Preparing now for hydrogen electric flight, including passenger and cargo vehicles and electric vertical aircraft (EVA) that are quiet, carbon-neutral and cost-effective
BEND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Element 1 Corporation announced today that it has entered into a global agreement with NEXA Capital Partners LLC to accelerate the adoption of its methanol-to-hydrogen generators for fuel cell applications in aerospace and particularly electric vertical aircraft. Element 1 and NEXA are combining their expertise, along with NEXA’s capital market access, to hasten the introduction and commercialization of fuel cells for hydrogen powered flight.
Methanol is well known for its properties as a hydrogen carrier because a given volume of methanol carries more recoverable hydrogen fuel than an equivalent volume of liquid hydrogen. Compared to conventional fuels, renewable methanol produced from biomass, wind and other processes cuts carbon dioxide emissions by up to 95%, reduces nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 90%, and completely eliminates sulfur oxide and particulate matter emissions.
Element 1 possesses the world’s only scalable methanol-to-hydrogen generator and is the global leader in small-scale to medium-scale solutions for both fuel cell stationary power and fuel cell HD mobility. Its technologies can apply to hydrogen refueling stations (HRS), as well as onboard hydrogen generators (trucks, trains, marine vessels, and, in the near future, aircraft). Element 1’s methanol reforming products are scalable, reliable, and affordable, and are accelerating the adoption of fuel cell solutions globally by solving the “Hydrogen Challenge.”
Dave Edlund, President and CEO of Element 1, said, “Our hydrogen generators, when paired with fuel cells, will improve the performance of EVAs by generating onboard power for propulsion as well as by recharging onboard batteries. Element 1’s solutions, using a hydrogen dense mixture of methanol and water, will significantly extend the range of EVAs beyond what may be typically achieved using onboard compressed hydrogen.” He added, “In addition, most hydrogen today is generated at large-scale production facilities, delivered and stored as a liquified or compressed gas. Element 1 designs hydrogen generators that significantly reduce the cost profile of delivered hydrogen. Lack of affordable hydrogen at the point of use has been one of the most significant factors limiting the growth of the global hydrogen economy. We can now produce hydrogen at low cost on-site at thousands of airports worldwide.”
Captain (ret.) Hank Krakowski, NEXA Principal and Technical Project Lead, observes, “This emerging methanol/hydrogen technology represents a force-multiplier joining the ongoing Sustainable Aviation Fuel initiatives in assisting the aerospace industry to reach its 2050 Sustainability Goals.”
According to Michael Dyment, Managing Partner of NEXA, “Hydrogen-powered electric systems are about to change aviation the same way the jet engine revolutionized air travel 70 years ago. Element 1’s methanol-to-hydrogen technologies will make flying more efficient, more sustainable, and far more affordable. In Element 1, our investment strategy now has a unique technology partner that shares our commitment to a green hydrogen aviation future.”
NEXA and Element 1 will begin moving this technology into the aerospace manufacturing supply chain immediately, and through their newly formed partnership are expected to tap policies and funding from the recently enacted $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (HR 3684). The legislation calls for the development of a sector-by-sector national strategy and roadmap to facilitate a clean hydrogen economy. HR 3684 explicitly mentions methanol as a practical hydrogen-carrier.
About Element 1
Element 1 of Bend, Oregon is a leading developer of small-scale to micro-scale clean energy technologies, including advanced hydrogen generation systems supporting the fuel cell industry. Element 1 has developed innovative products that are scalable, reliable, affordable, and provide flexibility allowing for easy integration into customer solutions.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Express Delivery Market by Application, End Use and Destination: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Express delivery is the quickest method of shipping. The client pays an additional shipping fee for express delivery as the shipment will be done within 24-72 hours. It mainly includes non-palletized packages of documents, parcels, letters, merchandise, and other consumer goods to various customers such as retail customers, business customers, and government agencies in specific destinations. Also, express delivery services are coupled with a variety of value-added services, such as packaging, labeling, billing, payment collection, and return, to improvise the delivery experience for the user.
The rapid growth of the e-commerce industry coupled with rise in B2C deliveries and international trade services propel the market growth. However, lack of infrastructure in several developing countries and higher operational costs of express delivery services are expected to hinder the market growth. Furthermore, various technological advancements in delivery services such as IoT, artificial intelligence & machine learning and emergence of last-mile deliveries coupled with the advancements in delivery vehicles are some of the factors offering future opportunities for the market growth.
The market is segmented on the basis of application, end-use, and destination. Based on application, it is bifurcated into B2B and B2C. By end-use, it is divided into e-commerce platform, document service and others. On the basis of destination, it is categorized into domestics and international. Region wise, it is studied across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis:
The outbreak of COVID-19 resulted in flight cancellations, travel bans, and quarantines, which led to massive slowing of the supply chain and logistics activities including express deliveries across the world. Also, the supply chain disturbance created by COVID-19 is expected to impact the competitiveness, economic growth, and jobs lost in the delivery industry.
Although, there has been increasing urgent demand for healthcare and FMCG supplies, such as hospital supplies, gloves, sanitizers, vaccinations, and perishable food items, which propels the growth of the express delivery market during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, significant growth in B2C e-commerce and daily essentials goods deliveries during the pandemic positively affects the express delivery market during COVID situation. For instance, according to new data from IBM's U.S. Retail Index, the pandemic has accelerated the shift away from physical stores to digital shopping.

Analytics and insights software platform, Raptor Solar, now includes unlimited inspection reports, normalization of data and a host of new productivity tools.
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#SaaS--Raptor Maps has launched several new features for its analytics and insights software platform, Raptor Solar, aimed at improving productivity, lifting performance and increasing ROI of solar assets. Their software-as-a-service platform for the entire solar lifecycle — from financing and construction through operations — is powered by machine learning and data that Raptor Maps has gathered from over 50 GW of solar power production across 40 countries.
Raptor Solar builds robust digital twins, or digital maps, of solar arrays. The subscription software platform now comes with unlimited inspection reports that are input agnostic — drones, planes, satellites or sensors. The platform can even digitize, standardize and store third party reports.
This enables customers to compare PV module inspection results and degradation over time for a bird’s eye view of solar assets. Users can visualize long term degradation, view recurring issues and trending anomalies as well as keep track of issue resolution. The software allows customers to quantify financial and production loss and even benchmark portfolios against their global database of PV system anomalies.
An industry-first, Raptor Solar also allows you to normalize inspection measurements with sensor and weather data across multiple inspections. Integrate inverter, combiner, pyranometer and other sensor data with inspection reports. Power production, irradiance and other data streams can all be imported, offering context around anomalies as well as more quantitative evidence of asset degradation. The software integrates with SCADA or DAS systems with a few simple clicks to automate otherwise time intensive processes.
This makes meeting BloombergNEF Tier 1 module OEM warranty requirements easier and faster. Using irradiance measurements, aerial thermography results are normalized to Standard Test Conditions (STC), allowing you to quickly get warranty claims processed with less back and forth.
Raptor Solar also now includes several productivity tools to allow teams to work efficiently and communicate effectively — from technicians to executives. The software provides a centralized and secure place to store inspection reports, documents, CAD files, technical specifications, performance models, warranty documentation, shipping receipts, photographs and data. Store all information in one place required for warranty claims, financial or M&A due diligence and general solar farm maintenance, enabling collaboration between parties. Raptor Solar also lets you download original imagery and data for a higher level of auditability.
“We saw an opportunity to accelerate solar industry performance with data, analytics, software and machine learning while making it easier to manage solar installations,” said Nikhil Vadhavkar, CEO & Co-Founder of Raptor Maps. “Customers have easily and quickly been able to deploy Raptor Solar, uniting previously siloed data and unlocking actionable learnings that increase productivity.”
Additional new features include as-built field navigation and serial number geo-location. These build upon the company’s previously-launched barcode scanning and serial number mapping application, the first of its kind for the solar industry. An Android or Apple mobile phone or any Bluetooth scanner allows you to scan barcodes on PV modules, validate serial numbers against OEM verified data and store the data, geo-tagged to your as-built.
The serial number scanning app lets you verify solar supply chains for safe harboring and tax incentive eligibility. You can use the app to validate construction progress in real time or at mechanical or substantial completion. Technicians can scan serial numbers on site for location relative to anomalies. After repairs or replacement, subsequent inspections can confirm punch list completion. The mobile app can be used while on site to view data from inverters and weather stations. And the app lets users export serial number data to spreadsheets, including PV module latitudes and longitudes.
Globally, solar power is in the spotlight as many renewable energy companies seek to reduce the levelized cost of electricity and find innovative ways to identify and track issues with renewable energy equipment. Raptor Maps is one of few companies that provide PV aerial inspections powered by machine learning that meet the standards of the International Electrotechnical Commission. Raptor Maps inspections empower commercial, industrial and utility-scale solar owners and operators to take action on various types of solar equipment degradation, increasing performance and ultimately lifting ROI.
About Raptor Maps
Raptor Maps offers an advanced software platform to standardize data, analyze insights and collaborate across solar. Commissioning info, serial number mapping, equipment records, inspections, aerial thermography, warranty claims, mobile tools and more — all powered by their industry-leading data model. Intelligence for the entire solar industry — asset owners, managers, O&M, engineers, EPCs, financiers and OEMs. Standardize and compare data across installations, increase performance and reduce costs.

About Velo3D:
Velo3D is a metal 3D printing technology company. 3D printing—also known as additive manufacturing (AM)—has a unique ability to improve the way high-value metal parts are built. However, legacy metal AM has been greatly limited in its capabilities since its invention almost 30 years ago. This has prevented the technology from being used to create the most valuable and impactful parts, restricting its use to specific niches where the limitations were acceptable.
Velo3D has overcome these limitations so engineers can design and print the parts they want. The company’s solution unlocks a wide breadth of design freedom and enables customers in space exploration, aviation, power generation, energy and semiconductor to innovate the future in their respective industries. Using Velo3D, these customers can now build mission-critical metal parts that were previously impossible to manufacture. The end-to-end solution includes the Flow™ print preparation software, the Sapphire® family of printers, and the Assure™ quality control system—all of which are powered by Velo3D’s Intelligent Fusion® manufacturing process. The company delivered its first Sapphire® system in 2018 and has been a strategic partner to innovators such as SpaceX, Honeywell, Honda, Chromalloy, and Lam Research. Velo3D has been named to Fast Company’s prestigious annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2021.

HONG KONG--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CSOP WTI Crude Oil Futures Daily (-1x) Inverse Product (stock code:7345.HK) will be listed on Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 1 December, 2021. Using a combination of a Futures-based replication strategy and a Swap-based synthetic replication strategy, 7345.HK provides investment results closely corresponding to inverse (-1x) the Daily performance of Solactive WTI 1-Day Rolling Futures Index (the “Index”). 7345.HK mainly invests in the active contracts of West Texas Intermediate crude oil (“WTI crude oil”) (also known as Texas light sweet crude oil) futures contracts traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) (“WTI Futures Contracts”) and in Swaps when such investments are beneficial to the product to achieve its investment objective. In the current volatile market circumstances, 7345.HK has attracted USD 5.6 million initial investment. The inception price per unit is around HKD 7.8 with trading lot of 100 units, and the entry investment is approximately HKD 780.
Being currently the primary source of energy production, oil is one of the most important commodities worldwide. However, given the changes brought by COVID-19, escalating geopolitical disputes and carbon neutrality goals, oil prices are now facing unprecedented uncertainties than ever before. The impact of the COVID-19 hammered oil demand in 2020, forcing WTI oil futures prices to go negative for the first time on record. On 20 April 2020, the oil futures prices have witnessed the largest one-day plunge of over 300% in history, plummeting from USD 18 a barrel to around USD -37 a barrel.1 Although the economy has begun to recover and OPEC has controlled its production, oil futures prices may still experience turbulence in the future owing to repeated COVID-19 outbreaks and unexpected geopolitical disputes. In addition, determined to realize carbon neutrality, global major economies set clear goals to curb carbon emissions latest in the first half of this century. Renewable energy is developing quickly as a substitute for conventional crude oil. The share of renewable energy is estimated to account for 61.8% of total power generation by 2030.2 Moreover, seasonal changes and increasing extreme weather conditions can also impose more variances to oil prices. All these factors together make oil prices more volatile and turbulent than ever. CSOP WTI Crude Oil Futures Daily (-1x) Inverse Product (stock code:7345.HK) can help investors hedge against crude oil volatility in the ever-changing market environment and capture investment opportunities in times of such uncertainty in an easy and transparent way.
Since the first Leveraged & Inversed (“L&I”) product listed in 2016, Hong Kong’s L&I market has seen a continuous growth to HKD 14.34 billion in size and HKD 1.14 billion of average daily turnover as end of October, 2021.3 Dominating Hong Kong’s L&I market, CSOP has demonstrated a remarkable track record with credibility and success by having introduced 15 L&I products in Hong Kong, contributing more than 90% AUM and daily turnover to Hong Kong’s L&I market.4 Ms. Ding Chen, CEO of CSOP comments, “We are very proud of what we have achieved in the past. The success of our past encourages us to remain dedicated to bringing more excellent L&I products to our investors, further promoting the prosperity and development of Hong Kong’s L&I market.” Melody He, Managing Director and Head of Business Development, adds, “From repeated Covid outbreaks to complicated international situation, investors are facing unprecedented uncertainties. I believe 7345.HK will be an excellent tool to help investors hedge risks and handle oil price volatilities amid increasing uncertainties.”
