About the event
Following a hugely successful inaugural conference in 2010, Funding Renewables returns on 16th June 2011.
The Energy & Utility Forum's Funding Renewables Conference provides a platform to meet with and hear from key stakeholders in the sector and addresses how best to take forward projects and how best to find the developers to deliver the right returns.
Financiers, development companies, policy shapers and energy companies will provide insight and useful contacts through a conference that aims to bring together both sides to renewable energy projects and the policy makers who role is at least as important as the parties to any deal.
WHAT WILL BE DISCUSSED?
• Funding sources, types, costs and requirements
• Bankability and risk assessment
• The funding environment
• The framework for developing renewables projects
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Venture capitalists/investors/financial institutions/entrepreneurs will
• network with the companies developing technology and services to support future energy solutions
• identify investment opportunities and risks
• get face-to-face with the experts in this field and debate the commercial issues
Energy companies and professionals will
• network with suppliers, consumers, competitors and other key stakeholders within the changing energy industry
• seek out new business opportunities across a global platform
Governments/NGOs/environmental agencies will hear from funders and developers how the Government's proposed new energy policy impacts on its goals and targets and will have the opportunity to engage with that constituency in considering its approach to policy decisions
This event is organised in conjunction with the Energy and Utility Forum
The Energy and Utility Forum brings together policy makers and policy shapers in the energy and utilities sectors through invitation-only events. This enables senior industry figures to discuss issues of particular importance with key politicians and civil servants on an informal and open basis. Both sides of the debate and subsequent policy decisions are, as a result, better informed. Forum discussions are not a form of lobbying (for either side of the debate) and those attending events are sufficiently diverse to ensure there can be no single or parochial point of view.
