Jim,

Have you looked at Atlantic Power Corporation {AT}?

It owns interest in various power projects and a transmission line in the United States. It consists of 13 operational power generation projects with approximately 878 MW generation capacity; a 500 kilovolt 84-mile electric transmission line in California; a biomass project under construction in Georgia; and various development stage generating projects. The company also sells steam under sales agreements to industrial purchasers.

I got this one from Carla P. also, and what I think she liked most was their stated objective to maintain a stable dividend to shareholders and to maximize the value of the company. They have a history of acquiring quality assets while being able to maintain their financial stability.

The company has quite a diverse mix of energy generating assets from natural gas, coal, wind, biomass, and hydro. As a result of the recent sell-off, yield is 8.4%, and is distributed on a monthly basis, which makes this stock that much more appealing to me since I can better capture the market volatility which seems to be destiny for some time to come.
