Tema ETFs (“Tema”) is excited to announce the launch of
the Tema Electrification ETF (VOLT), on Nasdaq. VOLT is the first
ETF globally seeking to provide long-term growth by investing in
companies that benefit from the electrification megacycle. AI,
mobility, digitization, and reindustrialization are all
accelerating power demand for the first time in decades, unlocking
trillions of dollars in investment across the electrification value
chain. The VOLT portfolio will be managed by Chris Semenuk, who has
25 years’ experience, managing $5bn in global equities at TIAA.
Chris also manages the Tema American Reshoring ETF (RSHO), which
since inception has delivered +66.26% return, ahead of the S&P
500 (+41.46%) and S&P 400 (+49.82%).
“The VOLT ETF is the latest in our range of innovative
first-mover ETF launches, providing investors with professionally
managed portfolio building blocks that access some of tomorrow’s
most relevant yet least explored opportunities,” said Maurits Pot,
Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Tema. “For the first time in
decades, accelerating power demand is forecast to outstrip supply,
creating an investment cycle akin to the days of Thomas Edison.
This structural shift in power demand will transform the entire
electrification value chain. Investing behind this opportunity
requires a risk managed approach managed by experienced investment
talent. VOLT is a durable implementation solution combining
precision, conviction and investment expertise.”
Electrification is a broad term covering generation, storage,
transmission, and distribution, as well as end use applications and
services. Electricity demand is set to outstrip supply as soon as
2025, creating an estimated 40 GW capacity supply gap by 2030,
equivalent to the output of 40 new nuclear plants. To meet
increased demand Goldman Sachs estimates nearly $7 trillion of
investment is required.
The electrification trend is at the nexus of secular growth
drivers. AI data centers, for example, use seven times more power
than traditional data centers and are forcing leading cloud
companies to co-locate generation capacity. Nuclear energy, a
stable and clean source of power, is experiencing a resurgence,
from recommissioning of old plants like Microsoft’s deal for Three
Mile Island to new technologies like small scale modular reactors
(SMR). Reshoring and reindustrialization, especially under the
incoming administration, are creating a strong tailwind for
electrification end-use applications. Schneider Electric estimates
suggest 80% of industrial energy demand will be supplied by
electricity by 2050.
“These demand drivers are exposing a US grid that is 40 years
old and in need of modernization, ushering in the electrification
investment megacycle,” said Chris Semenuk, VOLT portfolio manager.
“Meeting the oncoming wave of electricity demand will require a
rapid increase in capital spending on both new generation and
existing grid capacity. VOLT companies will span the entire value
chain, providing investors with broad exposure to electrification
verticals, while focusing on high quality companies that are well
positioned to take advantage of this trend.”
