Core European Renewable Energy Markets like the UK, Ireland, France and Germany continued to show strong investment activity in 2014. New markets are emerging in the North and South of Europe and new technologies like larger turbines and offshore wind farms have established themselves in the sector and are now part of the renewables options. This has combined with changes and reductions in subsidies / support systems across Europe.
This event will look at the European Renewable Energy in the context of the wider energy market and the global industry. It will look at the influencing factors and what project finance solutions are developing to meet these challenges. It will focus on what issues future leaders need to be aware of and what the future may hold.
