Here in I will give you 5 solid reasons why you should invest in energy stocks, ETF’s, and options. I will provide some recommendations as well to watch.

1. Electric is heading our way, no matter what.
Everyone by now has heard of, seen, or been flabbergasted by Tesla… But, they are not a real automotive company. They are a software company that makes batteries that work great in cars. Electricity is a concept that society has had for over a century! Yet in the last decade, we’ve been able to do so much more than we even imagined! Alternatives to gas are here and nearly all products are heading that direction to leave petroleum-based products.
2. Electricity is the real winner
When it comes to fuels, gasoline engines (cars, generators, etc) are roughly 30-35% efficient. This means out of 10lbs of gasoline, only 3lbs are being properly utilized. The rest is consumed as waste, such as heat.
Electricity based engines and components are roughly 85-90% efficient, which is drastically higher. But heat is still a factor of loss.
3. Efficiency
From the above, electric vehicles are very efficient and electricity is cheap. You can essentially get more distance, bang, and savings for your buck. The efficiency has gone up over the years and alternatives fuels are popping up all over the world.
Simple note:
Yes, electricity is produced primarily by fossil fuels so the gas is necessary. But electricity is more efficient.
4. Limitless potential
We, as a society, are constantly pushing the threshold of what batteries can do. They are more energy dense by the month. There are battery’s that are made of algae, which sounds crazy but exists. Green energy is still being explored and developed by the hour and who knows what 10 years will do.
5. The Sun is a power house
Solar technologies are dominating since they are becoming more efficient and effective. We have lower prices now and much more energy capacity. According to the NREL (NATIONAL RENEWABLE ENERGY LAB), 100% energy efficient solar cells have been developed and that means they will be public soon! The numbers will only increase.
Some tickers to watch!
Simple warning:
We am NOT liable for any losses or bad decisions. We are simply providing information that is knowledge for you to see. Please trade and invest at your own risk.
Tickers for energy:
- PLUG – plug power (They make fuel cells alternatively to gas based energy)
- FCEL – Fuel Cell (gas alternative fuel cells)
- TSLA – Tesla (they make batteries and battery software, electrical vehicle infrastructure)
- BLNK – Blink charging (electrical vehicle infrastructure)
IDEX – ide - ENG – ENGLOBAL Corp (engineering solutions to energy industry)

There are many more tickers, but we don’t want to take all the fun of you getting to explore.
Upcoming ipo to watch for
Charge Point (electrical vehicle infrastructure)
Simple conclusion:
This is a sector to keep in mind! There are dozens of other sectors but energy is hot in line with climate change. President Joe Biden will only help these stocks.
