In the broader markets Energy Equipment & Services remained the strongest performing sector as crude oil edged towards US$100 per b.b.l. The MSCI World Small Cap rallied over the month, rising 2.8% and contributing to the Company's improved performance in comparison to September. During the month, a US House of Representatives committee signed-off on two bills allocating $1.5 billion for investment in energy storage and energy efficiency research, while the full House passed a resolution setting a goal to expand renewable energy production in the US to 25% by 2025. Elsewhere, the New Zealand government published proposals to raise renewable generation to 90% of the overall electricity mix by 2030. In France, President Sarkozy promised a 'green revolution', committing ¤1bn in funding for clean energy over the next four years, with a view to reaching 20% renewables by 2020. In the water treatment and pollution control sector, the EU Integrated Pollution Prevention Control Directive entered into full force at the end of the month. The Directive aims to reduce emissions to air, water and land from industrial installations - including metals, minerals, chemicals, paper, textiles, farming, oil refineries, and waste management. It is estimated that thousands of installations have yet to comply with legislation, underscoring the large investment requirement and business opportunity for monitoring and treatment technologies within the EU. In the waste sector, the UK saw two new rules come into force at the end of the month in line with EU landfill requirements. Liquid wastes have been banned from landfill, and solid, non-hazardous wastes now have to be treated before disposal. Plans to give councils powers to introduce financial incentives for recycling were also confirmed. October was another good month for alternative energy and energy efficiency stocks. Wind companies continued to perform on strong outlook for volume growth, with Gamesa rising more than 20%. LED companies also performed well, with Aixtron (Germany) gaining 18% on the back of strong results, significant new orders and acquisition activity. On the downside, the continued negative outlook for the US housing and construction sector affected stocks with exposure to water infrastructure such as Mueller Water (water treatment, US).
