If you're looking to gain an understanding of how the steel industry is transforming, then this episode of "Freight Up" is for you. Hello, we're Jess and Davide, and we welcome you back to another insightful episode of Freight Up – your go-to podcast for the latest in freight and commodity markets from Freight Investor Services or as some of us know us, FIS. In our latest episode, we're diving into the dynamic world of electric arc furnaces (EAFs) and their impact on the US steel market. As we're joined by Ali Oktay, a Senior Analyst at S&P Global Commodity Insights, alongside our other expert guests, we'll be dissecting how the shift to EAFs is adding new steel capacity in the US and reshaping the market landscape. EAFs have been pivotal in transitioning the US steel market, adding about 20 million tons of EAF sheet melting capacity since 2017, and they offer several economic and operational benefits, including quicker production adjustments and potential lower production costs. This episode is set to provide you with deep insights into how these developments are pushing pricing ceilings and influencing future trends across global markets.One key takeaway beyond the innovation of EAFs is how global market trends and trade policies are influencing demand and supply within the US steel market. Ali discusses how recurring themes, such as trade policy, play fundamental roles in reshaping competitive contexts for US steel.

In this episode of The SAF Podcast, we dive deep into Australia's emerging sustainable aviation fuel landscape with Mac Irvine, CFO of Jet Zero Australia. With 15 years of banking and finance expertise, including his role at the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC), Irvine offers unique insights into Australia's SAF development landscape. The discussion explores Jet Zero Australia's two flagship projects: Project Ulysses, an alcohol-to-jet facility in Townsville utilizing LanzaJet technology, and Project Mandala, a HEFA pathway development in partnership with Apeiron Bioenergy.Our conversation moves into the strategic alliances that fuel Jet Zero's mission, including a key partnership with Idemitsu and the pursuit of innovative financial avenues such as SAF certificates for carbon abatement. With $14 million in grant funding already secured, Mac explains how Jet Zero is engaging with entities like the CEFC and the National Reconstruction Fund to explore flexible capital options. Key industry insights include Australia's position as the eighth-largest global jet fuel consumer, with 90% of current fuel being imported. The episode provides valuable insights into the nascent SAF market in Australia, including the current lack of specific SAF policies and the challenges this presents for developers. However, Mac also outlines the positive momentum, such as the federal government's Future Made in Australia program and its potential impact on the industry.If you enjoyed this episode, check out our previous discussion with Sophie Byron, S&P Global Commodity Insights to find out about the complexity and importance of accurate SAF pricing data: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2202964/episodes/15975107SAF Investor London - January 2025SAF Investor London will be back in London in January 2025 and will bring leading producers, investors, customers and policy makers together to discuss the major issues around scaling SAF production globally.

On this week's episode of the SAF Podcast Sophie Byron, Global Head Biofuels Pricing, S&P Global Commodity Insights joins Oscar for a discussion around SAF pricing.Tracking SAF prices is not as simple as traditional jet fuel. In a nascent market with complex supply chain and production pathways, getting accurate pricing data is no easy feat. Sophie explains this complexity and the challenge addressing issues across fluctuating feedstock pricing, production costs and limited transactions on the spot market and how they work around these to assess accurate prices. Another critical issue is how to approach pricing SAF from different pathways and feedstocks, Sophie explains how they are looking to approach pricing from Alcohol-to-Jet and eventually Power-to-Liquid production, in the near term as well as the current HEFA pathway.Pricing is a critical issue to help grow SAF production as it is critical to help attract investment. Investors and lenders need certainty in revenue and, along with offtakes, certainty in SAF prices is critical to de-risk future projects. We also discuss the correlation of emissions reduction and Carbon Intensity scores and pricing as SAF's value can be tied to the emissions reductions. We also look at how factors such as anti dumping duties, tax incentives in the US and the introduction of mandates in 2025 could effect pricing formulations. The discussion concludes with a reflection on transparency and how important access to data is to get the clearest pricing picture possible. Check out this episode if you are interested in how SAF pricing works, the challenges it presents and critically why pricing is such an important component in growing the SAF Industry.If you enjoyed this episode, check out our most recent discussion with Andrew Symes, OXCCU here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2202964/episodes/15895179

Despite frequent pronouncements that the world should stop using coal, it still consumes vast amounts of black rocks. According to the Energy Institute's Statistical Review of World Energy, coal's global primary energy consumption was about 15% above natural gas in 2022 and only 15% lower than crude oil. Coal consumption has yet to decline. Instead, coal use has plateaued for the better part of the last decade. Because of its carbon intensity and large consumption, Peter and Jackie describe coal as the “herd of elephants” in the room for meeting aggressive decarbonization and climate goals under the 2015 Paris Agreement. This week, our guest is Lara Dong, Senior Director, Global Coal Research, S&P Global Commodity Insights. Lara explains why coal demand has been resilient and what to expect in the future. Here are some of the questions Peter and Jackie ask Lara: Is coal consumption expected to stay strong? Why is China still building new coal power plants? How does this compare to clean electricity additions in China, including wind, solar, and hydro? Is there still ongoing new investment in coal mines to add supply? Why was 2021 a pivotal year for Chinese energy policy? How did the 2022 energy crisis impact China's and India's energy policy for coal? Do you think the IEA Net Zero scenario, which assumes a 90% drop in coal consumption by 2050, is likely? If Canada were to increase its LNG exports to Asia, would this decrease coal consumption (and greenhouse gas emissions) in the region?

"McKinsey, BCG and S&P Global Commodity Insights project electricity demand tied to data centers to increase at a CAGR of 15% through 2030." “Booming AI demand threatens global electricity supply (FT)”. Media and consultants have recently raised the alarm about the unquenchable energy thirst of AI and datacentres. Can we believe those predictions or is it another scaremongering wave like we saw 15 years ago, when prophets predicted that the internet would soon consume 50% of the world power?Laurent and Gerard prefer to go directly to the source. So, we have invited Michael Terrell, Senior Director Energy and Climate at Google. Google is one of the Top 5 purchasers of Green Electricity in the world, and Michael is one of the key architects for providing 24/7 green power to their 28 datacenters around the world.With Michael, we analyse why datacenters consume so much energy. We also discuss why the overall grid has not melted down despite ominous predictions a decade ago, as energy efficiency improvements have been spectacular. We talk about fostering the purchase of green energy and especially 24/7. We discuss new tech, whether software (Tapestry) or hardtech (geothermal, nuclear, LDES) and why Google and others BigTech are fostering them. Finally, we discuss the development of AI and its impact on the future demand.All in all, a great discussion but more importantly a very optimistic dialogue, where we see that we – the Energy Transition Brotherhood – are a force for good and we will defeat – easily – the old guard of fossil fuel lobbyists and scaremongers.

The threat of a wider Middle East war is increasing. Over the past weekend, Iran attacked Israel with missiles and drones in retaliation for Israel's suspected strike on Iran's embassy in Syria. This week, our guest, Raoul LeBlanc, Vice President, Energy, S&P Global Commodity Insights, explains why oil prices have increased over the past few months, including the impact of the growing conflict in the Middle East, OPEC+, and US shale oil growth. Jackie and Peter also asked Raoul about recent research by Prof. Robert Howarth from Cornell University. The paper, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, concludes that US LNG could be comparable to, or even worse than, coal from a GHG emissions perspective when methane leaking is considered. A BNN article reported that Howarth's paper influenced President Biden's pause on LNG approvals. Finally, Raoul explains the drivers for US oil and gas producers' recent mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and if this trend could come to Canada.

In the past several weeks, Brent oil prices have risen by more than 8%. And they're set to rise further as Saudi Arabia and Russia extend oil export cuts. Earlier this week Saudi Arabia and Russia extended voluntary oil supply cuts to year end, with the Saudi cutting by 1 million barrels per day and Russia cutting 300,000 bpd. These were on top of the April cut agreed by several OPEC+ producers running to the end of 2024. Some traders speculate crude to rally towards the $100 rally. But is that too optimistic?

Oil has posted a modest decline in recent days amid signs that supplies are rebounding while concerns linger about demand in China, the world's biggest crude importer. Observed exports from Iran have surged to 2.2 million barrels a day this month, and Turkey and Iraq have held a sudden flurry of talks as they seek to restart a major oil pipeline. Efforts by OPEC+ linchpins Saudi Arabia and Russia to curb production have tightened the market. However, the demand outlook in China is clouded, and there are signs US interest rates will need to stay higher for longer to rein in inflation. So will oil prices rally again?

Gas price hikes are a daily conversation and the exorbitant price of fuel is literally hyper-fueling inflation. The last time we saw conditions like this was the 1970s which gave rise to a new product — “Gasohol.” From there, came the ethanol boom and biodiesel. But diesel from soybeans never really gained traction. And ethanol fueled the “no food for fuel” debates that have arisen with every food price increase. So, what is the future of Ag-based biofuel in a world pushing electric vehicles and “green energy?” Pete Meyer with S&P Global Commodity Insights delivers insights and information about the future of biofuel and frankly, it looks pretty darn good! Renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel — if you haven't heard of these two products and what they may do to the Ag landscape, listen up!! Sponsored by Nori nori.com and Pattern Ag pattern.ag

Renewable diesel isn't the same as biodiesel because it's made from a variety of oil seed crops and it's not blended with fossil fuel. Why does any of this matter to American farmers? Because renewable diesel has the potential to gobble up trainloads of soybeans, increase demand for alternative crops such as Canola and Camelina, and improve the environment. Pete Meyer, head of grain, oilseed, and advanced feedstocks analytics for S&P Global Commodity Insights discusses the potential of renewable diesel and what it may mean for farmers. So far, some of the biggest names in fossil fuels are on board. Presented By Advanced Drainage Systems
American farmers will plant about 90 million acres of corn in 2022. Approximately 35% of that corn will find its way to an ethanol plant. In frank terms, ethanol has been good for corn farmers. But how long will ethanol demand persist amid the proliferation of electric vehicles combined with growing sentiment opposed to ethanol? Pete Meyer, head of grain, oilseed, and advanced feedstocks analytics with S&P Global Commodity Insights discusses the future of ethanol and corn demand to explain how it will impact corn producers.
