• Climate impact concerns are a defining issue, not only in the U.S. but around the world, with a new generation of innovators seeking to learn from past mistakes and better address the need for clean energy solutions
• Distributed energy solutions company Correlate Energy Corp. is successfully focusing on the most cost effective and efficient solar energy installation opportunities and clean energy infrastructure optimization
• As part of this, the company is also optimizing a renewable revenue stream by carefully retaining ownership of some of its energy systems while acquiring other renewable energy companies with proven capabilities
• The company’s average contract size is now about $2 million, and CIPI currently has about $150 million in-progress projects in various stages of development

Planetary climate change is increasingly viewed as the single most over-arching technological issue in need of a worldwide solution, but efforts to innovate and advance solutions are hampered by the need for cost-effective and workable startup-enterprise financing models.

In spite of initial challenges and missteps, progress is accelerating in the development of viable green solutions and associated business and financial models. In his analysis on innovation, Forbes Technology Council member Steve Smith recently argued that business investment in “this transformative field” must be more responsive to real-world conditions, such as the intermittent availability of wind and solar power sources, the imbalance between peak user demand and peak energy-generation, and the need to ensure that potential customers are motivated (https://ibn.fm/OPjYe).

Distributed energy solutions company Correlate Energy (OTCQB: CIPI) is advancing its superior cost-effective solutions for making solar power and other green energy solutions accessible from the ground up — working with baseline consumers and mid-tier companies that are often overlooked by larger forces in the sustainability market. Most of the company’s clients have portfolios with dozens of locations across the country that may need Correlate’s services.

Because many concerns regarding energy use revolve around site-specific buildings, Correlate Energy’s has focused on retrofitting existing commercial buildings with renewable energy solutions that improve a company’s carbon footprint and make overall energy consumption more efficient, while also ensuring financial arrangements that make the whole process eminently affordable.

Correlate Energy is moving to identify localized green energy solutions and microgrids that it can strategically finance, develop, and profitably sell to its customers, while also positioning itself to retain ownership of some of its energy systems and acquire other renewable energy companies with proven capabilities, allowing Correlate to scale its operations vertically for consistent revenue streams.

“We have a constant conveyor belt of a maturity of opportunities which allow us to smartly invest in different parts of the business,” Correlate Energy President and CEO Todd Michaels stated recently (https://ibn.fm/r8tMl).

“We have about $150 million of immediately actual projects that are (in) various stages of … development,” Michaels said in December (https://ibn.fm/OMJ3u). “About $22 million of those are, currently like, people are literally out there deployed onsite getting these projects completed. We have about another $50 million of projects that are fully contracted, that are mobilizing — they’re typically waiting for a utility approval, some permit, or are waiting for next summer to build versus building them in a place where we might be doing wintertime issues. So those are kind of the ready-to-go projects.”

Projects completed or newly announced in recent months include an up-to-40 MW Southern California microgrid project for a customer representing one of the state’s largest privately owned oil and gas corporations, a 5.2 MW solar energy installation project for a Pennsylvania-based stored energy solutions company, and rooftop solar energy systems for companies in North Carolina and Illinois.

• There are more cannabis dispensaries than McDonald’s outlets in the United States today, a reflection of the ongoing shift in consumer trends and legal frameworks across America
• Over 74% of Americans now live in a state which permits either, the medical or recreational consumption of marijuana
• Zoned Properties has emerged as an early leader in facilitating the transition of U.S. cannabis businesses towards developing a physical retail footprint with a portfolio of cannabis-focused investment properties across Arizona, Michigan and Illinois
• The company recently updated the market with the release of a positive set of FY 2023 annual results

In 2019, McDonald’s launched a nationwide marketing campaign across the nation entitled, ‘Around the world is now around the corner’ (https://ibn.fm/WRMCM). Celebrating the fact that some of the chain’s most popular global offerings were now easily found in everyone’s local participating McDonald’s, the campaign hinged on the seemingly ubiquitous availability and presence of the restaurant’s outlets across the United States. Remarkably and in representation of America’s rapidly changing attitude towards cannabis today, the number of cannabis dispensaries dotted across the United States have now surpassed those of McDonald’s Corp restaurants, a reflection of the United States’ dramatic and ongoing evolution in consumer trends and legal frameworks.

A recent study by the Pew Research Center have revealed that over half of Americans now live in areas permitting recreational cannabis use, a statistic made even more noteworthy as it comes only twelve years after Colorado and Washington led a landmark decision towards legalizing marijuana usage. Meanwhile, 74 percent of Americans reside in states where marijuana use, whether for recreational or medical purposes, is now legal – a shift which has driven to the establishment of nearly 15,000 cannabis dispensaries nationwide (https://ibn.fm/oZTmI).

“It’s all about location and good capitalization” explained Joe Lustberg, managing partner at Upwise Capital, which has been amongst the pioneers in financing the United States’ burgeoning cannabis industry. Retail has rapidly emerged as an essential sales vertical within the cannabis ecosystem, with cultivators and processors alike seeking viable outlets for their products.

Zoned Properties (OTCQB: ZDPY), a technology-driven property investment company focused on acquiring value-add real estate within the regulated cannabis industry in the United States, has been amongst the early leaders in facilitating the transition of the cannabis industry towards the physical retail space. The company maintains a portfolio of six investment properties located across Arizona, Michigan and Illinois; with each of its leased properties occupied by commercial cannabis-linked businesses, the company currently enjoys a 100% occupancy rate with a weighted average lease term of over 10 years. In addition to maintaining four properties leased and repurposed as regulated cannabis retail dispensaries, the company presently leases two properties which are operated as regulated cannabis cultivation and processing facilities.

Zoned Properties recently updated the market following the release of their annual financial results for 2023 (https://ibn.fm/vrcdq). The company revealed that top-line revenues had grown to $2.89 million in FY2023, representing an increase of 8.5 percent relative to the previous year. Meanwhile, operating expenses had marginally declined to $2.72 million compared to $2.77 million in FY2022, a year-over-year decrease of 1.9%. Zoned Properties also announced that its net losses had narrowed to $540,248 for the 2023 fiscal year, down from $574,355 the prior year.

Additionally, the company revealed that its operational results had enjoyed a marked acceleration in the latter half of the year, with fourth quarter 2023 revenues rising by 16.2 percent year over year with quarterly losses decreasing by -10.4 percent relative to the fourth quarter of 2022.

“As we reflect on our Full Year 2023 results and our recent strategic updates, it’s clear that Zoned Properties is firmly on a trajectory of sustainable growth and value creation,” said Bryan McLaren, Chief Executive Officer of Zoned Properties.

Furthermore, McLaren elaborated on the company’s decision to list its cultivation property located in Arizona’s Chino Valley for sale at a purchase price of $16 million; the proposed sale forms part of Zoned Properties’ ongoing move towards refocusing its efforts towards its core direct-to-consumer property assets, a shift which has seen the company recently acquire a further two investment properties for use as potential dispensary sites.

“The listing of our Chino Valley property is an important step unlocking the potential opportunity to raise significant non-dilutive capital and reflects our commitment to seizing market opportunities with a dedication to enhancing shareholder value,” he continued. “Our journey is guided by a clear vision: to utilize our property technology competitive advantages to drive scale and innovate within our industry, delivering tangible, long-term value to our shareholders. We’re excited about what the future holds and remain dedicated to our strategic growth path, and operational excellence as we move forward.”

• Canadian government recently announced investments exceeding $15 million to support the mining sector
• FNICF targets high-grade nickel sulfide discoveries at Albert Lake and Gochager Lake projects
• Albert Lake site includes historic Rottenstone mine, produced high-grade nickel, copper, and platinum group elements (“PGE”) from 1965 to 1969
• Historical drilling at Gochager Lake identified a resource of 4.2 million tons grading 0.29% nickel and 0.08% copper

The Canadian government recently announced investments exceeding $15 million to support the mining sector at the 2024 Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (“PDAC”) convention (https://ibn.fm/uhm31). The initiative aligns with Canada’s vision of becoming a leading supplier of resources powering clean technology while reinforcing the nation’s commitment to economic growth, innovation, and sustainability.

“Critical minerals are a generational economic opportunity for Canada — from mineral exploration and extraction to advanced manufacturing to processing and recycling, we are making investments across the value chain,” said The Honorable Jonathan Wilkinson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources. “Canada will continue to make these strategic investments in important projects and Indigenous communities to help enable and grow the sustainable development of these minerals, reinforcing Canada’s position as a global supplier of choice for clean technology, clean energy and the resources the world needs to build a prosperous net-zero economy.”

Fathom Nickel (CSE: FNI) (FSE: 6Q5) (OTCQB: FNICF), an energy metals company based in Calgary, Alberta, advances exploration projects in Saskatchewan’s Trans Hudson Corridor with the aim of carving out a strategic spot within the country’s burgeoning minerals supply chain.

Fathom is currently targeting high-grade nickel sulfide discoveries at their Gochager Lake Project.

 Find a quote on Gochager for here The Gochager Lake Project represents another significant opportunity for Fathom to expand its exploration efforts and potentially make high-grade nickel discoveries. Spanning a total land area of 22,620 hectares, the project includes the recently acquired Watt’s Lake property and additional staked claims.

Historical drilling conducted in 1966-1967 identified a resource of 4.2 million tons grading 0.29% nickel and 0.08% copper (https://ibn.fm/qvhrh). Further, Fathom’s exploration activities at the site revealed robust off-hole borehole electromagnetic responses in several drill holes, suggesting the presence of multiple high-grade nickel-copper-cobalt chutes. With plans for additional surface geophysical programs, continued drilling, and comprehensive exploration activities, Fathom aims to further delineate and potentially expand the project while identifying additional mineralization throughout the site.

Fathom is led by an experienced management team with extensive expertise in the mining and exploration sectors. As the demand for nickel rises from the growing EV industry, FNICF aims to secure a position in Canada’s rapidly expanding mining sector and critical minerals supply chain.

• Experts project demand for copper is set to rise in coming years
• Increased demand from power generation, EVs and electronic devices may push the copper supply deficit to 6.5 million MT
• “We are excited about this significant exploration program at Storm,” said Aston Bay CEO Thomas Ullrich

In a space projected to see significant growth and demand in the coming decade, Canadian minerals exploration company Aston Bay Holdings (TSX.V: BAY) (OTCQB: ATBHF) is focused on establishing a strong foothold. As an explorer of high-grade copper and gold deposits in North America, the company is beginning an aggressive exploration program focused on immediate resource growth and testing of large-scale copper exploration targets (https://ibn.fm/rQ59y).

“Copper is the third-most-used metal in the world, and experts believe demand for this important commodity is set to rise in the coming years,” reported a recent Investing News Network (“INN”) article (https://ibn.fm/VSznK). “The copper price saw strong gains in the early part of 2023 before sinking through the year’s second and third quarters. However, growth in Q4 allowed it close out the year close to its starting price.”

Long-term projections for the copper space indicate a significant increase in demand for the red metal. “By 2031, McKinsey expects demand from power generation, EVs and electronic devices to push the copper supply deficit to 6.5 million MT,” the INN article noted. “Market participants are particularly interested in copper’s usage in EVs. With many governments looking to eliminate the sale of internal combustion engine vehicles in the next 15 to 20 years, demand for EVs is going to make up an increasing portion of global car sales. Currently, EVs use between 38.5 and 83 kilograms of copper per vehicle. And even with new innovations, which analysts anticipate will reduce the average amount of copper per vehicle to 55 to 65 kilograms, the amount of copper needed across an estimated 40 million EVs by 2030 will still be significant.”

INN further noted that copper needed for constructing utility-scale power generation would add to demand as well. “According to the Copper Development Association, solar installations require about 5.5 MT of copper for every megawatt, while onshore wind turbines require 3.52 MT of copper and offshore wind turbines require 9.56 MT of copper,” the article reports. “In order to meet demand for renewables amid ambitious climate goals, the International Renewable Energy Agency says an average of 1,000 gigawatts will need to be added annually through 2030.”

With that backdrop, the exploration program starting at Aston Bay Holding’s Storm Copper Project comes at an ideal time. The field program, which started last month, includes an extensive 22,000 meters reverse circulation (“RC”) and diamond drilling program focused on several key components, including:

• testing the extensions of the mineralized zones at Storm
• resource definition of known high-grade copper (“Cu”) discoveries at several zones at Storm
• exploring for new high-grade copper zones along strike and below the existing prospects and copper discoveries
• exploring along the prospective 100-kilometer copper belt including the Blizzard, Tornado and Tempest prospects

In addition, the company noted that high-resolution surface electromagnetic (“EM”) surveys are planned at its underexplored Blizzard, Tornado and Tempest Prospect areas; the company is also continuing work on its permitting roadmap, with environmental, mining and metallurgical studies underway.

“We are excited about this significant exploration program at Storm,” said Aston Bay CEO Thomas Ullrich. “Our partner American West is fully financed and currently coordinating mobilization in order to conduct the 2024 resource expansion and exploration program. Geophysics and 22,000 meters of planned drilling will focus on expanding the known areas of near-surface, high-grade copper mineralization at several prospects at Storm, as well as continuing to explore for new targets at depth and along strike over the almost-100-kilometer prospective trend for sediment-hosted copper mineralization.”

Aston Bay is a publicly traded mineral exploration company exploring for high-grade copper and gold deposits in Virginia state and Nunavut territory in Canada. The company is currently exploring the high-grade Buckingham Gold Vein in central Virginia and is in advanced stages of negotiation on other lands with high-grade copper potential in the area.

• Temporary railroad shutdowns in December 2023 stranded nearly 10,000 rail cars on both sides of the U.S. and Mexico border with embargoed goods on over 60 trains
• With disruptions to cross-border trade on the rise, companies are seeking more reliable ways to organize, facilitate, and monitor their cross-border shipments
• Fr8Tech, a tech company on a mission to revolutionize cross-border shipping, has positioned itself as the go-to brand for such services through its Fr8App system
• Fr8App seamlessly connects shippers with carriers and drivers, and offers comprehensive real-time tracking, fleet management, live pricing, and transportation management

The ongoing migrant crisis has exposed the downsides of reliance on America’s railroad network (https://ibn.fm/CwfUV). Two international railway crossing bridges in Texas were temporarily shut down in December 2023 following a reported surge in smuggling of migrants through Mexico by train.  The shutdown stranded nearly 10,000 rail cars on both sides of the border, with goods embargoed on over 60 trains every day of the closure (https://ibn.fm/BgyXU).

Situations like these have highlighted the value of a reliable and dependable way to organize, facilitate, and monitor cross-border shipments, especially within the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement) region. Freight Technologies (NASDAQ: FRGT) (“Fr8Tech”), a tech company that is transforming cross-border shipping by offering carriers and shippers unmatched flexibility, visibility, and simplicity, has been at the forefront of pushing for such services, mainly through its Fr8App system that has proven its reliability and versatility over time.

Most recently, Fr8App was selected by Envases Universales, one of the world’s largest packaging companies, to help manage transportation needs over the next 12 months. Fr8App will cover 24 dedicated routes, mainly from Mexico to the US, estimated to be worth more than $5 million (https://ibn.fm/Q5BKa). The company also marked its second year working with Amazon Mexico, a testament to its commitment to meeting customers’ needs and its continuous platform improvements.

“Our commitment to meeting customers’ needs and our continuous platform improvements have led to this exciting opportunity,” noted Javier Selgas, Fr8Tech’s CEO (https://ibn.fm/vJ0t2).

These achievements validate Fr8Tech’s offerings and their ability to offer a viable alternative to companies’ reliance on the railroad network. They also point to the power of technology and how it allows previously unattainable levels of flexibility, cost savings, and overall reliability for USMCA cross-border shipping. The Fr8App is supported by artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning, and cloud computing, providing an unrivaled freight-matching platform with a real-time portal for B2B cross-border and domestic shipping. With Fr8App, connecting shippers with carriers and drivers is efficient and seamless (https://ibn.fm/lq8oM).

Railway closures on US-Mexico border crossings might be inevitable in the current political environment.  However, the accompanying delays and financial impact to shippers need not be.  Fr8App understands the complexities of cross-border logistics and knows that disruptions, such as railway closures, might occur.  The company helps its customers navigate the process, providing business continuity and peace of mind.

As more challenges to cross-border trade emerge, Fr8Tech’s importance will become more pronounced.  The company has already positioned itself as the go-to brand for cross-border shipping solutions in the USMCA region and is poised to strengthen its market position in 2024.
