Bull points
- Our goal is to confirm over 2,500 orders in 2023 and approximately 4,700 in 2024.
- We've secured over 14 million in grants and plan to hear back shortly on additional programs, as Frederico mentioned, in C5 in Portugal and also the PERTE program in Spain, which we've already been notified of awards.
- Fusion's technology is rapidly reducing its levelized cost of hydrogen to under $3 per kilogram before subsidies in 2023, and likely well below that in regions with superior solar radiance, such as California, Southern California, or Southwest USA.
Bear points
- We recognize that a development focused approach is capital intensive. And as a result, we are working on multiple solutions to secure equity capital from infrastructure funds and exploring project financing alternatives.
- In the second quarter, we recorded an operating loss of 4.8 million euros, of which 4 million euros are related to operating expenses.
