3 Renewable Energy Stocks Worth Buying and Holding Until At Least 2050
A decade ago, renewable energy was largely a pipe dream for environmentalists and some energy leaders, but didn't account for a meaningful amount of energy usage around the world. But that has changed; the International Energy Agency estimates that by 2025 renewable energy will overtake coal as the largest source of electricity generation in the world. And the cost of building wind, solar, and energy storage plants is falling.
This creates a huge tailwind for renewable energy stocks that can build a large, profitable business. While there are certainly risks -- as longtime renewable energy followers know -- three of our contributors think First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR), Brookfield Renewable Partners (NYSE: BEPC), and Equinor (NYSE: EQNR) are set to thrive for at least the next three decades.
