Profit in a Changing World
The clean energy market has had a rough ride in the past 3 years. The enormous investment potential in this sector and the low valuations for many of the companies should be capturing the interest of investors. For bargain stock hunters, the dramatic drop in energy stock prices presents an exceptional investment opportunity, one that the general public is not yet aware of.
Will the Clean Energy sector ever be able to replace the present fossil fuel industry?
Wind power is now grid competitive in many countries around the world, in some cases being so cheap that it is actually reducing consumer electricity bills in Europe and Texas (see our blog). It has also become the number one source of new electricity installations in Europe and the U.S. over the past few years.
While solar power has not yet reached grid-parity, prices are dropping fast. At the end of 2008, a typical solar Photovolatics (PV) module cost roughly $4 per watt. By the end of 2009, that same module was priced under $2. Improved designs, more efficient manufacturing plants and economies of scale have contributed to the reduced price.
The U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is forecasting that solar PV electricity will be at or below grid parity in nearly 50% of U.S. utility markets by 2015. In Europe, some analysts are calling for grid-parity in certain localized markets in Spain and Germany by early 2011.
So, dropping solar PV prices are exactly what investors want to see, as we get ever closer to that point where solar PV can compete directly with fossil fuel-based sources of electricity.
How has the price of natural gas affected the clean energy industry?
Many clean energy producers are selling power under variable Power Purchase Agreements with U.S. utilities. The power rates are based on the average cost of electricity generated from natural gas power plants. With the price of natural gas plunging over the past few months, those companies have been hit as well.
Plunging natural gas prices have been mirrored by recent claims that the U.S. has natural gas reserves which should last a hundred years, thanks to the “vast” shale natural gas reserves that are now claimed to exist. However, more reasonable estimates by gas analysts suggest that these reserves are probably good for about 6 years at current consumption rates, not 100 years.
How can you profit from current conditions?
It is abundantly clear that the energy landscape that we have grown up with is undergoing dramatic change. Developed and developing nations alike are beginning the shift to clean, sustainable and renewable sources of energy.
The world is embarking on a period of change that will surpass even the remarkable changes that occurred over the past couple of decades. The coming transition will impact every aspect of our lives – and present investment opportunities greater than any that have ever come before.
