About the Clean Energy sector
Clean energy covers solar panel makers, wind developers, utilities investing in renewables, and the technology that stores and manages green power. The long-term story is the world's gradual move toward lower-carbon energy.
The sector is highly sensitive to interest rates and government policy, because renewable projects are capital-intensive and often supported by subsidies. That makes it more volatile than traditional utilities, with bigger swings in both directions.
