On Thursday, the QIX Germany lists a good 0.9 % in the red on Thursday at 17,135 points. After the boom year 2024, plant makers GEA plans to rely more on “sustainable” solutions and thus increase sales by 2030 by 5.0 % annually. From 2030, RWE plans to deliver around 30,000 tons of green hydrogen to the refinery of total energy in Leuna over 15 years annually, and thus contribute to reducing CO2 emissions there.
The GEA Group share recently showed a considerable performance run in the quality index, which gave up at 56.60 euros on Thursday, but climbed at the highest annual stand this week. This positive development in the papers of the machine and plant manufacturer had already indicated last year. Especially after the management had communicated ambitious goals by 2030 in October on a capital market day, which were enthusiastically accepted by investors. This week, GEA has now also presented final balance sheet figures for 2024, which were more than convincing. Contrary to the general industry trend, sales and profit had grown. In addition, the provider of systems and components for the Pharmaceutical industry As well as the food and beverage industry, its destinations originally set for 2026 2 years earlier than planned. And the projection is still projection that GEA wants to grow by more than 5.0 % annually by the end of the decade of sales, the operational profit should increase even more. With the new growth plans, the Digitization and the sale of systems with less CO2 emissions are driven. Last year, the group of companies increased its revenues by almost 1.0 % to a good 5.4 billion euros. And GEA did not lack orders either. After all, the order intake grew by 1.5 % to 5.55 billion euros in the last 12 months.
Accordingly, machines for dairies and the food and medicine industry were particularly in demand. The portfolio includes production facilities for beer breweries, milking robots or feeding systems and freezer dryers. For 2025, the board of directors for GEA also expects a increase in sales of up to 4.0 %, even if US tariffs standing in the room should come into play. Because the plant manufacturer’s manager currently assumes that possible customs increases in America could be passed on to customers. Gea`s ambitious goals of wanting to increase cash inflow from 2024 to 2030 with the help of cost reductions to a good 4.0 billion euros is strong. The recent return on equity should recently increase from 32.7 to more than 45.0 %, which would be really outstanding. GEA shareholders can also look forward to a dividend of EUR 1.15 higher for 2024, but the capital yield is only 2.0 %. The QIX Germany is a stock index that is formed from the top 25 German stocks. The 25 shares are selected according to a defined and successful rules.

Today, on the other hand, the RWE share is noted in the quality index with 1.1 % in plus 31.50 euros. The provider announced yesterday that he wanted to significantly expand his hydrogen business in Germany. Above all, a long -term
Delivery agreement with the French mineral oil company total energy. As RWE announced yesterday, the company plans to deliver around 30,000 tons of climate -neutral hydrogen to the Refinery Central Germany in Leuna for 15 years. However, both companies did not provide any information about the order volume, but the deliveries should not begin until 2030. However, total energy plans to improve its CO2 balance. In the future, RWE wants to produce the green hydrogen in Lingen in Lower Saxony, where the energy supplier is currently building an electrolysis system that is said to have a capacity of 300.0 MW by 2027. According to the company, it should be able to generate up to 5.6 tons of hydrogen per hour. However, the actual transport from Lingen to Leuna should then be carried out via the hydrogen pipeline network to be built. In addition, RWE plans the gas in its own hydrogen storage facility in Gronau in Westphalia, to be able to deliver enough hydrogen.
But despite the lack of infrastructure, this contract should probably have “signal character” for the entire region. We are proud to have concluded the first long-term acceptance contract for green hydrogen with total energy in Germany, the RWE board emphasized. Total energy is an important ancerative. And the future partner of RWE also sees only positive things in the deal. This long-term contract for green hydrogen is an important milestone to reduce our CO2 emissions in our refinery in Leuna, explained the total energy boss. According to the use of 30,000 tons of green hydrogen, RWE saves around 300,000 tons of CO2 annually in a refinery. Around 140,000 cars emit an average of an average of 140,000 cars per year. The hydrogen previously used by refineries mainly comes from fossil natural gas, which ultimately causes high emissions. However, according to RWE, total energy needs considerable amounts of green hydrogen to decarbonize the entire refineries in Europe. For this purpose, the French have now advertised 500,000 tons per year across Europe.
