Description

Table of Contents

















With Profiting from Clean Energy, respected investment analyst Richard Asplund provides an in-depth explanation of the technology and industry structure behind various sectors of this field and in the process identifies more than 150 stocks related to clean energy. Along the way, Asplund discusses exactly what it takes to effectively invest in clean energywhether it be through buying individual stocks, investing in green exchange-traded funds or mutual funds, or trading the biofuel and carbon credit markets.

Profiting from Clean Energy provides a complete guide for individual and professional investors on how to profit from the fast growing clean energy sector. Investment opportunities in bio-fuels/ethanol, solar power, wind power, fuel cells, geothermal, clean fossil fuel technologies, and power savings and efficiency are analyzed. Research backs guidance on best areas to invest in now, which to wait on, and what to avoid completely. All the ways to invest in this sector including stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, venture capital, angel investing, and futures are presented. The age of "dinosaur fuel" is peaking and petroleum prices have soared to record highs due to inability of production to keep pace with growing demand. The tipping point has arrived for the move to clean energy alternatives and governments around the world are mandating change through regulation, incentive, and investment. Now is the time to get in on the ground floor of the burgeoning area which today stands at $4 billion in sales and is estimated to quadruple over the next 10 years.
