With the economy in turmoil, many investors are very focused right now on the future of green energy. In this special publication, Winslow puts the current economic environment in perspective and provides a comprehensive review of the industry's potential for a bright future.

March 15, 2009 (Boston) -- Winslow Management Company, a pioneer in the field of green investing since 1983, today announced the release of "Green Energy at the Crossroads," a special white paper edition of the firm's environmental publication, Winslow Environmental News.

"Green Energy at the Crossroads" is offered as an educational white paper, and is also available within the most recent edition of Winslow Environmental News. Winslow's newsletters and white papers are available free of charge.

The world has embraced the cause of fighting climate change, and the green energy industry has undergone profound growth. At the same time, recent economic events have left many to wonder whether green energy can continue to thrive in the face of the difficult financial choices facing consumers, governments, and businesses.

"Green Energy at the Crossroads" addresses this question directly and concludes that the future for green energy appears bright. The piece examines the prospects for the industry from a wide variety of perspectives, including:

  • Projections for long-term growth in energy demand
  • Oil market dynamics such as supply constraints and rising marginal costs of production
  • Energy security issues stemming from dependence on oil
  • Vulnerability of centralized energy, and the emergence of distributed energy as a cost-effective replacement
  • Decreasing attractiveness of coal as an option for new power generation facilities
  • Apparent ability to obtain financing for large renewable energy projects, even given currently tight credit conditions
  • Rapid price / performance improvement of clean energy technologies
  • The "green invasion" in Detroit and around the world, as the auto industry shifts its focus to fuel efficiency and electric alternatives
  • Building momentum for tackling climate change
  • The "Obama factor" and the prospect for clean energy as a spearhead in the new administration’s plan for economic recovery

"Several years ago, green energy looked like an excellent investment opportunity, and that still appears to be true today," said Jack Robinson, President of Winslow. "We anticipate a bright future with many years of growth and potential profit to come."
