Taking 'Stock' In Sustainability: How 'Green' Investments Are Shaping The Market

AZFL

Coral Gables, FL / ACCESSWIRE / November 17, 2014 / The drain on the environment continues to be an issue in today's society. There's a constant push for alternatives to nearly everything we've used for the last 50 years. Where there once was heavy use in natural gas, we now have solar & wind and when people once didn't know the extremes of water pollution we now have firms specializing in its remediation. According to Verdantix Critical Moments(R), a globally scalable model that sizes, forecasts and describes the direction of sustainable business spending, the US sustainable business expenditure will total more than $43Billion by 2017. Nearly 33% of all sustainability spending will be from the energy and basic resource sectors. With so much attention on this effort by major corporations, there is obvious opportunity to capitalize on this market. Several stocks have begun to "clean up" with environmentally focused business models this quarter.

Ecosciences, Inc. (OTC:ECEZ) subsidiary, Eco-logical Concepts focuses on bioremediation and offers a product line of dissolvable tablets that have been designed to make fluid collection systems and treatment facilities more efficient; this includes anything from grease traps at restaurants to large water treatment centers. Though the stock has a very limited trading history, interest has begun to build over the last 24 hours. Ecoscience's bio-remediation products under the brands TRAP-EZE, SEPT-EZE, TANK-EZE and WASH-EZE have been a central focus for much of this attention.

Solar3D, Inc. (OTC:SLTD) continues to climb in price since announcing its SUNworks division will be offering "Battery Storage Systems". Overall the stock has climbed 50% since September 18 to Friday's closing price. At one point the stock even saw highs of $0.3149 earlier this month following the announcement that Solar3D had acquired MD Energy, LLC, a California-based solar systems provider. "The acquisition of MD Energy is a perfect complement to our SUNworks subsidiary, which is growing very rapidly in Northern California," said Jim Nelson, Solar3D's CEO.

Aside from sustainability spending, the US solar market has also seen a massive increase in revenues resulting from solar panel installation. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association, 53% of all new electric capacity installed has come from solar during the first half of the year. The industry as a whole is currently valued at nearly $14Billion and projected to grow at a 12.2% CAGR from 2014-2020 according to a recent release from Grand View Research, Inc.

Amazonas Florestal Ltd (OTC:AZFL) focuses on sustainable forest management. In its most recent quarterly filing, the company states that it is currently attempting to fulfill its second order from a U.K. based railroad supply company, for US $2.64M Dollars in Railroad Ties. Amazonas owns 114,990 acres of virgin Rain Forest, located the state of Amazonas in Brazil. Most recently the company purchased five properties in the municipality of Borba, State of Amazonas, Brazil, which adds approximately 25,000 acres to Amazonas land holdings and will increase the Company's timber inventories by approximately 5%. Recent attention from the investment community seems to have picked up based on new trade opportunities that have arisen in conjunction with the overall price per share and state of Amazonas' share structure.

Sustainability can come in many forms. Whether its eco-friendly logging or wastewater remediation, the market opportunities continue to present themselves as the world works toward a "brighter future". With more and more money being spent on "green" initiatives, the investment potential grows larger as companies become more conscious of the downside effect that industry as a whole has had on the environment. In fact, the US government has spent more than $90Billion to "lay the foundation for the clean energy economy of the future". For well-placed investments, the profit opportunity could increase as these industries continue to progress further in generating more public support as well as government backing.
