Tip! As you know we always discuss investing here, not trading, meaning that we wish to hold almost all of our investments for at least six months or longer, not just a couple of weeks or months. Although alternative energy is real, and it does work there are many reasons to be skeptical before jumping on board.
Although you hear a lot about alternative energy being a good investment today, I think that it’s still a lot more hype than reality. Yes I’ve heard the arguments for alternative energy investments such as high oil prices now make the development of alternative energy sources more appealing on a cost-benefit scale. And I know that major oil companies are pumping billions of dollars into developing alternative energy. Still, considering that Exxon declared over $9 billion in profits, not revenues, in just one quarter in 2006, several billion earmarked for alternative energy development is not a lot. And while I’m also aware that companies like Vesta Wind Systems has jumped by 40% in the last six to nine months, I still think that alternative energy investments are more of a trading strategy rather than investment strategy for the time being.

Tip! Rebates for using alternative energy platforms are handled under the Renewable Energy Resources Program. The program is designed to motivate Illinois residents to use alternative energy by providing financial incentives in the form of rebates for those that modify their energy use.
What are fossil fuels?
Essentially there are three fossil fuel sources available to the world but each of them are dwindling. The most abundant is coal; coal is widely used and inexpensively extracted. As such, we have come to rely exceptionally heavily on coal and while there is still quite a large amount of coal left it is estimated that America’s remaining coal will sustain the country for the next 200 too 300 years but it is by no means a perfectly clean form of power.

It is essential that we find affordable and workable sources of alternative energy before the world completely consumes the already limited stock of fossil fuels. Many countries have started to introduce renewable energy schemes and more still have invested money into researching and even producing different sources of alternative energy. While it is essential that we become less reliant or not reliant at all on fossil fuels, many forms of alternative energy have their disadvantages as well as their obvious advantages. It has to be said though, that the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages in many cases.

Tip! Our environment is the only one we’ve got and surely we all understand that care needs to be applied to the current pollution issues. Our population continues to grow, the use of modern conveniences growth so consequential we need to develope alternative energy resource to keep up with the demand yet at the same time reduce the hazardes that come with our massive uses.

The Germans have really taken off when it comes to renewable fuel sources, and have become one of the major players in the alternative energy game. Under the aegis of the nation’s electricity feed laws, the German people set a world record in 2006 by investing over $10 billion (US) in research, development, and implementation of wind turbines, biogas power plants, and solar collection cells. Germany’s “feed laws” permit the German homeowners to connect to an electrical grid through some source of renewable energy and then sell back to the power company any excess energy produced at retail prices. This economic incentive has catapulted Germany into the number-one position among all nations with regards to the number of operational solar arrays, biogas plants, and wind turbines. The 50-terawatt hours of electricity produced by these renewable energy sources account for 10% of all of Germany’s energy production per year. In 2006 alone, Germany installed 100,000 solar energy collection systems.
