Energy can’t be produced, energy can’t be destroyed, it can only be transformed from one form to another. The use of energy used to define the prosperity of a Nation. In today’s world, prosperity has a new definition. Today what matters more is what is the source of energy, is it clean energy, is it renewable or is it coming with cost and burden of the guilt of killing mother earth?

India has started its journey towards clean and renewable energy a few years back and is well on track to meet or beat its commitment of protecting our beloved planet and is on the cusp of an energy revolution.

Did you know

  1. India is the third-largest producer and second-largest consumer of electricity.
  2. India was ranked fourth in wind power, fifth in solar power and fifth in renewable power installed capacity in 2018.
  3. The government is aiming to achieve 225 GW of renewable energy capacity (including 114 GW of solar capacity addition and 67 GW of wind power capacity) by 2022, more than its 175 GW target as per the Paris Agreement.
  4. India added 2,320 MW of solar capacity amidst COVID-19 pandemic from January to September 2020
  5. Bhadla Solar Park is the largest solar park in the world as of 2020 and is spread over a total area of 5,700 hectares in Bhadla, Phalodi tehsil, Jodhpur district, Rajasthan, India. The park has a total capacity of 2245 MW

These are only some points, for complete details you can look at sector report from ibef.org and look for renewable energy and power. India has not only committed to clean energy but is also taking action.

The goal of this blog is to create wealth, hence in the next few blogs, we will see how we can benefit from this revolution and contribute to it.

I have been investing in stocks for about 2 years now but I have till date never written about stocks. The question is why now. The reason is simple, till date I felt like I knew next to nothing. In last two year I have read articles and books from a lot of gurus. Based on knowledge gained and also based on my experiences in last two years I think I am now ready to share my experiences. One more reason is when I started investing in stocks I was misguided a lot by reading message boards. Every one posting on message board seemed to act like a Guru so I felt there was need for some one like me to write honestly without pumping or dumping a stock. I will write only about stocks I own. I would also disclose how many stocks I own. I am in no way a rich guy so my quantities would be small but because I am not rich I would not risk small amounts of money. Before I start writing I would like to ask people to do their research on any company. I am not a very savvy investor. Most of my stocks a

Stock updates: Apple

Apple is going from strength to strength. It is difficult to get in at a good price on this very stock. I owned happen when it was 60 and sold it at 72. Since then the price has gone up so quickly that I have been unable to get in. Apple dropped 5 1/2% today. I would wait a little more in hopes that I am able to buy it below 140. Meanwhile Apple has a good news for us, in effect 2 good news. First not so good news. You can now rent movies from itunes. There is nothing new to it has other people already allow you to rent or buy videos for example you can rent or buy videos from Amazon thru DealsEZ.com Video Deals . Now a better news. Apple has just released MacBook Air. The thinnest notebook you have ever seen. The specifications of the notebook are impressive for its size and weight. You would be wondering how thin it is. It is only .76 inches and weighs less than 3 pound. I think right now you would be more entrusted in buying the notebook than the share of Apple itself. You can p

Gold, the metal that has been for ages considered a solid investment and has been passed along generation. Gold a metal that is considered a safe haven during times like today where there is too much uncertainty. In the last 20 years, gold prices have risen 10 times but buying physical gold has its own set of problems, like safety, making charges, concerns regarding the purity, liquidity and we all wish there was a better way to invest in gold. If only !!! If only, I had invested Rs 500 in the year 2000 to buy 1gram of gold. It would have worth Rs 5000 now, a cool 10x growth in wealth. If only, I could buy and sell gold like I buy stocks. If only, I could get some interest on the money invested like FD If only, I would not have to pay for Making charges If only, my gold was safe and secure If only, I could trust the purity Wish Granted As if RBI was listening to all your wishes and answer is Sovereign gold bonds . You can buy gold digitally and it will answer all the "if only"
