Global investment in clean energy reached a record $260 billion in 2011,, a 5 percent increase over 2010, Bloomberg New Energy Finance said Jan. 12.The 2011 increase was "particularly striking" because it came "during a turbulent year for the world economy in general and for the clean energy sector in particular," the London-based company said in a statement."The industry has suffered severe pressure on the profit margins of manufacturers, a sharp fall in share prices, some notable bankruptcies, cuts in European government subsidy support, and a reduction in the availability of bank finance," the company said.
