  • Koenigsegg to Embark on Evolutionary Journey for Future Growth
    Koenigsegg to embark on evolutionary journey for future growth Press release 29 January 2019, Ängelholm, Sweden Koenigsegg AB is forming a strategic partnership with NEVS AB, enabling the development of parallel vehicle models in slightly higher volumes with emphasis on electrification, as well as strengthening growth opportunities in the hyper car segment. NEVS is making a capital injection of EUR 150 million, thereby taking a 20 percent minority stake in Koenigsegg’s parent company. Additionally, the parties are forming a joint venture to expand into new market segments where NEVS AB is contributing USD 150 million in starting capital for a 65 percent stake and Koenigsegg obtains 35 percent by contributing primarily with intellectual property, technology licenses, and product design. The partnership will deepen an already existing collaboration between Koenigsegg and NEVS, creating synergies between their geographical footprints, experiences and competencies. Koenigsegg already has a distinguished unique market position for hyper cars, and through the additional joint venture NEVS and Koenigsegg are partnering up to develop a product for new and untapped segments, leveraging both of the companies’ strengths. Through NEVS production facilities in Trollhättan, Koenigsegg will access additional capabilities as well as benefiting from the extensive automotive knowledge in the region, whilst maintaining their centre of excellence in Ängelholm. Alongside NEVS capacity for production in Trollhättan and China, NEVS through its majority owner Evergrande, has a wide distribution platform and channels through ownership in one of China’s largest car retailers. “Koenigsegg is breaking new ground, capitalising on our unique technology, performance track record and market position to explore and develop new products.

Box 600 SE 40530 Gothenburg, Sweden All rights reserved No part of this master thesis may be reproduced without prior written permission from the authors Acknowledgements First of all, we would like to thank our supervisor Evangelos Bourelos for his patience and effort in providing us with meaningful advice throughout these months of intense research. We would also like to express our appreciation and gratitude towards all our respondents who have allocated their valuable time to help us interpret this interesting case. Your passion, knowledge and commitment guided us through this journey, and we have enjoyed every single day of it. Finally, we would like to thank our peer students and all the people close to us for your support during our years of university studies. Without you, this would not have been possible. ABSTRACT This master thesis is addressing the case of Saab Automobile AB, creating a full historical reconstruction using primarily extensive quotes derived from semi-structured interviews with former Saab employees and other relevant actors. The aim is to depict and discuss the roots behind the company’s historically unique capabilities and its trajectory towards failure, together with the influence of General Motors’ ownership in this detrimental process.

  • Carbonomics the Rise of Clean Hydrogen
    EQUITY RESEARCH | July 8, 2020 | 11:34PM BST Carbonomics The Rise of Clean Hydrogen Clean hydrogen has a major role to play in the path towards net zero carbon, providing de-carbonization solutions in the most challenging parts of the Carbonomics cost curve - including long-haul transport, steel, chemicals, heating and long-term power storage. Clean hydrogen cost competitiveness is also closely linked to cost deflation and large scale developments in renewable power and carbon capture (two key technologies to produce it), creating three symbiotic pillars of de-carbonization. Clean hydrogen is gaining strong political and business momentum, emerging as a major component in governments' net zero plans such as the European Green Deal. This is why we believe that the hydrogen value chain deserves serious focus after three false starts in the past 50 years. Hydrogen is very versatile, both in its production and consumption: it is light, storable, has high energy content per unit mass and can be readily produced at an industrial scale. The key challenge comes from the fact that hydrogen (in its ambient form as a gas) is the lightest element and so has a low energy density per unit of volume, making long-distance transportation and storage complex and costly. In this report we analyze the clean hydrogen company ecosystem, the cost competitiveness of green and blue hydrogen in key applications and its key role in Carbonomics: the green engine of economic recovery.

  • Introducing the GS Net Zero Carbon Models and Sector Frameworks
    June 23, 2021 | 9:50PM BST Carbonomics Introducing the GS net zero carbon models and sector frameworks We present our modeling of the paths to net zero carbon, with two global models of de-carbonization by sector and technology, leveraging our Carbonomics cost curve. We present a scenario consistent with the Paris Agreement’s goal to keep global warming well below 2°C (GS <2.0°), and a more aspirational path, aiming for global net zero by 2050, consistent with limiting global warming to 1.5°C (GS 1.5°). We expect a cumulative US$56 tn of green infrastructure investments to net zero, reaching >2% of GDP by 2032 in the GS 1.5° scenario. Renewable power is at the heart of the energy transformation, supporting the abatement of c.50% of global CO2 emissions, leading global power demand to triple by 2050. However, a broader ecosystem of technologies will be needed: we estimate that the hydrogen market could increase 7-fold by 2050, to >500 Mtpa, while carbon capture grows from c.40 MtCO2 currently to >7,000 MtCO2 pa, and carbon offsets (mostly natural sinks, but also Direct Air Carbon Capture) contribute c.15% of de-carbonization for the harder-to-abate sectors. Both scenarios imply peak oil demand by 2025, but we still see the need for new oil mega-project start-ups until 2030 or 2035 on GS 1.5° and GS <2.0°, because of decline rates. Gas demand peaks in 2030 in the GS 1.5° scenario, but has a critical role as a transition fuel in the GS <2.0° path, with growing demand until 2037.
