Coal/alternate energy industry
Article Abstract:
Independent power producers will likely enter the electric utility market after deregulation by California and other states. Since consolidation is probable, utilities will be able to demand lower coal prices and inhibit competition for smaller companies. Markets are expanding in China, India, and other Asian countries for independent producers, as well. Only AES Corp is expected to outperform the market, but other stocks have potential.

Coal/alternate energy industry
Article Abstract:
Independent power producers (IPPs) have a good economic future in the more competitive electrical industry. IPPs have an economic advantage with newer, low-cost, and state-of-the art power plants over the older generating plants, 25% of which are now obsolete. South America and Asia also present opportunities abroad. IPPs have an attractive, long-term earnings growth potential, but have foreign market and regulatory risks.

Coal/alternate energy industry
Article Abstract:
Stranded asset recovery and transmission access are electric utility deregulation issues that are affecting the coal and alternate energy industries. The larger independent power providers are focusing on non-US markets, and since non-competitive nuclear power-plants are decommissioned, the coal industry is expected to gain a larger domestic market share. Individual stocks must be evaluated prior to investment.
