Science that is 'settled' is not science.

'One of the best pieces of financial advice I've ever had is to write down why you are making an investment.While it may be blindingly obvious why you are excited about a new opportunity today, it may be less clear tomorrow when the price is falling and you are in a lather about whether to hold, buy more or sell.A note setting out the reasons why you liked the investment in the first place will give you something tangible to focus on if your brain is unsettled by the prospect of losing money.'Tom Stevenson Daily Telegraph.

Shell Energy Europe Ltd. has agreed to trade power from what will be the U.K.’s largest battery storage project.

The Royal Dutch Shell Plc unit agreed to a multi-year deal to “optimize the use of renewable power” in the China-backed project, which is expected to come online by the end of this year. Batteries, Shell says, will play a key role in the energy transition as these will be able to store excess energy and feed it back to the grid when demand calls for it.

China Huaneng Group and China’s state-backed CNIC fund are backing the Minety power storage project, which consists of two 50-megawatt batteries in southwest England. “Projects like this will be vital for balancing the U.K.’s electricity demand and supply as wind and solar power play bigger roles in powering our lives,” according to David Wells, vice president of SEEL.

SEEL and its subsidiary Limejump, will “optimize̶1; the energy through the use of its virtual power platform which aggregates energy from a network of batteries in the U.K.

Shell acquired Limejump in 2019, as the company deepens its foray into the power industry having also bought U.K.-based First Utility Ltd. -- now Shell Energy -- and offshore wind company Eolfi over the last few years. The Dutch oil and gas major is investing US$1 billion to US$2 billion annually in its new energies business, which it aims to increase to US$2 billion to US$3 billion per year in in 2021 to 2025.

The company’s ambition to become the world’s biggest power producer hit a stumbling block last year when it was outbid to buy Dutch utility Eneco NV by Japan’s Mitsubishi Corp. and Chubu Electric Power Co.

Indeed. Some of us have older holdings. Some in the 12 ish region. Some lucky people have generational support of rdsb forms.

montyhedge,

"Don't top up until 1525p the 2016 low."
---------------------------------------

Wrong again monty. I bought 3 separate tranches in 2016 and all were between £13.75 and £14.50.

Edit: I think the low was £13.50 from memory.

having a good look over the charts for rdsb I don't see it as positive in the short term. looks like more drips to come for me but who the hell knows?. I have bought my first tranche a few days ago and if this goes to the next major support point below here I will top up.
