It's been a wild ride in the energy sector lately. With so much uncertainty in the oil and gas sector, this month it's probably better for investors to just avoid the whole mess and focus on other areas of the energy sector. Compelling energy stocks right now include NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE), Brookfield Renewable Partners (NYSE: BEP), and Clearway Energy (NYSE: CWEN)(NYSE: CWEN.A).

NRG Yield (CWEN) doesn't possess the right combination of the two key ingredients for a likely earnings beat in its upcoming report. Get prepared with the key expectations.

Clearway Energy Operating LLC (“Clearway Operating”), a subsidiary of Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CWEN, CWEN.A) (“Clearway Energy”), has priced its upsized offering of $250 million in aggregate principal amount of its 4.750% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Additional Notes”). The Additional Notes will be issued at 102.0% of par, plus accrued interest from December 11, 2019. The Additional Notes are being offered as an additional issue of Clearway Operating’s existing $600 million aggregate principal amount of 4.750% Senior Notes due 2028 that Clearway Operating issued on December 11, 2019 (the “Initial Notes”).

Bloom Energy's (BE) first-quarter loss is narrower than expected and revenues surpass estimates.

The stock market has staged an amazing comeback from its bottom in March. One of those is clean-energy producer Clearway Energy (NYSE: CWEN) (NYSE: CWEN.A). Clearway Energy is a renewable yieldco, which means it focuses on generating renewable energy that it sells under long-term, fixed-rate contracts, and uses the stable cash flow to pay a high-yielding dividend.

Clearway Energy (CWEN) delivered earnings and revenue surprises of -500.00% and 11.21%, respectively, for the quarter ended March 2020. Do the numbers hold clues to what lies ahead for the stock?

Now may be the time to transition your portfolio from oil stocks to renewable energy stocks. Here are five picks to get you started.

Clearway Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CWEN, CWEN.A) (“Company”), today announced that, through indirect subsidiaries of the Company, it has closed a transaction to divest its residential solar portfolio for cash proceeds to the Company of $75 million1. Additionally, the Company has also closed the previously announced agreement to acquire Clearway Group’s (CEG) interest in Repowering Partnership II LLC (Repowering 1.0) for $70 million. “The divesture of Clearway’s residential solar portfolio allows the Company to use proceeds from the sale of a non-core asset to prudently recycle capital into strategic investments more aligned with the Company’s platform and operating strengths,” said Christopher Sotos, Clearway Energy, Inc.’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

Clearway Energy (CWEN) continues to expand the clean electricity generation portfolio through systematic acquisition of renewable assets.

Oil stocks have grown in popularity among some investors as crude prices have crashed and taken the industry's market caps down with them. Among oil's many problems is that renewable energy will be a major disruptive force in the broader energy sector in the coming decades. Because of that, long-term investors would be better served to consider buying a renewable energy company instead of one focused on oil.

(NYSE: CWEN, CWEN.A) (“Clearway Energy”), intends to commence an offering of $200 million in aggregate principal amount of its 4.750% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Additional Notes”).
