Spaceparallax - As an aside I have a European renewables set of this, Renewable Energy Holdings (REH) & Novera (NVE): if you look at the range of NVE's activities, including those in the joint venture that it will be dissolving and taking over, then it has a similar gassy focus to ALK - but landfill gas & waste gasification - with the addition of substantial onshore wind. As for ALK both NVE and REH are approaching profitable trading within the next 12-18 months IMHO. They are my three long term green picks.
