Do You Have These Top Green Energy Stocks On Your Summer Watchlist?

It would not surprise me to see that green energy stocks are amongst the most active stocks today. Understandably, with the effects of climate change being more severe than ever, the green energy industry would be increasingly crucial. As the world makes the shift towards clean and sustainable sources of energy, green energy stocks could flourish. Because of this, investors could be eyeing the sector now. For one thing, investment banking firm Citi (NYSE: C) seems to believe so. Yesterday, Citi’s head of investment strategy for Asia-Pacific, Ken Pang highlighted the sector as being “very productive” now.

According to Pang, major governments around the world are focusing on sustainable development. By extension, this would mean that there would be ample funds flowing into the industry. Not only that but, the analyst also believes that the green energy trend “is likely to be with us for a good part of the next decade”. This could make green energy stocks potential long-term plays for investors now. For example, we could look at leading names in the solar energy industry now. Companies such as Enphase (NASDAQ: ENPH) and Daqo New Energy (NYSE: DQ) have seen their share prices skyrocket over the past year. In that time ENPH stock is up by over 200% and DQ stock is looking at gains of over 490%.

Meanwhile, First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR) is looking to invest $680 million towards expanding its U.S. solar manufacturing capacities. With no shortage of exciting developments in the industry today, you might be keen on green energy stocks yourself. If you are, here are four to know in the stock market now.

Green Energy Stocks To Watch This Month

General Electric Company

To begin with, we have the General Electric Company (GE). As the name suggests, the multinational conglomerate boasts numerous ventures in the energy industry. Today, we will be focusing on its GE Renewable Energy division. By GE’s estimates, its green energy arm is a $15.7 billion business. Moreover, it boasts one of the broadest portfolios in the renewable energy industry. This includes but is not limited to, a combination of onshore and offshore wind turbines, utility-scale solar, and grid solutions. To date, GE Renewable Energy has installed over 400 gigawatts of clean renewable energy, equipping over 90% of utilities globally with its grid solutions.

Impressive green portfolio aside, GE does not appear to be slowing down anytime soon. As of yesterday, the company is currently working with LafargeHolcim, a global leader in building solutions, on its latest wind energy project. Together, both companies will be exploring more sustainable and cost-saving applications for old decommissioned wind turbines. Before that, GE also landed one of the largest onshore wind contracts in the Southeast Asia region last month.

Moreover, it is working with some of the biggest renewable energy names in the Philippine-Vietnam region. In this collaboration, GE will be supplying, installing, and commissioning wind turbines for the 88-megawatt wind farm in Vietnam. With the company’s green energy division kicking into high gear now, GE stock could be a viable green energy play. Would you say the same?
