Buying stocks of alternative energy sources?
Hi people,
I got interested in companies producing alternative energy sources or equipment for that industry and I have two questions:
1. what do you think about buying stocks of such firms?
2. could you name some companies in this sector?
Alternative energy would be wind, solar, methanol, petrol produced out of plants and similar sources
many thanks for your answers

Anyway you look at it SYNM seems to be on a free fall – why buy their stocks?? Can’t see a good reason. Plus they rely on natural gas which is by no means alternative…
This is a lot of risk in that field of technology. Wind and solar are years away from being economically feasible. The recovery cost on current solar and wind electric systems goes beyond the life of the equipment.
There are two areas, in my opinion, worth looking into: bio-diesel and coal.
A company call Nova Biofuel is going into production of bio-diesel. It’s currently a penny stock, selling at about $1.30, but is worth looking at.
Another company, Fuel Tech, has a new fuel injection system that helps coal fired furnaces reduce emissions and slag build up. It has just gotten a contract to install its system in several coal fired electric plants in China. With China bringing on one new coal fired electric plant on line per week, this could be a boon for the company. It’s current selling at about $26.

In addition to this, biochar sequestration, in… |
