		<description><![CDATA[Historically, the growth outlook of alternative energy companies has been inversely related to the prices of petroleum products and directly related to the state of the economy. While that relationship remains in place, other macroeconomic uncertainties are weighing on the sector’s fortunes. The more notable of such recent headwinds has the Euro-zone debt crisis, which has been a threat to the global economy. The overall fear of contagion emanating from Europe has significantly subsided lately, though the region is expected to undergo an economic downturn as a result of the episode. The outlook for the U.S. economy has meaningfully stabilized, with a host of variables showing distinct improvement over the last few months. The question now is with respect to the impact that the slowdown in China and recession in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ReneSola Ltd.&#8217;s (SOL) significant presence in the solar module original equipment manufacturing (OEM) market is currently slated to underperform, owing to Europe&#8217;s challenging financing environment. The near-term valuation of the company will be adversely impacted by tepid solar products demand in Europe (especially Germany). Rising competition, credit risk from its customers, oversupply glut of solar wafer and modules in the market, and the company&#8217;s high R&#38;D expenses are our reasons behind this view. Given the industry-wide high inventory level, we believe performance is only going to be downhill going forward. We advise investors to exit from the stock for now and look for a favorable entry point in the future. We are apprehensive over any near-term margin recovery for the company given the industry trend of cascading average selling prices. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the backdrop of an industry-wide glut, ReneSola Ltd. (SOL) in the third quarter of 2011 incurred an adjusted loss per American Depositary Share (ADS) of 25 cents, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 18 cents. The quarterly loss also was way below the year-ago quarterly earnings of 70 cents. Operational Results In the reported quarter, ReneSola’s revenues fell 47.3% year over year to $189.1 million, short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $219 million. The decrease in revenues was driven by a decline in the average selling price (ASP) of solar wafers and modules. ReneSola’s product shipments were 328.5 MW versus 324.9 MW (up 11.2%) in the year-ago quarter. In the reported quarter, solar wafer and module shipments were 294.8 MW and 33.7 MW, respectively.

Earlier in August 2011, ReneSola had announced a repurchase program of $100 million of its ADSs. The focus of the company in increasing value for its shareholder is evident from the $100 million program as the current market capitalization of the company is only $260 million. ReneSola at the end of the second quarter of 2011 had cash and cash equivalents of $480.8 million, compared with $435.9 million at the end of the sequentially preceding quarter.

Operational Results Suntech registered total net revenues of $743.7 million, an increase of 19% from $625.1 million in the second quarter of 2010 and an increase of 57.2% from $473.1 million in the third quarter of 2009.

		<description><![CDATA[Massachusetts-based Evergreen Solar Inc.’s (ESLR) fortunes look sunnier in England after a panel variant of the company, ES-A series qualified for the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) of the United Kingdom&#8217;s Department of Energy. The certification is mandatory for solar panels to be used for the Renewables Cash-Back Scheme and therefore, vital for Evergreen Solar. The Renewables Cash-Back Scheme has been active in the UK since April 2010. Per the scheme, homeowners and communities along the coast who install solar panels are even paid for the electricity they generate and consume themselves. Given the fact that the UK has more than 19,000 miles of coastline, the certification is an early Christmas gift for Evergreen Solar. Evergreen Solar’s spotlight on U.K. comes at an opportune moment with The UK Renewable Energy Strategy ]]></description>
