Hot Energy Companies To Buy Right Now

A renewal in renewables tax credits and incentives have spurred continued growth of wind, solar, and other alternative energy sources. Several utilities took the opportunity of Earth Day to announce their latest acquisitions and advancements. Let's see if these dividend stocks' efforts to go green can put some greenbacks in your portfolio.

Southern goes solar
Southern Company's (NYSE: SO  ) Georgia Power announced today that it is adding on another 250 MW in wind to its power purchases. The renewable energy will be sourced from EDP Renewables' Oklahoma wind farms, and will provide enough power (at peak) to electrify 50,000 Georgia homes. But Georgians will have to wait for wind ��the first purchases aren't scheduled to hit home until 2016.

This latest announcement comes six months after the company announced a similar solar initiative, whereby Southern will contract 210 MW of solar power from customers and solar developers over the next two years. But Southern has a lot of greening to go: 52% of its 43,500 MW of generation capacity comes from coal, with another 30% from oil and gas.

  Berman pioneered the idea of the World Poker Tour (WPT) and sold the concept to the Travel Channel. Watching poker on television had always been boring since the viewing audience could not see the down cards which the players held. Berman remedied that problem by allowing a camera to expose the down cards to the TV audience. That idea suddenly transformed Texas Holdem into a fascinating spectator�� sport. By the end of 2003 the stock had reached its book value of 15 dollars a share and I decided to take my profits, perhaps a bit prematurely. The stock quickly climbed to about 30 dollars a share on sheer momentum.

  As a result, the knives have come out. Cowen’s analysts downgraded six stocks–Baker Hughes (BHI), Cameron International (CAM), Nabors Industries (NBR), CGG (CGG), Superior Energy Services (SPN) and Helmerich & Payne (HP)–and cut their estimates on even more. Its analysts explain why:

• [By Richard Moroney, Editor, Dow Theory Forecasts]

  Helmerich & Payne (HP) has paid a dividend without interruption since 1959 and raised the distribution in 40 straight years.

  Following a pair of hikes in less than 12 months, Helmerich's quarterly dividend stands at $0.50 per share, compared to $0.07 per share a year ago.

• [By Robert Rapier]

  My opinion is that in this space Helmerich & Payne (NYSE: HP) looks better with respect to most metrics and pays a 3 percent dividend to boot. We recommended HP to subscribers in February, and it has returned more than 25 percent since. UNT hasn’t done too badly by comparison; it is up nearly 14 percent over the same time frame. But I would still favor HP today when I stack it up against UNT. HP’s debt is lower, its price/earnings ratio is lower, its volatility is lower, and its profit margin is higher than UNT’s.
