7 Solar Stocks Leading the Clean Energy Boom - 6 of 7

 
 

#6 - NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE)

NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE) is not a pure-play solar stock by any means. However, it is one of North America's largest overall energy providers. So if you’re buying NEE stock, it’s on the premise that its “all of the above” approach will be a winning strategy.

And the company is posting revenue and earnings growth to back up the recent run-up in NEE stock. However, unlike many stocks on this list, NextEra stock is down in 2022. And the stock price is bumping up against the consensus estimate.

This leads to similar questions about the valuation of NEE. But recent price target increases since the company’s earnings report in August suggest that there may be a higher ceiling for the stock.

And, even if that doesn’t happen, NextEra offers an attractive dividend. In fact, the company is a member of the exclusive Dividend Aristocrats club this year and has increased its dividend in each of the last 28 years.
