Shell buys Nigerian solar provider in first African power deal

Shell (NYSE:SHEL) made its first power sector acquisition in Africa on Wednesday with the purchase of Nigerian renewable energy provider Daystar Power for an undisclosed sum, Financial Times reports, as Shell expands its global renewables portfolio.

Daystar provides off-grid power to commercial and industrial clients in Nigeria, Ghana, Togo and Senegal, offering solar and hybrid power solutions with battery storage.

The cash inflow from Shell (SHEL) will help Daystar increase its installed solar capacity to 400 MW by 2025 from 32 MW currently and expand services beyond West Africa to the eastern and southern parts of the continent.

The deal for Daystar is "a fundamental step for Shell in growing our presence in emerging power markets," said Thomas Brostrom, Shell's (SHEL) executive VP for renewable generation.

"Contrary to popular opinion, it looks like a good time to sell Shell, despite its attractive valuation," Manika Premsingh writes in a bearish analysis posted recently on Seeking Alpha.

what are these new energy fuels consist of,electricity will not fill the gap as its not some thing you can move around like a tanker.

i suppose it has to be hydrogen which is not easy to make as it takes alot of electricity to make it.

where is all this power going to come from as we are losing many power stations each year and you just cannot erect a new one over night.

i feel the way the world is going is there is going to be huge unrest as they try and get rid of fossil fuels..

Me too. II really are the best out there on all levels. I've had dividends credited before the Market even opens sometimes!

Just to let you know I am with II too and my Shell divi was credited to both my accounts on 20th Sept.

Still not credited at Interactive Brokers. I complained (again), they are 'investigating'.

labour plan is to tax energy companys profit by 100% anyway.. so whos investing in this green?.

John Redwood@johnredwoodYou cannot close all gas and coal power stations this decade to rely on renewables. There's no power when the wind does not blow and the sun does not shine. You need a hydrogen, battery storage and nuclear revolution to do so. This will not happen by 2030.6:58 am · 26 Sep 2022·Twitter Web App

i thought this idea of electricity production had been going for years all over the world using water storage and pumping back up again,the only difference i see with this one is using off peak wind power to pump it back up again.

they have one in the snowy mountains in oz and another in scotland,how do they get the power from just wind farms to the generating site as they are normally miles away from each other.

A Swiss pumped-storage power station, which can both produce electricity and store power from other sources, has been officially inaugurated.

The Nant de Drance hydroelectric plant in western Switzerland has been operational since July. Its turbines can generate 900 megawatts of electricity per hour by releasing water from an upper reservoir through dam sluice gates.

This is a similar amount of electricity production as the Gösgen nuclear power plant in Switzerland, making Nant de Drance one of the largest power producers in Europe.

The Nant de Drance facility can also store power by pumping the water back up to the reservoir ready for re-use when more electricity is needed. The storage capacity of the plant is equivalent to more than 400,000 car batteries.

It was built to cope with fluctuations in wind and solar-power supply and help stabilise electricity output Europe-wide.

It could, for example, store surplus energy from solar plants in Europe to be later released when the sun is not shining.

The Nant de Drance station is built in a remote region of canton Valais at an elevation of 2,225 metres above sea level next to the Vieux Emosson reservoir.

John Redwood@johnredwoodMost people have gas heating and petrol or diesel vehicles. More wind turbines are fine when everyone has gone electric and when we can store power for windless days. For now we need more affordable fossil fuels to keep factories working ,homes warm and vehicles working.6:10 am · 25 Sep 2022·Twitter Web App

Just returned from a week away -- no divi credited by HSBC yet.
They were a week late in June too.
Anyone else have HSBC as broker?

no mention of the huge russian pressure to stop us fracking so we depend on the imports from there..

II proceeds in early doors so I suspect it's just down to your lazy/inept broker. spud
