Future of Global Cleantech Energy Investing Stabilized by Seven Pillars of Renewable Power, Lead by Activity in the U.S., China, and Europe

Future of Global Cleantech Energy Investing Stabilized by Seven Pillars of Renewable Power, Lead by Activity in the U.S., China, and Europe


New York, – SBI Energy, the leading industrial market research firm behind bestselling titles Clean Coal Energy Technologies: Markets and Trends Worldwide and Nuclear Energy Technologies Worldwide: Components and Manufacturing, has added Cleantech Energy Investing to its growing catalog of global reports covering alternative power resources.
Cleantech Energy Investing analyzes the global investment patterns dedicated to developing and commercializing cleantech energy. The report’s scope covers investment growth in seven energy producing technologies (solar, wind, biofuel, hydro, geothermal, nuclear and clean coal) and eleven geographies (the United States, Canada, Brazil, Spain, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, China, India, Japan and Australia). For each technology, the report provides a short technical background, defines market size and growth, and identifies trends and opportunities.
As fossil fuel reserves dwindle, there is a growing need for clean energy supplies. Most clean technologies are sound and are emerging as alternatives to fossil fuels. Nevertheless, investments remain a key growth factor. To compete, clean energy sources must advance to reach the same level of efficiency, maturity and practical use as traditional sources.
In the U.S., solar and wind energy are predicted to be the breakthrough powerhouses of the seven technologies profiled. SBI Energy forecasts domestic investment growth rates for solar energy could easily top 40% over the next four years. Meanwhile, wind energy projects are underway or planned by 79% of utilities in the U.S. within the next five years.
“Clean energy expansion is pegged to energy policy and federal stimulus funds in the U.S. Investment growth rates will increase slowly but steadily driven by both political and consumer pressure associated with the green agenda,” says Jean-Francois Denault, SBI Energy analyst and author of the report.
Globally, Europe is the region expected to generate the steadiest growth. Europe's overall investments in cleantech—estimated at $50 billion and with a yearly growth of 2%-3%—are expected to continue for the 2010-2014 period.
Meanwhile, Asia’s growth rate in energy consumption is phenomenal. Primary energy demand is expected to grow by almost 76% between 2007 and 2030. Growth in the region is driven mostly by China, India and Japan. In particular, China, as one of the world's most rapidly growing economies, is at the center of the action in the clean energy industry with goals to invest $22 billion in renewable energy by 2020.
Cleantech in South America is characterized by a potential for rapid growth, but fragile economies have more urgent priorities for the short term meaning most projects in the region are either biofuel-based (as is the case in Brazil) or use established technologies (such as hydro power). Without opportunities for important financial assistance, it is very hard to jumpstart hedgier technologies (such as solar, wave or tidal). While political risks hinder growth, privatization of large assets (such as hydro and nuclear facilities) provides big growth opportunities. SBI Energy expects regional growth in South America will vary substantially from one country to the next.

Renewable Energy Investment Has Never Been More Critical

Renewable Energy Investment Has Never Been More Critical

“More than anything else, this economic and environmental tragedy –- and it’s a tragedy -– underscores the urgent need for this nation to develop clean, renewable sources of energy”- President Barack Obama

May 31, 2010 (Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire) Investor Ideas global investor research portal covering leading sectors, focusing on environment and water, updates investors in the cleantech sector following recent remarks from President Barack Obama regarding the BP Oil Spill.

Remarks by the President on the Gulf Oil Spill May 27, 2010
Excerpt:

“Let me make one final point. More than anything else, this economic and environmental tragedy –- and it’s a tragedy -– underscores the urgent need for this nation to develop clean, renewable sources of energy. Doing so will not only reduce threats to our environment, it will create a new, homegrown, American industry that can lead to countless new businesses and new jobs.

We’ve talked about doing this for decades, and we’ve made significant strides over the last year when it comes to investing in renewable energy and energy efficiency. The House of Representatives has already passed a bill that would finally jumpstart a permanent transition to a clean energy economy, and there is currently a plan in the Senate –- a plan that was developed with ideas from Democrats and Republicans –- that would achieve the same goal.

If nothing else, this disaster should serve as a wake-up call that it’s time to move forward on this legislation. It’s time to accelerate the competition with countries like China, who have already realized the future lies in renewable energy. And it’s time to seize that future ourselves. So I call on Democrats and Republicans in Congress, working with my administration, to answer this challenge once and for all.”

The average value gain of the 20 largest clean energy/technology companies traded on the TSX was 25% compared with the TSX composite whose average gain was 2.5%. In the U.S., the S&P 500 increased 5%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average increased 4% and the NASDAQ composite average increased 5.5%.

The average value gain of the 10 largest clean energy/technology companies traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange Venture (TSXV) market was 4% compared with the TSXV composite average's 4.8% gain.

The Hoggan 20-10 Clean Company List includes the 20 largest clean energy/technology companies traded on the TSX and the 10 largest clean energy/technology companies traded on the TSXV as measured by market value at close of trading March 31, 2010.
