Renewable energy is the energy obtained from a source that is not depleted when used. It includes natural energy sources such as wind or solar power which can be harnessed to the maximum available extent without there being a risk of any kind of depletion. Other such sources include geothermal heat, ocean tides, water, and various forms of biomass. There are companies which are in the business of sourcing power from such renewable energy sources, or generating revenues from supporting functions like storage of such energy or transmitting the generated power. The exchange traded funds which invest in stocks of such companies are called Renewable Energy ETFs. This article provides the list of ETFs which belong to the Renewable Energy category and are available for trading in the U.S. capital markets. Following is the list of all 10 exchange-traded funds that FKnol has in its database for ETFs which belong to the Renewable Energy category:

Such renewable energy ETFs may also qualify to be called clean energy ETFs or Alternative energy ETFs. They may track and attempt to replicate the performance of common stock market indexes which represent the renewable energy specialized sector. Such indexes include Nasdaq Clean Edge Green Energy Index and the S&P Global Clean Energy Index. Since a lot of variety exists in such companies and the nature of their business, one should carefully look at the constituent companies in which the ETFs are investing.
