- Wednesday, January 2, 10:12 AM Biofuel firms enjoy notable strength in early trading, as the fiscal cliff deal includes relief for all sorts of renewable energy. BIOF +24.7%, SYNM +24.1%, GEVO +10.4%, REGI +9.2%, SZYM +5.9%, PEIX +4.8%, FF +4%, AMRS +3.9%, ADM +3.4%, KIOR +2.7%. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Thursday, August 9, 2012, 8:09 AM Another coal-fired power plant is set to go dark, the Rochester, MN utilities board voting to retire its Silver Lake facility. Cheap natural gas and wind power is making it cheaper to buy power off the regional grid, and there's also the whole clean air thing. (see also) 5 Comments [Energy]
- Wednesday, August 8, 2012, 10:01 AM Data for the construction of power generation facilities in H1 paints a stark picture of the ascendance of natural gas, with 3,708 MW gas-fired plants built, 2,367 MW of wind farms developed, and 1,608 MW of coal stations constructed. Gas provides 41.8% of U.S. electricity, coal 29.7%, nuclear 9.2%, water 8.7%, wind 4.3%, geothermal 0.3%, and solar 0.3%. Comment! [Energy]
- Monday, January 30, 2012, 6:09 AM Newly released data confirms the rising trend in world temperatures ended in 1997, and leading climate scientists say the sun is now heading towards a ‘grand minimum’ in its output which threatens colder seasons. This could have significant long-term consequences for investments in alternative energy technologies, as much of it has been driven by fears of man-made global warming.

- Thursday, January 19, 2012, 9:40 AM Defining overbought as being more than 5% above a 50-day moving average, Bespoke says 24% of tracked ETFs fit the bill. Leading the list is the homebuilders (XHB), more than 13% above its 50 day MA; Brazil (EWZ) leads the country ETFs, 8.2% above. A few more days of market gains and look for talk about the entire market being overbought. Comment! [Quick Ideas]
- Friday, November 18, 2011, 1:16 PM A U.N.-created panel finds climate change is responsible for cases of extreme weather - citing floods, monsoons, and heat waves outside the normal range of occurrences. A report issued by IPCC (.pdf) on the controversial topic expresses "high confidence" that daily temperatures have increased due to greenhouse gases. Will green-leaning ETFs such as PBD, ICLN, PBD, PBW, QCLN, and PZD see a kick from upcoming talks on a new climate agreement or will a slumping global economy keep climate control on the backburner? 18 Comments [Energy, Global & FX]
- Wednesday, November 16, 2011, 9:29 AM A detailed forecast from Bloomberg New Energy Finance projects clean energy investments may double by 2020 to $395B. The report sees China taking over the renewable energy spending lead from Europe in 2014 with India, the Middle East, and Africa upping their spending rapidly. "Last year’s record renewable energy investment was no one-off despite the recent economic gloom." Comment! [Energy]

Comment! - Friday, February 5, 2010, 2:14 PM After falling to $3.2B last year, debt financing for renewable energy in the U.S. may rebound to 2008 levels of $6B, says one project manager, as banks start redeploying capital to this "sexy space." Government stimulus of $80B has been credited with thawing the market considerably. (ETF: PBW) 6 Comments
