The EU has committed to cut CO2 emissions by 20% by 2020, improving energy efficiency by 20% and increasing its share of using renewable energy sources by 20%. This panel will debate how the various renewable energy technologies can meet the climate challenge in the timeframe and also examine the consequences for energy policy and investments in the region.
Despite the uncertainty in the European financial sector, 2011 saw creative solutions for financing energy projects which support our actions against climate change. The industry has tapped new sources of debt and equity and added to the array of financial structures to keep capital flowing. This panel of leading finance professionals will examine the current state of play and the prospects for renewable energy and energy efficiency projects in the Balkans, South East Europe and the Mediterranean. The panelists will also look at how financial developments can drive growth over the next several years.
