- PGMs like rhodium, platinum and palladium took a hit with the semiconductor shortages reducing demand for catalytic converters.
- However, we see a longer term opportunity for PGMs in the hydrogen economy, where the higher intensity of PGMs in hydrogen fuel cells makes a case for secular growth.
- While we are unsure of the mix of PGMs that will end up in mature fuel cell technology, we think that like with autocatalysts, all are likely to be needed.
- Overall, we think the breadth of the hydrogen opportunity, and PGMs within it, goes beyond what exists now just in automotive, and is an opportunity too good to ignore.
