Listen to the cleantech and climate change podcast on Spotify

Clean energy stocks are on the move today following news that U.S. Senate Democrats have agreed on climae and energy llegislation for a new reconciliation package that would result in investing nearly $370 Billion in the clean energy sector.

This deal will be the biggest amount of funding ever allocated to tackling climate change.

At the time of this podcast Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ: PLUG) is leading the pack up over 24 % on the day, FuelCell Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCEL) is up 5.8%, Bloom Energy Corporation (NYSE: BE) is up over 15%, solar stocks gain including SunPower Corporation ( NASADAQ: SPWR) up over 16% and Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (NASDAQ: CLNE) is up over 5%.

Don’t be surpised to find out down the road that leading Democrats and Nancy Pelosi’s husband invested in the sector prior to this agreement . But if all you have to pay is a $100 fine for insider trading to see a sector move like this did today; I guess we would all pay the $100.

Thanks, that’s it for today. Do something good for this beautiful planet each and every day.
