4 Top Renewable Energy Stocks To Check Out In The Stock Market Today
When considering what stocks to buy today, investors may want to consider
renewable energy stocks
now. For the most part, this section of the
stock market
remains one of interest. After all, the global effects of climate change have and continue to worsen despite the world’s best efforts in recent years. So much so that climate change is reportedly making events such as the deadly floods in Germany up to 9 times more likely, according to the World Weather Attribution initiative. Meanwhile, carbon emissions from the global electric power sector are now surging past pre-pandemic levels according to London-based environmental think tank Ember.
What does all this mean for renewable energy stocks? Well, simply put, all of these factors would serve to drive demand for the industry’s services. This would be the case as countries across the globe seek to join the global green movement. If anything, the industry appears to be hard at work across the board as well. Earlier today, electric vehicle (EV) truck company
Lordstown Motors
(
NASDAQ: RIDE
) appointed Daniel Ninivaggi as its new CEO. With Ninivaggi’s background in the automotive and transportation industries, some would argue that Lordstown could be looking to jump-start its EV truck plans.
On top of that, companies in the solar energy space like
Daqo New Energy
(
NYSE: DQ
) are thriving as well. Just last week, Daqo reported solid figures in its second-quarter fiscal. This includes massive year-over-year jumps of 72% in total revenue and 178% in net income. Having read all of this, you might be keen on investing in the top renewable energy stocks in the
stock market today
. In that case, here are four worth noting now.

Tesla Inc.
Last but not least, we have
Tesla
, an electric vehicle and clean energy company. In essence, it designs and manufactures electric cars and energy storage. In 2020, the company had the most sales of battery electric vehicles and plug-in electric vehicles, capturing 16% of the plug-in market and 23% of the battery-electric market. The company’s Tesla Energy is a major installer of photovoltaic systems in the U.S.
While all that is great, Tesla does not seem to be slowing down on the operational front anytime soon. Earlier today, news broke that the company has begun delivery of its Model Ys in Europe ahead of schedule. To accomplish this, Tesla is now shipping some of the Model Ys from its Shanghai facility. This would be a strategic play by the company to keep up with rising demand in the region. Not to mention, Tesla continues to refine the tech behind its EV offerings as well. In particular, the company unveiled the brains of its supercomputer, Dojo.
According to CEO Elon Musk, the neural network training computer processes imaging data four times faster than regular computing systems. Ideally, this would provide a significant boost to its existing autonomous driving tech. Could all this make TSLA stock a top buy for you now?
