As ESG - environment, social and governance become more important these 3 solar energy stocks fit the bill. Still I prefer to invest in $XLE(XLE)$ which cover the major large cap energy companies under 1 neat little bundle all wrapped like a Christmas present. It is low cost and diversified.

But valuations for companies like Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) and Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) have gotten so high that they will have to perform perfectly to live up to expectations.\nIf you're looking for great alternative energy stocks that have more history and growth behind them, three of our Fool.com contributors think First Solar (NASDAQ:FSLR), Enphase Energy (NASDAQ:ENPH), and Brookfield Renewable Corporation (NYSE:BEPC) are well positioned heading into 2022.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nSolar energy's rock\nTravis Hoium (First Solar): The global solar industry continues to grow by double digits each year and in 2022 it will reach over 200 gigawatts (GW) and $170 billion of investment, according to IHS Markit. That's a massive tailwind for solar manufacturers who can make product profitably, and no one has as long a history of profitable manufacturing as First Solar.\nYou can see below that First Solar is solidly profitable and has over $1 billion in cash on the balance sheet. And with demand up and supply tight in the solar market we should see strong economics given First Solar's integrated manufacturing and thin-film technology that isn't reliant on typical industry silicon supply chains.\nFSLR Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts\nWhat makes this a great growth stock is the company's plans to double production over the next three years. We should see improved economies of scale and better net margins overall as manufacturing expands. Management expects $4 to $4.60 per share in earnings this year, which at the midpoint puts the stock at a price-to-2021-earnings ratio of 20. Given the growth expected over the next three years, this could be a breakout stock in alternative energy.\nBranching out while still in growth mode\nHoward Smith (Enphase Energy): Residential and commercial solar system technology company Enphase Energy fits into the growth stock category by several measures. The more than $350 million in revenue in its recently reported third quarter was 250% above its sales from just three years ago. And that growth hasn't plateaued yet. The midpoint of its fourth-quarter revenue guidance range would represent an increase of over 50% year over year.\nEnphase also isn't sitting on its laurels. The company looks to be hitting its stride at the same time the solar industry is gaining tailwinds from both public and private investment. Until recently, Enphase's growth has been tied to selling its microinverters and associated system software and communication technology. Microinverters convert the DC power generated by solar panels into the AC power used in homes and businesses. Enphase has recently introduced the IQ8, its eighth-generation system.\nBut the company has also moved into battery storage systems, and is expanding those sales globally. Most recently, Enphase announced it is acquiring electric vehicle charging solutions company ClipperCreek. That makes sense as EV buyers, as well as businesses supporting sustainability solutions, want those vehicles to be charged using 100% renewable energy. The company also plans to integrate its new charging technology to provide the capability for \"vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid applications.\"\nEven with the expectation of strong revenue growth in the fourth quarter, it will take some time for Enphase to grow into its valuation. Its current price-to-earnings ratio is above 180. But as long as its pace of growth continues, it will justify its recent price. With the company branching into the EV charging space, it might even do it sooner than some investors think, making Enphase a quality growth name for investors looking at the alternative energy sector.\nA great blend of value, income, and growth\nDaniel Foelber (Brookfield Renewable Corporation): Share prices of Brookfield Renewable are hovering around a 52-week low despite massive gains in the energy sector and the S&P 500. However, renewable energy investors know that it hasn't exactly been a great year for solar and wind energy stocks. In fact, both the Invesco Solar ETF and the First Trust Global Wind Energy ETF are negative for the year. However, it's worth mentioning that the average stock in the Invesco Solar ETF returned 14 times more than the market in 2020.\nBEPC Total Return Level data by YCharts\nIn Brookfield's case, the company has suffered a few analyst downgrades and faces skepticism over whether or not it can grow its earnings and dividend at the rate it previously guided for. Brookfield increased its dividend by just 5% in 2021 and is due for an increase next quarter. That's at the low end of management's target range of 5% to 9% a year. Yet because Brookfield's stock price has fallen, it now yields an impressive 3.5%. What's more, Brookfield reiterated its goal to drive shareholder value with a total annual return of 12% to 15% for investors over the long term. Brookfield is able to make this impressive commitment due to its top-tier portfolio of renewable energy assets, which consists of a global development backlog of 36 gigawatts (GW) and an existing capacity of 20 GW. All told, Brookfield's business is doing well and is set up nicely for growth and income.\nFor investors who don't want to bother with hyper-growth stocks like Lucid and Rivian, Brookfield Renewable could just be the ideal antidote for an electric vehicle euphoria migraine.\nOpportunities abound\nNot all alternative energy stocks have wild valuations today. First Solar, Enphase Energy, and Brookfield Renewable have strong growth and decent value, which is a great combination in today's market.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":null,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":696653400,"gmtCreate":1640688631006,"gmtModify":1640688631575,"author":{"id":"4091753544363040","authorId":"4091753544363040","name":"Ahlec","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/81afb03fdd19de870e28208208ff7909","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Missed the&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ENPH\">$ENPH(ENPH)$</a>run earlier...","listText":"Missed the&nbsp;<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ENPH\">$ENPH(ENPH)$</a>run earlier...","text":"Missed the $ENPH(ENPH)$run earlier...","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/696653400","repostId":2194047961,"repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2194047961","pubTimestamp":1640662800,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2194047961?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-12-28 11:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Think Lucid and Rivian Are Overvalued?

But valuations for companies like Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) and Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) have gotten so high that they will have to perform perfectly to live up to expectations.\nIf you're looking for great alternative energy stocks that have more history and growth behind them, three of our Fool.com contributors think First Solar (NASDAQ:FSLR), Enphase Energy (NASDAQ:ENPH), and Brookfield Renewable Corporation (NYSE:BEPC) are well positioned heading into 2022.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nSolar energy's rock\nTravis Hoium (First Solar): The global solar industry continues to grow by double digits each year and in 2022 it will reach over 200 gigawatts (GW) and $170 billion of investment, according to IHS Markit. That's a massive tailwind for solar manufacturers who can make product profitably, and no one has as long a history of profitable manufacturing as First Solar.\nYou can see below that First Solar is solidly profitable and has over $1 billion in cash on the balance sheet. And with demand up and supply tight in the solar market we should see strong economics given First Solar's integrated manufacturing and thin-film technology that isn't reliant on typical industry silicon supply chains.\nFSLR Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts\nWhat makes this a great growth stock is the company's plans to double production over the next three years. We should see improved economies of scale and better net margins overall as manufacturing expands. Management expects $4 to $4.60 per share in earnings this year, which at the midpoint puts the stock at a price-to-2021-earnings ratio of 20. Given the growth expected over the next three years, this could be a breakout stock in alternative energy.\nBranching out while still in growth mode\nHoward Smith (Enphase Energy): Residential and commercial solar system technology company Enphase Energy fits into the growth stock category by several measures. The more than $350 million in revenue in its recently reported third quarter was 250% above its sales from just three years ago. And that growth hasn't plateaued yet. The midpoint of its fourth-quarter revenue guidance range would represent an increase of over 50% year over year.\nEnphase also isn't sitting on its laurels. The company looks to be hitting its stride at the same time the solar industry is gaining tailwinds from both public and private investment. Until recently, Enphase's growth has been tied to selling its microinverters and associated system software and communication technology. Microinverters convert the DC power generated by solar panels into the AC power used in homes and businesses. Enphase has recently introduced the IQ8, its eighth-generation system.\nBut the company has also moved into battery storage systems, and is expanding those sales globally. Most recently, Enphase announced it is acquiring electric vehicle charging solutions company ClipperCreek. That makes sense as EV buyers, as well as businesses supporting sustainability solutions, want those vehicles to be charged using 100% renewable energy. The company also plans to integrate its new charging technology to provide the capability for \"vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid applications.\"\nEven with the expectation of strong revenue growth in the fourth quarter, it will take some time for Enphase to grow into its valuation. Its current price-to-earnings ratio is above 180. But as long as its pace of growth continues, it will justify its recent price. With the company branching into the EV charging space, it might even do it sooner than some investors think, making Enphase a quality growth name for investors looking at the alternative energy sector.\nA great blend of value, income, and growth\nDaniel Foelber (Brookfield Renewable Corporation): Share prices of Brookfield Renewable are hovering around a 52-week low despite massive gains in the energy sector and the S&P 500. However, renewable energy investors know that it hasn't exactly been a great year for solar and wind energy stocks. In fact, both the Invesco Solar ETF and the First Trust Global Wind Energy ETF are negative for the year. However, it's worth mentioning that the average stock in the Invesco Solar ETF returned 14 times more than the market in 2020.\nBEPC Total Return Level data by YCharts\nIn Brookfield's case, the company has suffered a few analyst downgrades and faces skepticism over whether or not it can grow its earnings and dividend at the rate it previously guided for. Brookfield increased its dividend by just 5% in 2021 and is due for an increase next quarter. That's at the low end of management's target range of 5% to 9% a year. Yet because Brookfield's stock price has fallen, it now yields an impressive 3.5%. What's more, Brookfield reiterated its goal to drive shareholder value with a total annual return of 12% to 15% for investors over the long term. Brookfield is able to make this impressive commitment due to its top-tier portfolio of renewable energy assets, which consists of a global development backlog of 36 gigawatts (GW) and an existing capacity of 20 GW. All told, Brookfield's business is doing well and is set up nicely for growth and income.\nFor investors who don't want to bother with hyper-growth stocks like Lucid and Rivian, Brookfield Renewable could just be the ideal antidote for an electric vehicle euphoria migraine.\nOpportunities abound\nNot all alternative energy stocks have wild valuations today. First Solar, Enphase Energy, and Brookfield Renewable have strong growth and decent value, which is a great combination in today's market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":696859380,"gmtCreate":1640667966434,"gmtModify":1640667966434,"author":{"id":"3559581955535845","authorId":"3559581955535845","name":"koolgal","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c05274d88ffc0434623e57350c52c70a","vip":2,"crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"As ESG - environment, social and governance become more important these 3 solar energy stocks fit the bill.

That's a massive tailwind for solar manufacturers who can make product profitably, and no one has as long a history of profitable manufacturing as First Solar.\nYou can see below that First Solar is solidly profitable and has over $1 billion in cash on the balance sheet. And with demand up and supply tight in the solar market we should see strong economics given First Solar's integrated manufacturing and thin-film technology that isn't reliant on typical industry silicon supply chains.\nFSLR Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts\nWhat makes this a great growth stock is the company's plans to double production over the next three years. We should see improved economies of scale and better net margins overall as manufacturing expands. Management expects $4 to $4.60 per share in earnings this year, which at the midpoint puts the stock at a price-to-2021-earnings ratio of 20. Given the growth expected over the next three years, this could be a breakout stock in alternative energy.\nBranching out while still in growth mode\nHoward Smith (Enphase Energy): Residential and commercial solar system technology company Enphase Energy fits into the growth stock category by several measures. The more than $350 million in revenue in its recently reported third quarter was 250% above its sales from just three years ago. And that growth hasn't plateaued yet. The midpoint of its fourth-quarter revenue guidance range would represent an increase of over 50% year over year.\nEnphase also isn't sitting on its laurels. The company looks to be hitting its stride at the same time the solar industry is gaining tailwinds from both public and private investment. Until recently, Enphase's growth has been tied to selling its microinverters and associated system software and communication technology. Microinverters convert the DC power generated by solar panels into the AC power used in homes and businesses. Enphase has recently introduced the IQ8, its eighth-generation system.\nBut the company has also moved into battery storage systems, and is expanding those sales globally. Most recently, Enphase announced it is acquiring electric vehicle charging solutions company ClipperCreek. That makes sense as EV buyers, as well as businesses supporting sustainability solutions, want those vehicles to be charged using 100% renewable energy. The company also plans to integrate its new charging technology to provide the capability for \"vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid applications.\"\nEven with the expectation of strong revenue growth in the fourth quarter, it will take some time for Enphase to grow into its valuation. Its current price-to-earnings ratio is above 180. But as long as its pace of growth continues, it will justify its recent price. With the company branching into the EV charging space, it might even do it sooner than some investors think, making Enphase a quality growth name for investors looking at the alternative energy sector.\nA great blend of value, income, and growth\nDaniel Foelber (Brookfield Renewable Corporation): Share prices of Brookfield Renewable are hovering around a 52-week low despite massive gains in the energy sector and the S&P 500. However, renewable energy investors know that it hasn't exactly been a great year for solar and wind energy stocks.

But valuations for companies like Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) and Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) have gotten so high that they will have to perform perfectly to live up to expectations.\nIf you're looking for great alternative energy stocks that have more history and growth behind them, three of our Fool.com contributors think First Solar (NASDAQ:FSLR), Enphase Energy (NASDAQ:ENPH), and Brookfield Renewable Corporation (NYSE:BEPC) are well positioned heading into 2022.\nImage source: Getty Images.\nSolar energy's rock\nTravis Hoium (First Solar): The global solar industry continues to grow by double digits each year and in 2022 it will reach over 200 gigawatts (GW) and $170 billion of investment, according to IHS Markit. That's a massive tailwind for solar manufacturers who can make product profitably, and no one has as long a history of profitable manufacturing as First Solar.\nYou can see below that First Solar is solidly profitable and has over $1 billion in cash on the balance sheet. And with demand up and supply tight in the solar market we should see strong economics given First Solar's integrated manufacturing and thin-film technology that isn't reliant on typical industry silicon supply chains.\nFSLR Revenue (TTM) data by YCharts\nWhat makes this a great growth stock is the company's plans to double production over the next three years. We should see improved economies of scale and better net margins overall as manufacturing expands. Management expects $4 to $4.60 per share in earnings this year, which at the midpoint puts the stock at a price-to-2021-earnings ratio of 20. Given the growth expected over the next three years, this could be a breakout stock in alternative energy.\nBranching out while still in growth mode\nHoward Smith (Enphase Energy): Residential and commercial solar system technology company Enphase Energy fits into the growth stock category by several measures. The more than $350 million in revenue in its recently reported third quarter was 250% above its sales from just three years ago. And that growth hasn't plateaued yet. The midpoint of its fourth-quarter revenue guidance range would represent an increase of over 50% year over year.\nEnphase also isn't sitting on its laurels. The company looks to be hitting its stride at the same time the solar industry is gaining tailwinds from both public and private investment. Until recently, Enphase's growth has been tied to selling its microinverters and associated system software and communication technology. Microinverters convert the DC power generated by solar panels into the AC power used in homes and businesses. Enphase has recently introduced the IQ8, its eighth-generation system.\nBut the company has also moved into battery storage systems, and is expanding those sales globally. Most recently, Enphase announced it is acquiring electric vehicle charging solutions company ClipperCreek. That makes sense as EV buyers, as well as businesses supporting sustainability solutions, want those vehicles to be charged using 100% renewable energy. The company also plans to integrate its new charging technology to provide the capability for \"vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid applications.\"\nEven with the expectation of strong revenue growth in the fourth quarter, it will take some time for Enphase to grow into its valuation. Its current price-to-earnings ratio is above 180. But as long as its pace of growth continues, it will justify its recent price. With the company branching into the EV charging space, it might even do it sooner than some investors think, making Enphase a quality growth name for investors looking at the alternative energy sector.\nA great blend of value, income, and growth\nDaniel Foelber (Brookfield Renewable Corporation): Share prices of Brookfield Renewable are hovering around a 52-week low despite massive gains in the energy sector and the S&P 500. However, renewable energy investors know that it hasn't exactly been a great year for solar and wind energy stocks. In fact, both the Invesco Solar ETF and the First Trust Global Wind Energy ETF are negative for the year. However, it's worth mentioning that the average stock in the Invesco Solar ETF returned 14 times more than the market in 2020.\nBEPC Total Return Level data by YCharts\nIn Brookfield's case, the company has suffered a few analyst downgrades and faces skepticism over whether or not it can grow its earnings and dividend at the rate it previously guided for. Brookfield increased its dividend by just 5% in 2021 and is due for an increase next quarter. That's at the low end of management's target range of 5% to 9% a year. Yet because Brookfield's stock price has fallen, it now yields an impressive 3.5%. What's more, Brookfield reiterated its goal to drive shareholder value with a total annual return of 12% to 15% for investors over the long term. Brookfield is able to make this impressive commitment due to its top-tier portfolio of renewable energy assets, which consists of a global development backlog of 36 gigawatts (GW) and an existing capacity of 20 GW. All told, Brookfield's business is doing well and is set up nicely for growth and income.\nFor investors who don't want to bother with hyper-growth stocks like Lucid and Rivian, Brookfield Renewable could just be the ideal antidote for an electric vehicle euphoria migraine.\nOpportunities abound\nNot all alternative energy stocks have wild valuations today.

However, it's worth mentioning that the average stock in the Invesco Solar ETF returned 14 times more than the market in 2020.\nBEPC Total Return Level data by YCharts\nIn Brookfield's case, the company has suffered a few analyst downgrades and faces skepticism over whether or not it can grow its earnings and dividend at the rate it previously guided for. Brookfield increased its dividend by just 5% in 2021 and is due for an increase next quarter. That's at the low end of management's target range of 5% to 9% a year. Yet because Brookfield's stock price has fallen, it now yields an impressive 3.5%. What's more, Brookfield reiterated its goal to drive shareholder value with a total annual return of 12% to 15% for investors over the long term. Brookfield is able to make this impressive commitment due to its top-tier portfolio of renewable energy assets, which consists of a global development backlog of 36 gigawatts (GW) and an existing capacity of 20 GW. All told, Brookfield's business is doing well and is set up nicely for growth and income.\nFor investors who don't want to bother with hyper-growth stocks like Lucid and Rivian, Brookfield Renewable could just be the ideal antidote for an electric vehicle euphoria migraine.\nOpportunities abound\nNot all alternative energy stocks have wild valuations today. First Solar, Enphase Energy, and Brookfield Renewable have strong growth and decent value, which is a great combination in today's market.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":7125414,"gmtCreate":1640663905001,"gmtModify":1640663905105,"authorId":3578176602660058,"author":{"id":3578176602660058,"authorId":3578176602660058,"name":"JimmySiew","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/865217a1248da3f0d11fd05e9280c2a7","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":696885587,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"<u>auh</u>","text":"<u>auh</u>","html":"<u>auh</u>"}],"langContent":"CN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":131,"commentSize":11,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":5,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
