Brendan Coffey is a specialist on "green" investing; in his The Cabot Green Investor, he looks to alternative energy firm American Superconductor (NASDAQ: AMSC).

Here's his review of the company, which is a player both in wind power and energy efficient wiring that can play a role in improved power grid systems.

"Long an R&D company, focusing on highly conductive wiring, American Superconductor made a game-changing purchase of an Austrian wind company, Windtec, in early 2007.

These infrastructure stocks continue to be out of favor on an "institutional money rotation away from global growth stories", but in the big picture I continue to believe the story is very interesting. Below is a series of stories entailing some of the opportunities and challenges we've discussed many times in the blog.

First, as we always say - America; the land of not addressing a problem until it's an emergency. And we have an emergency brewing in our infrastructure. The positive is, addressing this emergency can create many good, solid jobs for Americans. (these will be tough to offs...

Five American Innovators to Buy During the Current Downturn Graphic_rating_buy AMSC

With the gloomy financial news coming out of Wall Street, it may be tempting to bail out of all US equities and invest in a Russian ETF. But that would be a bad decision. A bear market creates buying opportunities.

<>We invest to make money but your portfolio can also reflect your moral and nationalistic ideals. A country is a family. Everyone matters. Never quit. Never turn your back. I recommend buying innovative American companies with a significant customer base in emerging markets (line your pockets while reducing the trade imbalance). The current landscape is littered with good bargains...

I'm trying to build a 3 position basket of "alternative energy" <!---->(non-solar) names. I started this basket with a small stake in American Superconductor (AMSC) which I actually added a bit to here as it pulls back to $36 and fills a gap from June 9th. [Jun 12: Starting a Beachhead in American Superconductor (AMSC)]

“If You Add to The Truth, You Subtract From It”
- The Talmud

It is no secret that Citron Research is skeptical of American Superconductor (AMSC). The company has now crossed the line to ridiculous. They have taken a small customer in Sinovel and added so much nonsense that they have subtracted any corporate credibility that is still left from a company that has done nothing but burn through investors money. It is our opinion that anyone on Wall Street would have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to realize the complete lunacy of American Superconductor’s most recent press release.

(closed on 06/12/08)

This past week, Wall Street whooped up the higher top-line revenue number from American Superconductor (AMSC), and rewarded it with an immediate 25% gain, plumping its market cap to well over a billion dollars. All this for a company that has done nothing but over-promise and under-deliver for years.<!---->

<>Citron seeks to answer a key question: Was this increase inrevenue gained through legitimate arms-length transactions, or wasthere another explanation - some undisclosed related partytransactions? You be the judge. If we look to the insiders forguidance, they have already rendered the...
