The search for alternatives to Russian natural gas is in full swing. Even before the march into Ukraine, some stakeholders had been advocating the import of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the USA – as an alternative to Nord Stream 2.

At the stock exchange, you may get the feeling that all companies dealing in fuel cells and hydrogen technologically and as a business model are one group moving in parallel, as expressed in the trend of their stock prices. However, this is far too undifferentiating, because the companies rely on completely different business strategies.
