Leading international experts shared their knowledge on high level strategic planning, technical advances and policy changes, offering practical advice to make the most of clean energy projects. The topic highlights included:
"The plan which Europe has to move progressively towards renewables power generation is challenging in a number of different dimensions and of these, relatively little attention has been given to financing. The CEFD conference with its well-balanced participants drawn from utilities, power developers and a range of financial institutions has made an important contribution to this debate and highlighted a number of issues, such as the limited availability of risk-bearing capital, which will determine both the rate at which the transition makes progress and its cost to consumers."
"CEFD provides a very comprehensive insight on market drivers that are changing the European energy sector landscape fundamentally - useful event for operators within every part of the energy value chain."
"I thought Clean Energy Finance & Development was an excellent event which tackled the topic really effectively, through a great line-up of knowledgeable speakers, and topical and well-run interactive sessions. Informa’s grasp of the key players and issues facing the sector made for a well targeted event that I found really useful. Many thanks."
