BUY

It's the largest renewable energy company in the world--wind, solar and some natural gas. Big operations in Florida and growing rapidly. Their free cash keeps building and the dividend has grown 13% in the past year. Gives you energy exposure beyond oil, which the world is moving away from.

DON'T BUY

They are one of the largest utilities in the US. It is about 22 times forward earnings and he is trimming it based on that. He does not see as much growth coming out of it. It is the dominant renewable energy player, especially in wind.

COMMENT

Good company, really likes them. Big focus on renewable energy in the US. Would want to see more growth. Lots of earnings growth for now but not a huge amount of revenue growth. More of a growth play, there are better options if you are looking at the dividend. Yields 2%.

TOP PICK

This is mostly a renewable source energy company. They claim they are the world’s largest wind and solar energy producer. It is undervalued. Dividend is growing. He sees a 17% upside to this. Yield = 2.5%. (Analysts’ price target is $180.78)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 27/17, Up 21%) Mostly solar, some wind. Growing in Florida, their big market. Good capital allocators, dividend’s growing at 10-15%, roughly 50% higher than Canadian utilities. He holds his stocks “forever,” unless a red flag appears and forces him to sell.

TOP PICK

This is “the” company leading the way in renewable power and alternative energy. 50% of their power generation comes from wind, and is growing very rapidly. Wind power and solar have now become less expensive than coal power, at the same time we are about to head into an electric vehicle revolution. The company has done a lot of research on battery technology storage and they service 5 million customers in Florida. A big utility and has a great balance sheet. They have 20-year contracts to supply power to their other utility customers. Dividend yield of 2.6%. (Analysts’ price target is $157.)

TOP PICK

This is in wind, solar and nuclear power, mostly in Florida. The company has been able to grow their dividends at about a 10% clip. They continue to add megawatts to their power grid, basically in solar and wind. There is a lot of growth moving forward because they have had to retrofit from coal to gas, but also added more solar which is good for the environment and for their coffers. Dividend yield of 2.7%. (Analysts’ price target is US$150.50.)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Past Pick. April 5/12. Up 30.81%.)

TOP PICK

Primarily a US utility with most of their activity in Florida. This is interesting because of the call on renewable energy coming back in favour. Nice generating platform and a good pipeline of projects to upgrade their generating capability.

TOP PICK

Wind power in Florida, Good growth rate and in cash flow. Low variable cost of energy once sunk costs are there. Dividend will grow, stock is pretty fully valued. If US cuts back on programs to build new wind power, that will make more cash available to grow the dividend.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 23/09. No change.) Regulated utility in Florida as well as largest generator of wind/solar power in the US. Stock fell because of an adverse ruling. Still likes. One of the highest growth utilities globally. Good balance sheet. Above 4% yield. Long-term hold.

TOP PICK

One of the best dividend growth profiles in North America. Strong balance sheet. 3.5% dividend. Expect earnings and dividends will rise by at least single-digit rate for years to come.

BUY

Florida utility that has a portion of their power from both wind and solar. If Obama is successful in bringing in a “cap and trade” system on emissions, it would be a huge win for them. 3.25% yield.

TOP PICK

Half business is regulated power generation in Florida. Built a position. Highest growth profile amongst utilities. Attractive entry point. Not much risk. Should be core holding. Long-term hold.

TOP PICK

Some of the diversified utilities are well-positioned. Their rate structure is based on a cost plus so oil prices do not affect them. As the economy grows, more power will be required.
