Purchasing energy stocks entails investing in a company that manufactures or sells energy sources.

The energy stocks category includes companies engaged in the following activities:

The primary focus of oil and gas corporations, which typically locate, produce, transport, store, refine, and export energy globally, is on fossil fuels.
As such, this can include the discovery, production, transportation, and refining of crude oil and/or liquefied natural gas.
Utility companies, on the other hand, generate and distribute electricity and natural gas to customers.
Some companies manufacture the components required to generate electricity from renewable sources such as solar, wind, hydroelectricity, and geothermal energy.
They also include companies that manage and create renewable energy sources.
Solar panel and component manufacturing is at the heart of a subset of renewable energy that generates electricity from the sun.
Others are hydropower, wind turbine manufacturers, and bioenergy, which is derived from organic material.
