Expensive wind and solar power doesn’t make sense economically. However, Algonquin and Innergex sell all of their wind and solar power under long-term, government-guaranteed contracts at above-market prices. That cuts their risk.

Green Stocks
Green stocks are shares of companies that promote and/or profit from actions that are good for the environment. Although many have a lot of conceptual and emotional appeal, they may offer limited returns to investors. These companies often need a long time to develop in light of high start-up costs and uncertain government subsidies. Pat McKeough believes investors should use care when investing in these companies, and focus on those that have strong business models and long-term growth prospects.
