The Guardian recommends renewable energy and community finance schemes for steady long-term returns: Patrick Collinson’s top 7 places to invest (Guardian, Tuesday 26th).
“Sounds nice and green but too woolly and not likely to make much of a profit? Not at all – many renewable energy schemes are products designed by financiers to give steady long-term returns that, with a good wind, can give you 6% a year. Try platforms such as Abundance and Ethex to find schemes, with all the usual warnings that these are relatively high-risk.”
