Lunedì 21 ottobre abbiamo ospitato Harris B. McDowell, Senatore dello Stato di Delaware. Tema del giorno: Sostenibilità, ambiente e obbligazioni etiche.
Il senatore ha analizzato la relazioni tra politiche economiche, ambiente e gli effetti sul mercato. Ci ha parlato in particolare del Programma Better Buildings dell’amministrazione federale e di uno studio su “start-up, nuova occupazione e finanziamento del non-consumo energetico attraverso un utilizzo etico del mercato obbligazionario”.
Solar power technologies have been around for years but didn't achieve a high enough penetration rate in the mass markets for economies of scale, to be affordable.
Would that change in the next few years?

Watt-e | Gamifying energy savings in your neighborhoodManu Gupta
Watt-e is a mobile app that measures your and your neighbor's utility bills. It shows the average cost on utility bills and how you stack against others in the neighborhood, provides bill estimations. Residents can get tips while competing with their neighbors, set goals and reduce their energy bills.
City Tech's Alex Frank moderated a panel with Elevate Energy, West Monroe & ComEd at Smart Cities International on January 18, 2018. The team discussed strategies to engage residents in smart energy tech & agreed that getting people the right information is as important as developing new technology.

Fuel For Thought: World Energy Outlook by 2035
World primary energy demand will increase 36%
The US is now the second largest energy consumer behind China
The use of clean renewable energy will triple

Electricity Rates
On average, CT electric rates have increased 5% per year, over the last 10 years. (Source: US Energy Information Administration)
Currently, the average commercial cost is between $0.16 - $0.17/kWh in CT
Straight line projection of 5%/year = $0.27/kWh in 2023
Why Solar Power?
Solar is a clean and renewable energy source
Every hour, enough sunlight shines on the earth to meet global energy needs for an entire year
Going Solar is Good Business
It speaks volumes to customers, employees and stakeholders that your company is committed to implementing “green” practices while still making economically sound decisions.
The terms “sustainability” and “profitability” are no longer odd bedfellows. The new view of Corporate Sustainability aims to ensure compliance with environmental standards and to safeguard natural resources.
Build Demand and Lower Costs
Reputation – People are attracted to companies who care about the environment.
Customers – Consumers are no longer looking at “going green” as an added effort, but they are actually demanding it.
Employees – Today, employees seek companies that are environmentally responsible. Not only is it easier to attract and retain talented employees, studies show that these companies enjoy a more motivated and productive workforce.
The Economics of Solar
Avoided Cost of Electricity equals Lower Operating Expenses – 30+ Years
Federal Tax Benefits – 30% ITC through 2016
MACRS accelerated depreciation:
20%, 32%, 19.2%, 11.52%, 11.52%, 5.76% of Basis by year (years 1 – 6)
State/Utility Incentives - ZREC
Zero Emission Renewable Energy Credit
Each megawatt hour (1,000 kWh) of energy produce = 1 ZREC

A crise de refugiados é o trágico resultado de uma política criminosa de guerras e de intervenções militares para mudança de regime, implementadas pelos Estados Unidos e pela União Europeia no Afeganistão, no Iraque, no Sudão, na Líbia e, acima de tudo, na Síria. O que o mundo testemunha hoje, com os milhares de refugiados desesperados na tentativa de chegar à Europa, é efeito desta política, mantida desde então pelas grandes potências ocidentais. Em mais de uma década, as guerras do Afeganistão e do Iraque, travadas com o pretexto de serem "contra o terrorismo", e justificadas com mentiras infames sobre "armas iraquianas de destruição em massa", devastaram sociedades inteiras e mataram centenas de milhares de homens, mulheres e crianças. A estas guerras seguiu-se a guerra por mudança de regime – liderada pelos Estados Unidos e OTAN – que derrubou o governo de Muammar Gaddafi e transformou a Líbia em um arremedo de país, praticamente sem governo, arruinado pela luta contínua entre milícias rivais. Seguiu-se a guerra civil na Síria – alimentada, armada e financiada pelo governo norte-americano e seus aliados europeus, com o objetivo de derrubar Bashar Al-Assad e substituí-lo por um fantoche obediente às potências ocidentais.

CLNR Provides Exposure to Clean Energy.pdfshahzad masood
CLNR Provides Exposure to Clean Energy Sector Through a Global Portfolio – Factset Analytics Insight
Clean Energy Group, Inc. (CLNR) offers investors exposure to the clean energy sector through a global portfolio. The company’s portfolio includes solar, wind, and water power. Factset Analytics Insight notes that the company has a strong track record of growth and a low correlation to the broader market.
CLNR Provides Exposure to Clean Energy Sector Through a Global Portfolio Factset Analytics Insight
1. Clean energy is one of the most important sectors for the future of the planet.
2. The growth of the clean energy sector has been nothing short of remarkable in recent years.
3. CLNR provides exposure to the clean energy sector through a global portfolio.
4. The fund has a strong track record and is one of the best performers in its category.
5. CLNR is a great option for investors looking to gain exposure to the clean energy sector.
2. CLNR’s Global Portfolio Gives Investors Exposure to the Clean Energy Sector
As the world increasingly turns to clean energy sources to power our homes and businesses, investors have been clamoring for ways to get involved in the growing industry. Enter the Global X Clean Edge Green Energy ETF (CLNE) and the First Trust NASDAQ Clean Edge Green Energy Index Fund (QCLN), two funds that offer investors exposure to companies involved in the clean energy space.
CLNE tracks the Clean Edge Green Energy Index, a global index of companies involved in the clean energy sector. The fund invests in a wide variety of companies involved in clean energy, including renewable power generation, advanced grid technology, and energy efficiency. QCLN, on the other hand, focuses on companies listed on U.S. exchanges that are involved in clean energy. The fund invests in a variety of companies involved in renewable power generation, advanced grid technology, and energy efficiency.
Both funds offer investors a way to get exposure to the clean energy sector, but there are some key differences between the two. First, CLNE is a global fund, while QCLN is focused on U.S. companies. Second, CLNE has a larger portfolio than QCLN, with over 100 holdings compared to QCLN’s 50. Finally, CLNE’s expense ratio is 0.65%, while QCLN’s expense ratio is 0.60%.
So, which fund is right for you? If you’re looking for exposure to the clean energy sector, either fund could be a good choice. However, if you’re looking for global exposure or a larger portfolio, CLNE may be the better option.
3. CLNR’s Investment Strategy Provides Opportunities in the Clean Energy Sector
As climate change and air pollution become increasingly pressing global issues, the clean energy sector has been booming in recent years. The rise of renewable energy sources like solar and wind power, along with advances in clean tech like electric vehicles and energy storage, has created a rapidly growing market for clean energy solutions.
Clean energy is often seen as a risky.
