3 Clean Energy Stocks With Bullish Moving Average SignalsAuthored by Dan Schmidt. First Published: 4/8/2026. 
Key Points
- The traditional energy sector has gotten most of the recent headlines due to the Iran war, but the clean energy sector shouldn't be ignored either.
- Clean energy stocks have proven resilient despite regulatory headwinds, and demand for clean, reliable energy from data centers continues to grow.
- These three clean energy stocks have fundamental tailwinds and are now sending buying signals based on their moving averages.
- Special Report: Elon’s “Hidden” Company
The war in Iran has produced several new winners in the oil and gas industry, and energy is currently the only sector in the green for 2026. As crude prices continue to soar, that underscores the need for energy independence and a diverse mix of sources to secure the grid. While the traditional energy sector is getting most of the headlines, clean energy stocks have quietly been regaining strength. Several notable companies recently tested key levels on their 50- and 200-day moving averages, which could present attractive buying opportunities as we move into Q2. Demand and Efficiency Improvements Are Reducing the Need for SubsidiesWhen the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was signed last July, the clean energy sector looked vulnerable — especially companies in the solar industry. Residential solar credits were phased out after December 2025, and commercial solar credits are scheduled to expire at the end of 2026. Yet despite these regulatory headwinds, renewable energy stocks have performed well since the bill became law. The iShares Global Clean Energy ETF (NASDAQ: ICLN) is up more than 60% over the past 12 months, supported by a diverse mix of international and domestic holdings.

Why have clean energy stocks held up despite the OBBBA reducing renewable tax breaks and favoring fossil fuels? The reasons are multi-faceted, but investors tend to point to three main factors:
- Solar technology has matured to the point where it increasingly competes without heavy subsidies. Improvements in battery storage, faster construction timelines and streamlined permitting have reduced costs. Solar is still expected to account for more than 50% of the capacity additions projected for 2026.
- Nuclear and geothermal projects received relatively favorable treatment in the final bill. Nuclear projects remain eligible for tax credits through the original 2028 phaseout under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), and geothermal projects retain tax advantages through 2033.
- Rapid growth in AI data centers is driving steady demand for reliable power, and renewables are among the biggest beneficiaries. The International Energy Agency (IEA) projects that data centers could account for about 3% of global electricity consumption by 2030, roughly double current levels.
The renewable energy narrative has shifted from being primarily about subsidies to being driven by structural demand and technological improvements that deliver practical solutions to mass markets — with a cleaner future as an added benefit. As clean energy becomes more efficient and widespread, investors will likely want exposure across different parts of the industry. Each of the three stocks highlighted below operates in a different area of renewables and is showing bullish signs around key moving averages. Nextpower: High-Upside Solar Play With a $5 Billion BacklogSolar is a high-beta sector because its supply chain involves many volatile inputs. Nextpower Inc. (NASDAQ: NXT) designs systems that allow solar arrays to track the sun’s path throughout the day, reducing some of the cost volatility associated with panel and battery manufacturing. Management reported a backlog exceeding $5 billion in the company’s Q3 2026 earnings release in January, and revenue was up more than 30% year-over-year (YOY). 
NXT shares are up more than 20% year-to-date (YTD) and recently pulled back to the 50-day moving average (MA), which has acted as reliable support since the rally began last April. Despite occasional bear traps, this pullback could provide a tactical entry point for investors who believe the uptrend will continue. Ormat Technologies: Steady Geothermal Growth With Data Center ExposureOrmat Technologies Inc. (NYSE: ORA) is a pure-play geothermal company that has benefited from tax credits and rising demand from data centers. Growth is steadier and slower than high-flying solar names — revenue rose 12.5% YOY in the most recent quarter — but Ormat has predictable cash flows from long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with AI hyperscalers such as Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL). 
The stock trades at a lofty multiple — more than 50 times earnings — which is high for a company with mid-teens revenue growth. Still, bullish momentum in 2025 was notable, and shares have been consolidating after a period of range-bound action. The 200-day moving average has acted as strong support, and a bullish MACD crossover suggests upside momentum may resume. GE Verona: Diversified Renewables Exposure With Explosive Upside PotentialGE Verona (NYSE: GEV) may offer the most balanced exposure of the three names, thanks to diversified operations, meaningful data center revenue, and consistent support at its 50-day moving average. GEV posted the slowest revenue growth among these companies — about 3.5% YOY in its Q4 2025 earnings report — but its scale and backlog create visible, durable revenue streams. Management has also signaled confidence through a dividend increase and new share buybacks. 
The 50-day moving average has been a reliable support level during GEV’s roughly 200% advance over the past 12 months, and the stock is once again bouncing from that area. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has also provided actionable signals during this run, historically indicating buying opportunities when it dips to about 50 — a level it recently approached. With management guiding to roughly $45 billion in revenue for 2026, fundamentals appear positioned to remain supportive of the technical momentum. |
