Brookfield Renewable Energy (BEP.UN-T) is a global player in the renewable energy space, with a diverse portfolio including wind, solar, and hydro assets. The company has faced headwinds from higher interest rates and project costs but is still viewed as a strong long-term investment due to its focus on renewables, solid cash flow, and the support of its strong parent company. Some experts express concerns about the company's leverage and volatility, while others highlight its potential for growth and the recent bottoming of share price as a good buying opportunity.

Consensus
Positive
Valuation
Fair Value
BUY

Owns shares of company in portfolio. Likes renewable sector. Higher interest rates tough on business. If interest rates fall, will be good for bottom line. Lots of support from parent company allows for lots of options. Would recommend holding and/or buying. 

Utilities
BUY

Her play in the space. More diversified with wind, solar, and hydro. Global. Positive growth prospects long term. Move towards renewables isn't going to change. Impacted by interest rates. Well managed, access to capital.

Utilities
DON'T BUY

Unsure of fundamentals of company. Does not own stock. Trend line is down. Not a good time to buy. Wait for trend to reverse before buying. 

Utilities
DON'T BUY

A lot more debt and uncertainty, so you'll get a lot more volatility. Complicated structures. Instead, look to pipeline names for a higher dividend and maybe some rebound in capital appreciation.

Utilities
BUY ON WEAKNESS

Good tail winds for the business at this time. Recent bottoming of share price a good time to buy. Strong parent company. Well positioned for 10% growth. 72% payout ratio. Price to growth ratio very good. Good time to buy. 

Utilities
PARTIAL SELL

Cost of capital makes a lot of projects uneconomic. Increased costs can be passed through, but rate changes can take 3-5 years to be approved. Good franchise. Doesn't want to be in the space. Take some money off the table.

Utilities
DON'T BUY

Brookfield in general keeps restructuring, so watch which assets they're moving around. He's owned many of the Brookfield companies, but not BEP right now. Renewables are suffering stretched PEs, driven by ESG investing, but ESG is seeing some pushback in the U.S. given the political divide there. Also, renewables are suffering under high rates, but over the long haul such rates are a plus. Doesn't expect much upside here.

BEP.UN has struggled along with most income stocks, with higher rates the main reason. It is still growing its revenue and cash flow nicely. Payout ratio is about 80% currently (last 12 months). The distribution was raised in February. We do not think it is at any risk in the medium term.

Long-term, an attractive sector. Renewable space facing headwinds from interest rates and project costs. Diversified in wind, solar, hydro, and uranium. Large cap, global scale.

Utilities
WEAK BUY

Concerns that Europeans have capped returns on some assets. Pretty solid company that does a good job acquiring. Don't invest just because of the Westinghouse partnership with CCO, as nuclear faces headwinds right now. See his Top Picks for his choice in the sector.

BEPC is now trading at 13.3x times' EV/EBITDA. BEPC generates predictable revenue and solid cash flow due to the recurring nature of its renewable power assets. The balance sheet is leveraged with $13.1B in net debt, and the net debt/EBITDA is around 5.1x. We think BEPC is trading quite cheap with an attractive yield which is covered quite well by cash flow. High interest rates are headwinds for leveraged companies and capital intensive businesses. However, given the track record of healthy cash flow profile, we would be comfortable averaging into BEPC over time.

It is one of the largest owners of renewable assets. The renewables space has been under pressure lately with increasing interest rates and commodity prices but he still likes it. The company is able to pass along the costs of inflation. The dividend is 6%.

Utilities
HOLD

Rallied when Democrats got into power, got ahead of itself. Higher interest rates have been a headwind. Likes it. Quite large, global player, involved in different sources of renewable energy. Westinghouse gives them niche entry into nuclear. Most cashflows are inflation-protected. Relatively attractive yield of 4.5%.
