Method
The 16 of 16 ETFs in the clean energy theme with a filed book, most concentrated first. Across the funds listed here the weight in the ten largest runs from 21.3% to 73.1%. Concentration is not a fault. It is how much of the fund rides on ten decisions. The ranking is the published field sorted, nothing else: no scoring, no weighting and no view on any fund. Every fund ETFIQ covers in this category is eligible, including funds that have closed, because leaving them out would flatter the category.
