Bit of a misleading graph. Approximately 41% of NextEra Energy's generating capacity was still from fossil fuels and non-renewables.

Market cap is not a good measure , adani green is a huge bubble propped by speculation and market manipulation

Total installed capacity would be cool

Why is it measured in marker cap, not renewable energy generated per year?

I'm pretty sure "EDP renovaveis" is Portuguese, not Spanish

Adani and Brookfield continue to expand both fossil fuels and renewables in their portfolios. I am sure many of these other companies are doing the same
They aren't "good guys"

Why is this missing Enel Green Power with a Market Cap of 9.45 Bio?

Whatever good is done by Adani Green is dwarfed by emission of other arms of the corporation - coal mining and power generation

It always makes me annoyed that nuclear power is green as fuck but not renewable, so it gets cut out.

1/ Market cap has nothing to do with how large a company is, especially in a fledging sector like this one

2/ To focus on market cap means that any private company will get cut out of the ranking

So the metric used is absolutely not relevant and dull

I have to agree. Installed Capacity or Generated Green Electricity would be better measures. Do companies with Biomass, Energy from Waste and other green electricity production count in these companies portfolios, or are they as a lot of green energy just solar and wind?
