Gloomy financial news to start 2016, BUT there are some interesting sparks to start the year.
While Tesla/Musk are getting lots of PR on batteries for storage and electric vehicles and losing buckets of money, Electrovaya, a Mississauga headquartered, TSE listed, lithium Ion Battery systems company (wwwelectrovaya.com TSE- EA) became profitable in Q4 2105. Electrovaya have active relationships around the world in:
1. Battery storage systems for stationary power and smart grid, particularly in Japan but also in Europe and Toronto. http://www.electrovaya.com/pdf/marketing/Electrovaya_presentation.pdf
2. Clean Transportation batteries for electric vehicles with Tata Motors and Dailmer-Mercedes & Smart Cars. Try an electric Smart Car at Car2Go the world’s largest car sharing company in Toronto or Vancouver. You can also try and get a space ride with NASA who work with Electrovaya.
Titanium Corporation, an Alberta company, over 10 plus years, has developed and built commercial processes that recover value from oil sands tailings, making the waste water reusable and cleaning up the tar sands dumping ponds. The oil sands are one of the world’s largest oil reservoirs but have a bad world environmental reputation. The oil industry has danced around Titanium Corporation solutions preferring to continue polluting, but there is a new government in Alberta that has put a value on carbon and made a commitment to clean up the oil sands reputation.
Titanium Corp can recover valuable Zircon from waste streams. High value, Zircon containing compounds are found in jet engines, hip and knee replacement parts, and dental implants. Titanium Corp. can take the USA EPA banned bitumen residue out of the oil sands. www.titaniumcorporation.com
The Financial Post January 6th reports that “Alberta’s new carbon tax policy has sent oil and gas companies flocking to clean tech companies like Titanium Corp as a way to save money…”. Flocking is also the patented process that Titanium Corp uses to recover value from waste and get the Alberta oil sands on side with climate change.
