Business/Finance See other Business/Finance Articles Title: “The Greatest Leap of Mankind… Unlimited FREE Energy” (Dr. Kent Moors’ Picks Revealed) Yes, this is the stock that has almost singlehandedly destroyed a handful of hedge funds this year: SunEdison (SUNE). I used to know a little bit about SunEdison many years ago, back when they were MEMC Electronic Materials and were a producer of the high quality polysilicon wafers used in semiconductors and, later, solar panels. For a while there they had a nice pricing advantage, they got a good foothold on the wafer business partly because they were a serial acquirer, and demand was high… but the story has changed a bit in the years since then, they bought SunEdison back in 2009 and they’ve more recently moved to jettison the wafer production and become more of a “pure” solar company with a focus on large, utility-scale solar projects like those that SunEdison was just starting to complete six years ago, and before long they changed the name of the company to match this new focus. Fabian says: It’s SUNE and he’s touting it since it was in the 30s! And yesterday he wrote urging us to average down. I’m glad that when I subscribe to a letter I paper trade for at least 6 months before I follow any reco. It was reco Nov 1 at $ 7.5 with a stop at 30% that was cancelled with a reco to average down yesterday. This stock is stuck in the mother of all down trends. There is no hope for it unless it climbs back to ca. $ 6. sw: We short it everytime they tout a company. Everytime we make money. I like them very much, they are better than Citreon Research. Faz says: Thanks for the detailed writeup – very interesting. I think I’ll stick with NatCore (NXT in Canada) as my solar transformational moonshot hopeful. They have a number of aces up their sleeves for reducing solar cell manufacturing costs and increasing capture / conversion efficiencies. Every now and again they reach another milestone and the share price kicks up for a while. It’s in Brien Lundin’s stable. ccarter says: Great news. I was one of the few people in America that didn’t get Moors garbage sent to my inbox. That is because I spent 2 months trying to get my money back from one of his worthless newsletters and another 3 weeks to get removed from his mailing list. Take note people. Moors and Money Map Press may be dangerous to your financial health. Maybe the government should require a warning label on their newsletters. ELISSA JUNG says: IN MY UNEDUCATED AND OUT OF THE BOX THINKING I THINK SOLAR WILL BE PASSE VERY SOON. IT SHALL BE REPLACED WITH BATTERIES. NO, NOT THE LITHIUM-ION BATTERY BUT THE LITHIUM-AIR BATTERY. ONCE THE MEN IN WHITE COATS FIND A WAY TO OBTAIN HIGH ENOUGH LEVELS OF OXYGEN TO ‘IGNITE’ THE POWER, YOUR HOUSE, FACTORY, WORLD WILL BE BATTERY OPERATED. GIVEN THE 20 YEAR OR SO AND DECREASING EFFICIENTANCY SHELF LIFE OF A SOLAR PANEL THE LITHIUM-AIR BATTERY WILL BE A WELCOME RELIEF. olaf says: Anyone who buys a stock based on a newsletter rec. alone is crazy. These guys get compensated to tout stocks. Cramer admitted it a while back on a YT video. You have got to learn technical analysis. It isn’t hard. Big Charts has free (though, not real time) charts of all US stocks. Every recommendation I get, I put on a chart. Kent Moors consistently touts stocks in down trends. Maybe he is shorting them?! Travis Johnson, Stock Gumshoe, author of this article, says: November 18, 2015 at 9:29 pm The immediate problem as I see it is that they sold off some of the income-producing assets at what were now, in retrospect, high prices to their yieldcos, and the model was built on them being able to sell off more assets at high prices to continue funding their construction and expansion debt. Now that the yieldcos are unable to raise cheap equity to buy more from SUNE, the worry is that there won’t be buyers at the prices they were expecting — apparently disinterested third parties are always willing to buy these plants, but they don’t want to pay what the yieldcos, which SUNE created, were willing to pay. That, too, can be worked through if they can get through this challenging period and if their product and their assets are as strong as believed — but the specifics and the short term matter quite a lot because of the huge amount of debt on the books and the extent to which that leaves them without much flexibility or wiggle room. All young companies do not go through these problems, and SunEdison is by no means a new company — they’ve been around for more than 50 years. Their business model now is new and different than it was during much of their history, but it’s not necessarily common to see a company try to do this much aggressive debt-fueled growth in a year. Not trying to argue that SUNE will fail, I haven’t looked through their debt maturities or the quality or status of their construction projects and I know there are still plenty of investors who are wiser than I am who are quite confident they’ll recover, I just want to plant the seed of skepticism. Maybe unnecessary, since the stock has clearly taken a beating already and given up all of the gains that the debt-fueled growth binge brought them, but it is possible for bad news to become worse news, particularly when you’re dealing with debt. Wolfgang Wiebach says: I wish writers about solar panels would stop to intermingle “Watts” and “KWH” without further specifications. Watt is a measure of the ongoing POWER output a system can deliver (provided the sun is shining). KWH is a measure of the ENERGY the system has delivered or is expected to deliver in a certain time span, which may be a day, a week, a month or a year. So talking about some KWH without specifying the time is completely meaningless. ughly half the design maximum designation. The only reason to translate to KWH is so you can arrive at a dollar figure to use in amortization of your system to see if you make,, lose,, or break even on your investment in the lifetime of your system. For most cases , few actually make any profit unless heavily subsidized by taxpayers. Obfuscation is the norm for those selling systems . caveat emptor. fa arch1 says: wolfgang and travis The exact definition of a watt is one volt multiplied by one ampere so watts is maximum generating capacity or rate,for instance 12 volts times 4 amperes equals 48 watts ,,, 24 volts times 2 amperes is exactly the same 48 watts. solar cells are low voltage per cell so it takes several to get useful amounts of power and that is also the maximum ,,,when the sun is most directly shining on them. Say between 10 am and 2pm and when the cells are new. other times the output drops considerably as it also does as the cell ages and becomes less efficient. KWH is strictly a quantity equalling 1000 watts for one hour. So if your panel can produce 1000 watts you will attain that rate for less than 4 hours a day. In a bright sunny day you may get 6 to 8 KWH. Hope that helps your assessment. fa Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest

The thing about solar is that you need a bank of deep cycle batteries to store the excess power for it to be used when the sun does not shine. That is an enormous expense and should be considered before you decide to "go solar". Anything would be better than the dilapidated power grid we now depend on. Screw those Congresscowards for not heeding the words of former Georgia Rep. Roscoe Bartlett and upgrading the grid so there would not be a major blackout. Bartlett is now living off the grid back in the woods in Georgia. They have plenty of money for ISIS, why not the people to whom this nation belongs? Oh, that's right. We are all slaves. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
That's right. And rechargeable batteries don't last forever -- they need to be replaced periodically. Some types of batteries are more durable than others -- they permit more charge/discharge cycles -- but they all wear out eventually. None are really environmentally friendly. There are other ways to store the energy other than using batteries. But most are relatively expensive and very impractical for small installations. You can easily store a lot of energy in the form of heat -- say, in a water heater -- but converting the heat back to electrical energy is not practical.
They had a typical place up in Evanston, Illinois. It was the Evanston Environmental Association. The building at the Arboretum was heated with water barrels inside of a greenhouse. It gave off quite a bit of warmth during the winter season. Even on colder days, the barrels would warm in the sun and then return the heat at night. They even had a small wind turbine on top of the building to power the lights. This was a very long time ago and I'm not sure if it is still there. www.laddarboretum.org/ ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
Youtube has lots of videos regarding free or alternative energy. Many are do it yourself videos or show off videos. Sterling engines , fresnel heaters, ram pump turbines, verticle windmills, atmospheric static collectors (Not practical imho) hydrogen, conventional solar.... many many MANY ways to make your own electricty or otherwise meet your energy needs. And money is not as big of an obstacle as the investment of time and knowledge. Harbor freight has seriously affordable solar options. ______________________________________ Suspect all media / resist bad propaganda/Learn NLP everyday everyway ;) If you don't control your mind someone else will.
In my youth I built a crystal set radio which during stormy weather was sparking at the crystal contact, indicating the antenna was picking up a current. Probably all the electrons carried in evaporating moisture on sunny days were coming down from the clouds. Who is Harbor freight?
Harbor freight is.a.new.chain box store. They sell tools and industrial cleaning products and all sorts of stuff. Most interesting is their solar aisle. Spesifically affordable inverters and panels. I could build a try to build a unit at the same price they sell units. Seriously affordable. I dont know how they can afford it buut i hope they keep expanding. Im sure.they have a.website. ______________________________________ Suspect all media / resist bad propaganda/Learn NLP everyday everyway ;) If you don't control your mind someone else will.
I made several -- great fun! Wonder if kids are doing so today. My father took me to see a gentleman with a literal radio shack and gave me the tour. I see his name lives on online ptly here "THE 20 YEAR OR SO AND DECREASING EFFICIENTANCY SHELF LIFE OF A SOLAR PANEL" - - where do dead panels go to die?
