Clean energy,
simply put, has all the earmarks of being one of the best investment trends
ever. Better yet, it is still very early in the game and the bulk of the
money has yet to be made. This book provides investors with a straightforward
guide on how to invest in the diverse and fast-moving clean energy sector.
The demand
for new and cleaner forms of energy comes not only from climate change
and energy security concerns, but also from the sheer amount of new energy
generation that will be needed to satisfy the world's fast-growing needs.
World energy demand will grow 57% by 2030 and $4 trillion of new power
generation assets are needed by 2030, according to official energy agencies.
With this huge target market, the clean energy industry can easily grow
at double-digit annual rates for decades.
Clean energy
involves very different sub-sectors including solar power, wind power,
fuel cells, geothermal, biomass and biogas, wave and tide power, efficient
appliances and lighting, efficient buildings, smart meters, advanced power
storage, hybrid battery technology, biofuels, cleaner coal, carbon trading,
and others. Each of these sub-sectors features different technology, growth
drivers, and players.
With "Profiting
from Clean Energy," respected investment analyst Richard Asplund provides
an in-depth explanation of the technology and industry structure behind
these sub-sectors and in the process identifies more than 150 stocks related
to clean energy. Asplund provides criteria for choosing the best clean
energy stocks and offers an investment opinion on each of the main clean
energy sub-sectors. He also discusses how to invest in clean energy, whether
through buying individual stocks, investing in green exchange-traded funds
or mutual funds, or trading the biofuel and carbon credit markets.
In short,
this book provides an easy way for an investor to quickly become an expert
on the clean energy industry and discover its many exciting investment
opportunities.
