From Long Shots to Big Shots: Small Cap Renewable Energy Stocks

"Photovoltaic methods capture 5 to 6 watts per square meter."

How can this statement be true when you have PV efficiencies that range from 6% (thin film) to 22% (best crystalline panels)?

Such low quality info suggests that the poster is very poorly informed, has an unstated agenda, or both.

I would also dicker with the article's contention that "Akeena stock recently took a dip after it announced plans to sell up to $30 million in a mixed shelf securities offering."

Akeena's share price took a dip because of a little thing called the global financial crisis/credit crunch/massive recession. It declined along with the shares of just about everyone else. The shelf filing occurred fairly recently, and prices have actually improved since then. However, I won't try to claim a causal relationship, since trying to correspond all but the most obvious blips and bumps in a share price to events is really a fool's game.
