Bushveld Minerals pegs hopes on energy to drive vanadium demand

The Money Show’s Bruce Whitfield asks Bushveld Minerals founder Fortune Mojapelo to share his success story. London Stock Exchange-listed Bushveld Minerals is a low-cost, primary vanadium producer with a diversified vanadium product portfolio. The company plays a vital

The story of Avalon and redT has been ongoing throughout both 2019 and 2020, with the two companies announcing a merger in July 2019 that was set to see the companies create a “leading player” in energy

While Li-ion batteries have totally conquered the electric-vehicle industry, and currently dominating the energy storage sector as well, the redox flow batteries are silently (but not too much) taking their share of the stationary energy storage market.  Initially

Battery storage systems are emerging as one of the key solutions to effectively integrate high shares of solar and wind renewables in power systems worldwide. A recent analysis from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) illustrates how electricity

Electricity storage provider Bushveld Energy initiated the development of a minigrid project, at the Vametco mining and processing facility, in March last year. The facility is located 8 km northeast of Brits, in the North West.

Falling technology costs have made renewable energy a cost-effective way to generate power in countries all over the world, which would drive further development and improved economy. Despite the tremendous efforts that have been deployed at

The redox flow battery market is growing. After more than 40 years of research, and 20 years of testing and demonstration projects, the flow batteries are now technologically ready to compete on the energy storage market.

Manufacturer and integrator redT has been given a provision notice from Pivot Power to manufacture the 2MW / 5MWh of vanadium redox flow batteries as part of the Energy Superhub Oxford project, striking up a partnership with vanadium producer

While the majority of current vanadium demand underwritten by the steel industry as an additive to strengthen various grades of steel, a small, yet increasing amount of vanadium demand is being taken up by the global

While lithium batteries have taken center stage for energy storage, vanadium redox flow batteries could gain considerable traction in 2020. In previous years, vanadium battery installations around the world have done little more than provide proof

For beginners, it can seem like a good idea (and an exciting prospect) to buy a company that tells a good story to investors, even if it completely lacks a track record of revenue and profit.

The decarbonising of operations across a company’s value chain – once seen as a nice-to-have reporting metric – is today, a corporate responsibility expectation and an industry-level credibility test. More importantly, going forward, the ability to
