Crude oil prices have been surging recently, and there is little sign that the momentum will be slowing down. Every time crude oil reaches these types of elevated levels, it seems that interest in alternative forms of energy also rise. Solar is one type of alternative energy that gets particular attention, and should be on investors' radar going into 2012.
First Solar (FSLR -15%) goes into freefall following news it has halted deliveries for the $1.8B Agua Caliente Arizona solar plant due to construction being ahead of schedule. Agua Caliente, a 51/49 JV between NRG Energy (NRG) and Berkshire Hathaway's MidAmerican Energy, is already 85% built, even though the project isn't scheduled for completion until the end of 2013. The halt may be stoking fears First Solar's recent growth was padded by aggressive deliveries
