Real ale festival bosses apologises amid political barrel 'oversight'

A real ale festival is being investigated by a charity watchdog after several political parties were allowed to sponsor a the July event, barrels of alcohol were sponsored by Reform, the Liberal Democrats, and the Conservative Party, with proceeds going to the festival's organisers, the Weston-super-Mare Lions at the Charity Commission are now looking into the incident as a potential breach of charity, which raises money for community services, has apologised for the "oversight" and said "maintaining political impartiality is crucial". The Real Ale and Cider Festival organised by the charity took place in Weston between 25-27 president Paul Middleton said taking sponsorship from the political parties was "very naïve" and promised it would not happen again."The Weston-super-Mare Lions would like to apologise unreservedly for any offence taken with the barrel (not event) sponsorship from the Reform, Liberal Democrats and Conservative parties," he said."It was never our intention to align with or promote any political agenda. "The sponsorship was accepted without fully considering the broader implications. we now recognise that maintaining political impartiality is crucial."We take full responsibility for this oversight and the impact it may have had."The charity has since refunded all money taken from the political sponsorships "Thank you to those who voiced their concerns, your feedback is important, and we remain committed to learning from this and doing better," Mr Middleton added.

Hydrogen at a crossroads: Plug Power, Pure Hydrogen and Nel ASA between opportunity and crisis

The hydrogen industry is facing a critical turning point in 2025. Despite massive political support and growing global market volume, companies are struggling with profitability gaps and regulatory hurdles. The widening gap between ambition and implementation is becoming an existential threat. Only those who successfully master innovation, scalability, and infrastructure connectivity will survive the upcoming market shakeout. In this tense environment, it will be determined who can truly capitalize on the billion-dollar opportunities of green hydrogen – and who will be left behind. We take a look at Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG), Pure Hydrogen (GREY:PHCLF) and Nel ASA and analyze their path forward. Plug Power – Upswing with hurdles Plug Power delivered solid figures in the first quarter. Revenue rose 11% to USD 134 million, driven by electrolysers, material handling and cryogenic technology. Nevertheless, profitability remains the big challenge. Loss per share was USD 0.21, which was better than in the previous year but below analysts' expectations. The gross margin improved significantly from -132% to -55% thanks to cost reductions and more efficient supply chains. However, there is still a long way to go before the Company returns to profitability. This remains a critical issue for investors, even if the Company is heading in the right direction. This article is disseminated in partnership with Pure Hydrogen Corporation Ltd. It is intended to inform investors and should not be taken as a recommendation or financial advice. The liquidity situation has eased. Plug Power halved its cash burn, successfully placed shares worth USD 280 million, and secured a credit line of USD 525 million. At the end of the quarter, around USD 300 million was available. A government loan guarantee of USD 1.66 billion for the construction of up to six green hydrogen plants in the US is crucial. These projects are central to the planned capacity increase to 500 tons of hydrogen per day by the end of 2025. This creates prospects, but requires further high investments. Operationally, the Company focuses on three pillars: material handling, electrolysers, and hydrogen supply. With 'Quantum Leap,' it is aiming for annual savings of over USD 200 million to get on the path to profitability. Although industry is growing thanks to the energy transition and US subsidies, political uncertainties and new tariffs on Chinese imports are clouding the outlook. In the short term, the focus will remain on margins. The question remains: Can Plug Power become big enough before the money runs out? Recently, more investors have become convinced that it can, including CFO Paul Middleton, who bought shares on a large scale. Since then, the share price has climbed to USD 1.62. Pure Hydrogen – More than just vehicles The last few weeks have brought tangible progress for the Australian company Pure Hydrogen (GREY:PHCLF). After reporting a 715% jump in revenue to AUD 1.65 million in the six months to December 2024, the following quarter to the end of March 2025 saw a significant slowdown. At AUD 2.164 million, revenue exceeded the previous half-year by around AUD 500,000. This enabled Pure Hydrogen to generate positive cash flow from operating activities of around AUD 398,000 for the first time. This is an important signal for financial stability during growth. In parallel with its operational consolidation, Pure Hydrogen is pushing ahead with its global presence. In addition to its established commitment in North America, the Company secured a strategic distributor for the entire South American market in July. The partnership with FRN Enterprise from Argentina opens doors for vehicles and infrastructure. At the same time, it is cleverly exploiting Nikola's insolvency in North America. Through partnerships with former Nikola dealers, it is tapping into the US network, benefiting from favorable customs conditions for Australian vehicles. Initial demo tours in California are already underway. Previously, the framework agreement with GreenH2 LATAM, worth AUD 44 million, had already shown that the equipment business is gaining traction internationally. Income from payments reached over AUD 1.3 million in April, a clear further indication of the Company's implementation strength. Taurus Hydrogen Fuel Cell Prime Mover. (Source: Pure Hydrogen) The granting of 15-year PCA status for the Windorah Gas Project in Queensland by the government was legally significant – a milestone for the planned spin-off of the gas assets under 'Eastern Gas'. Pure Hydrogen is also making clever use of government funding instruments. The Company expects to receive approximately AUD 1.1 million in Australian research grants in 2025, following a total of AUD 1.86 million in previous years. These funds will support the development of emission-free technologies. The 40% stake in the Turquoise Group also has potential for value appreciation, as the Company produces graphene powder, the new wonder material, and hydrogen. At the beginning of July, the share price shot up by a good 60% and has since consolidated to its current level of AUD 0.094. Nel ASA – Hydrogen pioneer in a strategic field of tension Norwegian hydrogen specialist Nel ASA remains a key name in the emerging but challenging market for green energy solutions. The Company is currently navigating between promising strategic initiatives and ongoing operational challenges. While global decarbonization targets and political support programs in Europe and the US provide long-term tailwinds, Nel is struggling in the short term to translate these into concrete, profitable business. The latest quarterly figures clearly underscore this discrepancy. Nel has forged important strategic partnerships, most notably with South Korean industrial giant Samsung E&A, which has become the largest single shareholder with a 9.1% stake. This alliance aims to market Nel's electrolyzer technology through Samsung's global networks and open up new markets, particularly in Asia. At the same time, substantial EU subsidies are flowing into the industrialization of new pressure alkaline electrolysis technology and the expansion of production capacities in Norway to up to 4 gigawatts. Expansion is also underway in the US with a new PEM electrolyzer factory. These initiatives aim to reduce costs and strengthen the Company's competitive position through scaling. Despite these positive signals, the current operating performance shows weaknesses. Significant declines in revenue, particularly in the core business with alkaline electrolyzers, and the absence of new large orders are weighing on the balance sheet. Several major projects have been canceled, fueling uncertainty. Although solid liquidity and the existing order backlog provide breathing space, the road to profitability is rocky. At the same time, pressure is growing from competitors such as thyssenkrupp nucera and Plug Power, which are also investing heavily. Nel ASA shares are currently trading at EUR 0.231. The hydrogen industry is facing a market-defining turning point in 2025: only those who master scaling, profitability, and political volatility will survive. Plug Power is stabilizing its liquidity thanks to billions in government loans, new credit lines, and reduced cash burn, but continues to struggle with losses and must prove that it can also make a profit. Pure Hydrogen scores with its first positive operating cash flow, global expansion into America, and clever use of subsidies. Despite strategic partnerships and EU funding, Nel ASA is suffering from weak operating performance, declining revenue and project cancellations. The discrepancy between future investments and current profitability is striking.

Why Plug Power Stock Surged 69% in June

Key Points Plug Power bagged another big deal for electrolyzers in June. The hydrogen producer and fuel cell maker is also looking for new ways to raise funds. 10 stocks we like better than Plug Power › Plug Power(NASDAQ: PLUG) stock went ballistic in June, surging 68.8% according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. A big electrolyzer deal, insider buying, and President Donald Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill" helped the hydrogen stock log its best month so far in 2025, but can the stock go any higher? Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » The trio behind Plug Power stock's stunning rally After signing a 3 gigawatt (GW) electrolyzer agreement with Allied Green Ammonia in January for its factory in Australia, Plug Power bagged another deal on June for 2 GW electrolyzer capacity for Allied Green's $5.5 billion green chemical production facility in Uzbekistan. Around the same time in June, Plug Power CFO Paul Middleton purchased 650,000 shares on the open market at an average price of $1.03 per share, topping his earlier purchase of 350,000 shares for $0.72 per share in May. Middleton called the additional investment a reflection of his "strong conviction in Plug's strategy and long-term value creation," adding that he sees meaningful upside in Plug Power as the company executes and gains traction. Yet another deal and the CFO's bet sent the languishing hydrogen stock soaring 42% in just three trading days between June 9 and June 11. The stock bolted even higher toward the end of the month after the Senate voted for Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill with an advanced version that proposed to end clean hydrogen production tax credits for projects starting only after Dec. 31, 2027. Investors saw this as a huge win for the hydrogen industry since the previous bill wanted to ax tax credits by as early as the end of this year. Read this before you buy Plug Power stock Plug Power's partnership with Allied Green for 5 GW is monumental, but there's a catch. Plug Power doesn't expect a final investment decision (FID) before the fourth quarter of 2025, without which the deal holds little meaning. And, even if Plug Power secures an FID, it could still take a couple of years or more to deliver the first electrolyzer to Allied Green. In between, Plug Power is struggling to keep its operations running since it's a loss-making company. In 2024, Plug Power reported a net loss of $2 billion and ended the year with just about $205 million in cash and cash equivalents. Plug Power has consistently sold shares to raise funds, which is one of the biggest reasons why the stock tanked over the past year or so. In June, Plug Power even urged its shareholders to vote in favor of doubling the number of its authorized common stock, which is simply another means to raise money. By doing so, Plug Power can also avoid a reverse stock split, which could otherwise become unavoidable if the company wants to remain listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange. In short, there are too many ifs and buts, and anyone betting on Plug Power stock now for fear of missing out could end up losing more than they desire.

Are These 3 Bullish Signs Enough to Make Plug Power a Buy in June?

Shares of Plug Power have soared some 32% over the past month. Several signs suggest brighter days ahead for the fuel cell specialist. The stock is suitable only for those who are comfortable with high risk. 10 stocks we like better than Plug Power › Shares of fuel cell and hydrogen specialist Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG) are showing signs of recovering from the dismal performance they put up for most of 2025's first half. The stock is up by about 32% over the past month (as of June 23), as investors demonstrate enthusiasm over a number of recent company developments. But the seemingly auspicious signs that have motivated some to click the buy button look insufficient. Investors would be better advised to refrain from buying Plug stock. Here's why. When company insiders make large stock purchases on the open market, investors usually sit up and take notice. So when Plug Chief Financial Officer Paul Middleton bought 350,000 shares in an open-market transaction in May, many took it as an encouraging sign. Communicating his confidence in Plug Power even further, Middleton purchased an additional 650,000 shares on June 9 in a transaction valued at more than $672,000. In the press release that addressed the June purchase, Middleton said: "This additional investment reflects my strong conviction in Plug's strategy and long-term value creation. As we execute and gain market traction, I continue to see meaningful upside and believe Plug remains one of the most compelling growth opportunities in the energy sector." While the stock purchases are worth acknowledgment, they may not fully convey confidence in the company. Had Middleton made his purchases without the company drawing attention to them through the issuing of press releases, they would have gone further in communicating his confidence in the Plug Power's future. Plug Power's bread and butter is its fuel-cell business, but it has broadened its reach and expanded into hydrogen production over the past several years. And in April, it produced 300 metric tons of liquid hydrogen at its facility in Georgia, a record monthly output for the facility since it opened in January 2024. Plug further described it as "a new benchmark for the U.S. hydrogen industry." Walmart, Amazon, and Home Depot are all Plug customers that receive hydrogen produced at the Georgia facility. That achievement was impressive, but it hardly moves the needle in terms of making Plug stock a convincing buy. In the first quarter, Plug reported a negative gross profit margin of 101.5% for the fuel it delivered to customers and related equipment business, which includes its hydrogen production business. That means its costs were more than double its revenue. Unless the company can demonstrate that its hydrogen production business can be a profitable endeavor, its success in boosting that production will mean little. With the first half of 2025 nearly in the rear-view mirror, Plug has inked several notable agreements. Most recently, it announced an expansion of its collaboration with Allied Green Ammonia, an Australian developer of ammonia production facilities. Plug will provide 2 gigawatts (GW) of electrolyzer capacity for an ammonia production facility that Allied Green Ammonia is developing in Uzbekistan. In January, the two companies agreed to a deal related to a green hydrogen-to-ammonia plant that Allied Green Ammonia is currently developing in Australia. According to the deal, Plug will provide three GWs of electrolyzer capacity for the project. When complete, the facility is expected to be one of the largest green ammonia production facilities in the world, with a capacity of about 2,700 metric tons of ammonia daily. Although the deals with Allied Green Ammonia are worthy of note, it's unclear exactly how lucrative they will be for Plug since their financial terms were not disclosed. Plug has a history of signing impressive deals such as those with Walmart and Amazon, but those deals haven't translated into profitability, and it's unlikely these new ones will do much to bring Plug closer to profitability either. Investors have long been interested in Plug as a holding that provides exposure to an unusual part of the renewable energy industry. To the chagrin of its shareholders, though, the company has long failed to achieve the growth that management had projected. And despite the recent news items, it doesn't seem that much has changed. In that context, the stock doesn't look like a buy right now. Before you buy stock in Plug Power, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Plug Power wasn't one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years.

Plug Power's comeback, Desert Gold's crisis protection, BP's oil boom: Your triple 200% opportunity for 2025

Savvy investors see opportunities in turbulent markets: three sectors now offer explosive return potential. Hydrogen stocks are poised for a spectacular turnaround after their slump, gold is shining as a shield against crises with record prices confirming the trend, while oil is benefiting from geopolitical upheaval in the Middle East. Those who take advantage of this momentum could realize substantial gains. The key is to look for companies that have the potential to double in value. Plug Power, Desert Gold, and BP are particularly promising. Plug Power – Why the hydrogen pioneer could be on track to double in value Plug Power, an established player in the green hydrogen market with a focus on fuel cells and electrolysis technology is struggling with regulatory hurdles and liquidity concerns in 2025. This makes the massive share purchase by CFO Paul Middleton all the more remarkable. Within a few weeks, he significantly increased his stake by a total of 650,000 shares, a clear sign of confidence in the Company's future. This coincides with significant operational progress. The scaling of hydrogen production is underway, demand for solutions such as GenDrive for industrial trucks is rising, and GenEco electrolysers are finding commercial sales. In addition, the Georgia plant reported record production in April. A key driver of the recent share price surge was a billion-dollar project in Uzbekistan. Plug is supplying 2 gigawatts of PEM electrolysers for a USD 5.5 billion plant to produce sustainable fuels. This expands the partnership with Allied Green Ammonia, which was already concluded in January, by 3 gigawatts in Australia to a total of 5 gigawatts globally. Such large orders are essential to lead Plug away from niche solutions and toward industrial scaling. They demonstrate the Company's technological leadership and the confidence of major partners in Plug as a system provider for decarbonization. However, the road ahead is rocky. US regulation remains the biggest Sword of Damocles. The threat of the 45V tax credit for green hydrogen being scrapped and the Trump administration's review of a USD 1.7 billion DOE loan commitment jeopardize the national expansion strategy. Plug Power is cutting costs aggressively, reducing cash burn and aiming for gross margin breakeven by the end of the year. Liquidity is expected to be sufficient for 2025. However, political clarity in the US is needed for a real prospect of doubling. The stock is currently trading at USD 1.31, and the Company intends to resolve a share consolidation at its upcoming annual general meeting. Desert Gold – Undervalued explorer in gold stronghold In the heart of West Africa's gold belt, surrounded by producing giants such as Barrick and B2Gold, Desert Gold Ventures (TSXV:DAU) controls a huge 440 sq km exploration area in Mali. The confirmed and inferred gold resources of around 1.1 million ounces are mostly near surface. This is not only geologically promising but also has the potential to reduce future production costs significantly. The location in the highly prospective Senegal-Mali Shear Zone (SMSZ) is a major advantage, as millions of ounces of gold are already being mined there today. Desert Gold is, therefore, operating in a well-proven area. The Company is facing decisive value drivers. The preliminary economic assessment (PEA), which is expected soon, will demonstrate for the first time the economic feasibility of potential production using low-cost heap leach technology. At the same time, a planned drilling program of up to 30,000 meters is expected to upgrade the mineral resource estimate significantly. Historical drilling data acquired by the Company earlier this year indicates additional resources of nearly 500,000 ounces, which could raise the total potential to over 1.5 million ounces. Rising gold prices and increasing takeover pressure in the region are strong catalysts. Despite these prospects and a resource base in the millions, Desert Gold is currently trading at CAD 0.085, giving it a market capitalization of only CAD 20.45 million. This means the market currently values each ounce of gold in the ground at between USD 9.26 and USD 13.70, depending on whether historical discoveries are included. This is extremely low given a gold price above USD 3,400 per ounce. This huge discrepancy, combined with the strategic location next to established producers and the upcoming corporate milestones, makes the explorer a highly interesting, albeit speculative, investment. Analysts at GBC see significant upside potential here and have assigned the stock a price target of CAD 0.425. The upcoming PEA report could be the decisive trigger for a revaluation. BP – Cheaply valued with lots of potential BP shares are caught in a valuation trap. While US giants such as Exxon and Chevron are trading at a price-to-earnings ratio of around 14, BP is listed at 11. Even the price-to-sales ratio of 0.4 is well below the industry average of 1.3. This gap seems excessive, but it is deterring many investors. The reason for this is years of uncertainty. First, the leap into renewable energies, then the return to the oil and gas business – this strategic rollercoaster ride has left its mark. Employees had to reorient themselves constantly, and internal friction was inevitable. But there are rays of hope. BP is now back on track in its core business. Billions of dollars are being invested in projects such as Kirkuk in Iraq, which aims to achieve significant production volumes, with over 3 billion barrels within reach alone. In the long term, this figure could be many times higher. At the same time, the Company is tackling its chronic cost problems. Thousands of external service providers have been let go, the Gelsenkirchen refinery is up for sale, and the Castrol brand could also bring in billions. The goal is to significantly reduce operating expenses by 2027 and to substantially reduce net debt from its current level of USD 27 billion. If this succeeds, cash flows will surge. The risks lie in oil price fluctuations, high debt, historical baggage from safety incidents, and weak cash generation compared to competitors. But this is precisely where the opportunity to double in value lies. The current valuation reflects almost exclusively the negative factors. If strategic clarity, ongoing cost reductions, and new major projects, such as the expansion of Shah Deniz in Azerbaijan, come together to form a coherent picture, the valuation gap could quickly narrow. That would be a boost for the share price. It is not without reason that Shell is interested in a takeover. The share is currently available for EUR 4.572. Plug Power is struggling with US regulations under the Trump administration but is pushing ahead with the industrial scaling of green hydrogen through major projects in Uzbekistan and Australia. Desert Gold shines as an undervalued explorer in Mali's gold belt, whose upcoming feasibility study and resource upgrade could trigger a massive revaluation. BP is using strategic clarity, cost discipline, and oil megaprojects such as Kirkuk to correct its low valuation and is even being touted as a takeover candidate.
