Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

A quick read of its headlines reveals three strong moves in as many months, with Ascent's aggressive managemen...More

The manufacturing process and technology developed by Nanosolar will revolutionize the industry, and PV developers like this one will either adapt or suffer the consequences. Nanosolar has finally placed solar power on a competitive plain with coal from a price perspective.

Great play on latest Solar film technology. Just started production and already has landed partners in Spain and France. Risky, but they appear to be on a roll.

I happen to hate the whole alternative energy thing. However I see China trying to create the image that they are the leading edge in such endeavors. I see the Chinese Government subsidizing and giving tax breaks to alterbnative energy companies.

thin film CIGS is going to rage once it is rolled out in quantity. ASTI has US AirForce development contract to cover R&D expenses and they won't let it fail. Norwegian Aluminum building materials with great grip on raw materials will take ASTI into the solar PV building materials leadership in Europe which will lead the world in the changeover to alternative energy
