, our systems lower their carbon footprint,” added Mr. Jamison.

Committed to the care and preservation of the environment, Llanogas officials actively sought a cogeneration solution that would offset their carbon footprint and maximize overall energy efficiency. Capstone’s innovative technology was selected for its scalability, resiliency, and ability to reduce energy costs while simultaneously reducing emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases.

“This will be an iconic project in the city of Villavicencio, it being the first dedicated office complex with the capacity to provide cooling for several adjacent buildings and trend setting technologically with the cooling water energy storage,” said Nestor Moseres, President of Supernova Energy Services.

About Gevo

Gevo’s mission is to transform renewable energy and carbon into energy-dense liquid hydrocarbons. These liquid hydrocarbons can be used for drop-in transportation fuels such as gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel fuel, that when burned have potential to yield net-zero greenhouse gas emissions when measured across the full lifecycle of the products. Gevo uses low-carbon renewable resource-based carbohydrates as raw materials, and is in an advanced state of developing renewable electricity and renewable natural gas for use in production processes, resulting in low-carbon fuels with substantially reduced carbon intensity (the level of greenhouse gas emissions compared to standard petroleum fossil-based fuels across their lifecycle). Gevo’s products perform as well or better than traditional fossil-based fuels in infrastructure and engines, but with substantially reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to addressing the problems of fuels, Gevo’s technology also enables certain plastics, such as polyester, to be made with more sustainable ingredients. Gevo’s ability to penetrate the growing low-carbon fuels market depends on the price of oil and the value of abating carbon emissions that would otherwise increase greenhouse gas emissions. Gevo believes that its proven, patented, technology enabling the use of a variety of low-carbon sustainable feedstocks to produce price-competitive low carbon products such as gasoline components, jet fuel, and diesel fuel yields the potential to generate project and corporate returns that justify the build-out of a multi-billion-dollar business.

Gevo believes that Argonne National Laboratory GREET model is the best available standard of scientific based measurement for life cycle inventory or LCI.

Exploration and Production Review and Outlook – Noble Capital Markets Energy Sector Review – Q3 2021

Noble Capital Markets Energy Sector Review – October 2021

ENERGY INDUSTRY OUTLOOK

Exploration and Production: 2021-3Q Review and Outlook

Energy Stocks Performance

Energy stocks, as measured by the XLE Energy Index, declined sharply in the first half of the quarter falling as much as 16%. The second half of the quarter was a different story with the index regaining lost ground and finishing within 0.04 points, or 0.01% of where it began. This is in direct contrast to the S&P 500 Index which rose steadily in July and August before giving back much of its outperformance in September and ending the quarter up a modest 0.85%

Oil Prices

As one might expect, the XLE Index largely mirrored oil prices. WTI oil prices began the quarter at $75.23/bbl., fell to as low as $62.32/bbl., and then shot up sharply to $75.88/bbl. Prices have surpassed peak levels reached in 2018. One would have to go back to 2014 to find higher oil prices. What’s more, oil prices show no signs of letting up. Drilling rig count has started to increase, but not at a level one would expect for this oil price level. Brent oil prices have also been strong and are close to crossing $80/bbl. The spread between Brent and WTI prices has widened but remain below the traditional spread of around $5/bbl. The WTI oil futures curve shows oil prices declining on the out months but staying above $74/bbl. through December.

High oil prices, combined with improved operating efficiencies mean that production companies are facing very favorable returns on their investment. We look for companies to start reporting strong positive cash flow and to use cash flow to increase drilling and improve balance sheets. We do not expect companies to raise dividend payments given the cyclical nature of recent oil price trends but would not rule out share repurchases if stock prices do not rebound further.

Natural Gas Prices

The rise in oil prices is impressive, but it pales in comparison to the jump in natural gas prices. Henry Hub gas prices rose 53% during the quarter and are now trading at a level of $5.619/mcf. One would have to go back to 2008 to find natural gas prices this high. Interestingly, the rise has come during the normally quiet summer months. The race to refill storage units that began in March has been negatively impacted by tepid drilling activity combined with high gas demand due to hot weather this summer. Natural gas future prices rise through the high-demand months of winter. The January contract, for example, trades at $5.85/mcf.

Longer-term energy trends

Energy sources in the United States are undergoing a significant transformation away from carbon-based fuels. While this should not be a surprise to anyone, it is worth taking a long-term view of energy consumption to highlight how the transformation has accelerated in recent years. Coal consumption has been replaced by renewable, nuclear, and natural gas. Worth noting, petroleum consumption, which grew dramatically in the last 50 years, has maintained the levels reached at the end of the century. We believe this trend will continue with petroleum providing a smaller portion of the overall energy picture, but not necessarily declining in absolute value.

Outlook 

The rebound in oil and natural gas prices came faster than expected and is staying higher than we would have expected. We have been adjusting our models to reflect higher prices but are maintaining our long-term oil price forecast of $50 per barrel and $2.50 per mcf. Energy companies should start reporting positive cash flow at these prices and increasing drilling budgets.

Our near-term outlook for energy stocks remains positive. Wells being drilled today at current prices are generating cash flow to repay drilling costs in a matter of months, not years. We expect companies to report favorable results for the next few quarters. Longer-term, we have concern that oil demand will be constrained by power generation competition from renewable energy and decreased demand for gasoline and diesel due to a growth in electric vehicles. At the same time, increased supply from OPEC and continued drilling productivity will eventually mean lower energy prices. However, the near-term returns are so favorable, we believe investors will be amply rewarded before such a time arrives. We recommend investor shift their attention to companies with active drilling programs and a plethora of drilling options.

About Gevo

Gevo’s mission is to transform renewable energy and carbon into energy-dense liquid hydrocarbons. These liquid hydrocarbons can be used for drop-in transportation fuels such as gasoline, jet fuel and diesel fuel, that when burned have potential to yield net-zero greenhouse gas emissions when measured across the full life cycle of the products. Gevo uses low-carbon renewable resource-based carbohydrates as raw materials, and is in an advanced state of developing renewable electricity and renewable natural gas for use in production processes, resulting in low-carbon fuels with substantially reduced carbon intensity (the level of greenhouse gas emissions compared to standard petroleum fossil-based fuels across their life cycle). Gevo’s products perform as well or better than traditional fossil-based fuels in infrastructure and engines, but with substantially reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to addressing the problems of fuels, Gevo’s technology also enables certain plastics, such as polyester, to be made with more sustainable ingredients. Gevo’s ability to penetrate the growing low-carbon fuels market depends on the price of oil and the value of abating carbon emissions that would otherwise increase greenhouse gas emissions. Gevo believes that its proven, patented technology enabling the use of a variety of low-carbon sustainable feedstocks to produce price-competitive low-carbon products such as gasoline components, jet fuel and diesel fuel yields the potential to generate project and corporate returns that justify the build-out of a multi-billion-dollar business.

Gevo believes that the Argonne National Laboratory GREET model is the best available standard of scientific-based measurement for life cycle inventory or LCI.

Release – Gevo and Axens Ink Alliance for Ethanol-to-Jet Technology and Sustainable Aviation Fuel Commercial Project Development


Gevo and Axens Ink Alliance for Ethanol-to-Jet Technology and Sustainable Aviation Fuel Commercial Project Development

 

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Oct. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ: GEVO) and Axens North America, Inc. (Axens) have entered into an agreement that establishes a strategic alliance aimed at accelerating the commercialization of sustainable ethanol-to-jet (ETJ) projects in the United States. As part of the alliance, Axens brings technologies with over 60 related patents; engineering packages; proprietary catalysts; and certain proprietary equipment required to convert ethanol into jet fuel. Axens would also provide process guarantees for commercial ETJ projects. Gevo expects to develop, own, and operate ETJ plants to produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), utilizing its expertise in renewable alcohol production and technologies; Net-Zero business model; project financing expertise; customer relationships, and contracts.

Axens has a long history of developing and commercializing best in class technology to convert olefins, such as ethylene, propylene, and butylene into hydrocarbon fuels and blend stocks such as gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel fuel:
 

  • > 60 commercial olefin oligomerization technology deployments
  • > 30 years of commercial operation
  • Leader in the field of homogeneous catalysis research recognized by the 2005 Nobel award Prize in chemistry to IFPEN’s Yves Chauvin
  • > 60 related patents across this technology chain
     

Instead of making olefins from petroleum, it is now possible to make them from ethanol and butanol, so the same commercially proven technologies can be deployed to make renewable hydrocarbon fuels.

“This agreement not only strengthens Axens’ existing relationship with Gevo that currently includes technology development and deployment in the isobutanol derived fuels, but reiterates Axens’ commitment to Gevo’s growth potential, while recognizing Axens’ innovative, commercially-proven, and differentiated technology bundle approach. Gevo’s approach makes it possible to decarbonize the ethanol supply chain and thus utilize technologies originally developed and well-proven for fossil-hydrocarbon production to produce renewable, drop-in fuels. Finally, we are convinced that Gevo’s breakthrough approach to scientifically tracking and accounting for carbon, emissions, and sustainability across the whole of the business system is a true differentiator that will enable growth of SAF production via carbohydrate derived alcohols,” said Jean Sentenac, Chief Executive Officer of Axens.

“Our customers want SAF and other low-carbon hydrocarbons sooner, rather than later. The collaboration between Gevo and Axens is expected to allow Gevo to rapidly partner with existing ethanol producers to deploy proven technologies at commercial scales consistent with the airline industry’s sustainability goals. We see that there is great potential to convert ethanol into SAF and other hydrocarbons. Additionally, there is synergy with Gevo proprietary isobutanol production technology that is expected to result in unique product blending synergies for producing low-carbon gasoline, SAF, and renewable diesel. We know from our work on the Net-Zero business model that it is possible to drive the fossil-based GHG and related emissions footprint very low or even negative while producing drop-in hydrocarbon fuels like SAF and we think the model can apply to ETJ too,” said Dr. Patrick R. Gruber, Chief Executive Officer of Gevo.

“Axens is a great partner. They have a lot of patents, expertise, and a track record of success with their technologies to convert olefins into hydrocarbons. In short, Axens de-risks the production technology. Gevo expects to build, own, and operate alcohol-to-jet plants alone or with partners. To any ethanol plant owners out there who want to change their game and get into Net-Zero type SAF and hydrocarbons, please give us a call,” continued Dr. Gruber.

Is Thorium, Not Uranium the Future of Power Generation?


Image Credit: Homeland Security Newswire

Chinese Thorium Power Plant May Challenge Nuclear Expectations

 

The nuclear energy industry has recently unveiled tremendous new potential and expects many more positive changes. From nuclear batteries, to natrium salt reactors, to modular units, the high output and low to no carbon appeal of nuclear has again put uranium fueled solutions at the forefront of many energy discussions. Investors are also finding different ways to benefit from the nuclear renaissance and increased fuel demand. Whether it be through investing in mining companies, derivative-based funds, or even physical delivery, there’s excitement and speculation around anticipated growth. But what if Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Eric Sprott and others are right about a nuclear future but wrong about what will fuel it?

One of the many nuclear variations being built and trialed is ready to go online. This plant may completely alter the expected course many now have for nuclear power — and it may not include uranium.

New Fuel, New Options

One typically doesn’t build a nuclear-fired power plant in the desert. Water used as a coolant has always been an important component. However, in a province called Wuwei in the Gobi Desert, the Chinese are in the testing stage of an experimental reactor. This nuclear reactor will use thorium as fuel. Thorium also needs a companion metal to react with; this could either be spent plutonium or uranium. The technology on which the plant was designed has been known since the sixties. China could soon be in the position to benefit from this abundant alternative fuel.

What is Thorium?

Thorium is a radioactive metal that presents itself naturally in rocks. At the moment, it isn’t used for much. However, thorium is a by-product of mining rare earth minerals. Mining rare earth minerals is being done across the globe with increased capacity to satisfy the world’s appetite for clean energy storage. This makes thorium increasingly available.

Compared to the cost, efficiency, and availability of uranium, thorium has some advantages. According to the Nobel Prize winner in Physics (1984), Carlo Rubbia, the comparison of the energy produced by one tonne of thorium fission would be equivalent to about 200 tonnes of uranium. Since 7 grams of uranium is equivalent to about one tonne of coal, one tonne of thorium would replace about 28 million tonnes of coal. The ability to reduce carbon-emitting coal use is only the beginning of the benefits foreseen.

One tonne of thorium is a sphere just shy of 22 inches in diameter. A smaller sphere of thorium the size of a tennis ball could electrify London’s nine million homes and businesses for a week. The earth’s thorium reserves could be expected to supply the planet’s energy needs for tens of thousands of years.

As far as contamination and waste, thorium plants have the potential to generate a much smaller amount of shorter-life radioactive waste than reactors now in use. The waste volume is estimated to be 1/35 for the same energy output. Because of a shorter half-life, of the spent thorium, compared to spent uranium, 99.99% of the waste would be stable in 300 years, rather than tens of thousands for U235.

About the Reactors

The process of the reactor is different than traditional power stations, so new plants from the ground up are needed to use thorium; they are not interchangeable. Much like the natrium reactor demonstration project to be built in Wyoming, the cooling process can be salt-based and therefore avoid the need to be near a body of water.  According to Nature.com, the Chinese reactor will use fluoride-based salts. These will melt into a transparent liquid when heated to around 840 degrees (Fahrenheit). This salt serves as the coolant as well as the storer of heat energy for the reactor core. It allows the reactors can be installed in isolated and dry areas.

The Chinese pilot reactor is the first thorium molten salt reactor to operate since 1969. At that time, U.S. scientists shut down the first thorium reactor at the Oak Ridge National Lab in Tennessee after the program was canceled. The Chinese plant copied the Oak Ridge design but improved by drawing on decades of innovation in manufacturing, materials, and instrumentation.

Take-Away

The future is never certain. Innovation, competition, and new discoveries disrupt trends. The new thorium plant may pave the way for co-existing technologies to generate energy from uranium and other mineral reactions, just as fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas) co-exist and pull the weight for today’s energy needs.

If successful, the new plant ushers in an era where, for the first time in human history, electricity generation can be counted on for tens of thousands of years. This would be bullish for the human race and worth watching.
