New York CNN —It’s been an exciting few weeks for the IPO market. People try to draw an analogy between the IPO market and a blocked pipe. That is one reason why the IPO market feels less stymied than it did 12 months ago. But if the current IPO market kicks off, it’s because of other macroeconomic factors. They’re going to very rapidly acquire customers and care much less about long term financial sustainability and climate and the environment.

According to the International Maritime Organization, shipping accounts for close to 3% of global annual emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. Yara International, one of the world’s biggest fertilizer makers, has joined forces with its subsidiary Yara Clean Ammonia and Norway’s North Sea Container Line to work on the ship, which will transport goods between Norway and Germany. However, Yara Clean Ammonia plans to provide a mix of “blue” and “green” ammonia for the Yara Eyde. In “blue” ammonia production, CO2 emissions are captured at the source and stored underground, while “green” ammonia is made using renewable electricity. In August last year, the company said it would launch the first carbon-neutral vessel by the first quarter of 2024.

Fertiliser boom reveals food security price power
  + stars: | 2023-02-08 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
LONDON, Feb 8 (Reuters Breakingviews) - A top fertiliser maker has emerged as the surprise winner of Europe’s energy crisis. Food security concerns helped Yara weather the crisis. That and a war in potash and wheat exporter Ukraine created scarcity, which drove up the price of its much-desired products. Before Wednesday’s 5% share bump, it traded on just 4 times its expected 2023 earnings. Now that Yara has proved it can weather a major crisis, this gap is likely to narrow.
The drop is not just because industrial companies are turning down thermostats, they are also shutting down plants that may never reopen. And while lower energy use helps Europe weather the crisis sparked by Russia's war in Ukraine and Moscow's supply cuts, executives, economists and industry groups warn its industrial base may end up severely weakened if high energy costs persist. Reuters GraphicsThe International Energy Agency estimates European industrial gas demand fell by 25% in the third quarter from a year earlier. "We are doing all we can to prevent a reduction in industrial activity," an European Commission spokesperson said in an email. "From Jan. 1, we will be able to switch to oil," company executive Wolfgang Ott said, as the company seeks government help to cushion energy costs.
But he told Reuters that Yara has no immediate plans to restart the curtailed production even though European spot gas prices have fallen steadily in recent weeks. "What we have seen with Yara in recent years is that they can get a superprofit from buying ammonia and upgrade it - high gas prices have been advantageous for Yara because they have such good flexibility," he said. Weighed down by soaring energy prices, Yara in August said it had slashed capacity utilisation at its European ammonia plants to just 35%, raising questions about the continent's ability to produce enough fertiliser for its crops. Yara said it expects to pay $540 million more for natural gas in the fourth quarter than a year earlier. Fertiliser prices have risen sharply over the past year, tracking higher energy costs.
