The momentum behind ammonia as a decarbonisation solution continues to build. High gas prices, a global energy crunch and government subsidies have accelerated blue and green (low-emissions) ammonia project developments. But this is met by consternation among some market watchers, who cite inefficiencies and technical limitations as reasons why, they claim, low-emissions ammonia is an overhyped misallocation of capital. In this webinar, we delve into both sides of the argument and present our view on the evolution, opportunities and challenges of this nascent market.

Why attend?
• Gain an independent view on the arguments for and against ammonia as a decarbonisation solution.
• Understand the touted role of low-emissions ammonia as a marine fuel, hydrogen carrier, power source and low carbon fertilizer.
• The outlook for projects across the world and updates on financing and permitting developments.
• Detail on how this market may be valued in the future, and gain insight into CRU’s new weekly low-emissions ammonia price. 
• Q&A – providing you the opportunity to interact with our analysts and discuss their deep research into this market.

Ammonia in the energy transition – grappling with the hope, hype and hysteria

Electrification is the biggest disruption for the automotive industry in 100 years, with electric vehicles surpassing combustion engine vehicles in key markets. 

Apart from step changes to technology, supplier landscape and raw material costs, electrification is also fundamentally changing the way raw materials are consumed for vehicle.

CRU and A2MAC1 together are providing key insights on how material compositions in components such as the body and the powertrain are shifting, and how this affects the overall material cost baseline of vehicles now and in the future.

A2MAC1 & CRU : The electrifying cost of EV Materials!

COP27 officially started under the theme of “together for implementation”. The last negotiation saw a raft of headline grabbing commitments and pledges but little detail about how these could be hit. Since then, governments and corporations have come under increased pressure to provide detailed transition pathways.  COP27 was billed as the time when the global community delivered specifics on how these targets would be met and funded.  So, has COP27 made progress and will it be judged as a success or failure?

Join CRU for a round table discussion with our biggest takeaways from COP27. Hear answers to questions including:
• Will COP27 be judged as a success or failure? 
• What are the key takeaways?
• What progress has been made?

COP27– What has changed and why it matters

Significant changes have taken place in the US and European sheet markets versus a year ago. Prices have fallen, but so has steel production. As these markets face a challenging economic environment, we will provide insight for buyers and sellers of steel in 2023.

Join our steel metal experts during this webinar as they discuss and answer these questions:  
How do prices look in 2023 versus both 2021 and 2022?
What is the CRU View for demand and supply in the year ahead?
What are the key risks CRU sees for the 2023 market?

Dramatic changes in the EU & US steel market will affect contract negotiations

The CRU Breakfast returned this year on the 25th of October during LME week. 

Our analysts and experts were available to discuss the critical issues, challenges, and opportunities in the commodity markets.

The CRU Main Session Summary 

Inflation has reached multi-decade highs in the US and in Europe. Food and energy prices have rocketed, leading to a collapse in consumer confidence and headwinds for commodity demand.

The energy crunch is far from ending – high prices will remain. Volatility is set to intensify amid a precarious geopolitical environment.

Commodity and metals markets are deeply exposed. The prevalent recession risks could severely dampen demand. But inventories are low. Supply is exposed to fast changing terms of trade. Under-investment will bite.

The CRU breakfast will provide insights into the implications of high energy prices and inflation on commodity and metals markets, while answering. 

How will commodity producer costs and margins change in this new environment?

What is the impact on downstream consumers?

Who are the regional winners and losers?

How does bipolarity change commodity trade flows?

Does this slow or accelerate the energy transition?

CRU Breakfast Main Session 2022 LME Week

If COP26 was about commitments, then COP27 will need to focus on implementation. 

CRU expects that the negotiations will be fraught. Governments will be under pressure to make even more ambitious commitments at COP27. However, faced with high inflation rates, major fiscal pressures, global conflict and the energy crisis, significant breakthroughs will be hard to achieve, especially in terms of binding – and potentially costly – emission reduction goals.

The cost of this inaction now will disproportionately fall on hard-to-abate sectors with high emissions in the future.

The webinar will answer the following questions:
• What are the likely key priorities and difficulties at COP27?
• What has changed since COP26?
• What are the implications of COP27 for commodity markets and hard-to-decarbonise sectors?

Where next for climate policy discussions at COP27?

This year, LME metal prices slumped by between 25% and 55% in the months after March and April, as concerns grew over the global macroeconomic outlook and investors took flight from metals. While some LME prices have since rallied, the outlook for the major metal markets for 2023 remains highly uncertain. 
Significant risks to global metals demand persist as the Fed’s efforts to combat rising inflation in the US could throw the economy into a meaningful recession, while the looming energy crisis in Europe during the winter months, and continued war in Ukraine, could ignite a much more severe downturn in the region. 
Elsewhere, China is exposed to the inflation and growth problems in the rest of the world, but it also has its own domestic concerns headed by the government’s zero Covid-19 policy. Additionally, restoring confidence in the all-important residential property sector will be key.
And what of supply for 2023? The combination of lower metal prices, the deepening energy crisis, mine project ramp-ups and cost increases suggest production disruptions and cutbacks could remain high next year. 

Join us for this must-see pre-LME Week webinar and listen to CRU’s metal experts providing their answers to the following crucial questions:
• How will the major global developments outlined above shape global market balances and the path of LME metal prices in 2023?
• What are the major upside and downside risks to watch out for?

Please share your questions with us and join the webinar for this exciting discussion.

CRU’s pre-LME Week Webinar – What’s in store for the LME Metals in 2023?

The fertilizer market has been upended over 2021/22. Soaring gas prices, war in Ukraine, droughts, floods and a tense geopolitical environment have all contributed to volatile prices across nitrogen, phosphate and potash.

The paradox of ESG data is that much of the data must come from the sites themselves- this is the source- yet producers find it difficult to produce a standardised metric that can be used to compare to against their competitors on a like-by-like basis. 

While this is a common problem faced by all regulated industries, it is a particular challenge for hard-to-abate sectors like aluminium, steel, and nitrogen. Given the scale and complexity of the challenge, hard-to-abate industries need to get their data to relay a complex message to investors, buyers, suppliers, governments, and other stakeholders. 

The pressure put on supplies of energy commodities by the Ukraine war has added to the pressure. At the same time, the data must be trusted if it is to be used. GHG emissions have been arguably easy to standardise and build trust in, but other dimensions of sustainability are also important: can we shut our eyes to them just because they are hard to measure?

In this webinar, Charlie Durant, Research Manager, CRU Sustainability, Chris Bayliss, Director of Standards, Aluminium Stewardship Initiative, and Bruce Alway, Director-Metals Research, Refinitiv, will get together with Lavan Mahadeva, Research Director, CRU Group, to explain why we need to get behind all efforts to standardise and build trust in the data, to illustrate the power of good ESG data and to explore how this might be collectively achieved.

Building trust in ESG in hard to abate aluminium sector

The pent-up demand that has been building in the automotive supply chain is going to be unleashed just as gas prices in the US hit $5 per gallon. US automobile consumers may turn to the emerging EV market to satisfy the itch for a new vehicle while trying to avoid $100 per fill-up at the gas pumps. The EV demand, and with it, EV battery demand will fire-up quickly.

Is the automotive supply chain in the Americas region ready for these new challenges and how will it impact the commodity markets? What are the expectations of commodity consumption through 2023 by the automotive market?

During this webinar, CRU experts from the aluminium, steel, and base-metals markets will appraise the latest developments, challenges, and issues in the Automotive sector and answer questions from the audience.

The complimentary live webinar includes discussion and Q&A, addressing the following topics: 
1. The automotive supply chain is improving, will it return to pre-Covid build rates? 
2. Wire and cable found new applications in EVs, what does this mean to copper/aluminium demand outlook? 
3. The automotive industry is moving from ‘just in time’ to ‘just in case’, how will the supply chain cope with the changes?

The session will be hosted by Aaron Pollock, Vice President of Sales - The Americas, with speakers Steve Williamson, Research Manager - Aluminium, Josh Spoores, Principal Analyst – Steel, and Chenfei Wang, Senior Analyst – Base Metals.

Supply chain challenges in the automotive sector: Impact on the commodity market
