Jochen Staiger, founder and CEO of Swiss Resource Capital AG, located in Herisau, Switzerland, opines that We are now entering the second year of our uranium report. Uranium is a hot commodity today, but not many investors have recognized this yet and have not yet positioned themselves accordingly. However, without energy production from uranium, i.e. nuclear power plants, we will have a huge global problem in the stable supply of basic energy. The electric revolution, above all electro-mobility, would thus be nothing more than a beautiful dream. Because according to popular opinion, electricity comes from the socket, so no problem. Only hardly anyone thinks about how the electricity gets into the socket.
Our series of special reports started with lithium and silver, but these reports have since evolved into battery metal and precious metal reports. Closely connected to the battery metals (the main components of lithium-ion batteries, the heart of every electric vehicle) is the base load-capable power supply(charge) of the batteries, and thus either the combustion of coal, natural gas or oil or the use of uranium as a fuel element in nuclear power plants. There are no other base-load-capable energy generation methods as long as no adequately large storage facilities have been created for electricity from renewable energy sources. This report is intended to give the reader an overview of the uranium industry and the real facts as well as the global energy supply from nuclear power. China in particular needs nuclear power in order not to suffocate, as most of the electricity is still generated by coal-fired power plants. At the same time, several of the top uranium producers have announced that they will artificially reduce their production in or from 2018 in order to bring the uranium spot price back to a level that is essential for the survival of most companies and to put pressure on the energy companies to renegotiate their supply contracts, which are due to expire shortly.
"There‘s really only one technology that we know of that supplies carbon-free power at the scale modern civilization requires, and that is nuclear power“ - Ken Caldeira of Stanford University‘s Department of Global Ecology.
Raw materials are the basis of our entire economic coexistence. Without raw materials there are no products, no technical innovations and no real economic life. We need a reliable and constant basic energy supply for our highly industrialized world. Swiss Resource Capital AG has set itself the task of providing interested people with comprehensive information on metals, raw materials and various listed mining companies. On our website www.resource-capital.ch you will find 20 companies from various raw material sectors as well as a lot of information and articles about raw materials.
With our Special Reports we want to give you insights and provide you with comprehensive information. In addition, you have the opportunity to always inform yourself through our two raw material IPTV channels: www.Commodity-TV.net and www.Rohstoff-TV.net free of charge. For the mobile everyday life, you can download our newly developed Commodity-TV App for iPhone and Android onto your smartphone. Here you get real-time charts, stock quotes, indices and the latest videos automatically to your mobile phone no matter where you are. My team and I hope you enjoy reading the Uranium Special Report and that we can provide you with lots of new information, impressions and ideas. Only those who are well informed will be able to acquire and preserve their assets in these difficult times.
