Tip on solar energy: It comes and goes with the high-tech industry... remember what was watering the seeds for solar energy to boom the last decade.

PS: Never been a fan of solar energy... I doubt they'll ever get 40% over their whole cell. Bandgap engineering over the entire visible spectrum is tough.
Personally I base my investments both on financial potential AND moral ethics; I have always been a advocate of saving the planet's resources, and further expoiting the wasted energy of the sun.

Moreover, the current boom on solar energy does not come from the technical advances, those have been quite consistent the past years, however, it's due to the ever-rising oil price paired with society's interest in green energy. Perfect match.
