    Venue: Spreespeicher Stralauer Allee 2a 10245 Berlin

    Financing wind power in emerging markets smart policies and beyond


    In 2010, emerging markets overtook OECD economies in terms of financial new investments in renewables. Time to settle back because renewable energy projects in emerging markets are well on a winning track? Not quite yet. Obstacles remain especially in terms of wind project finance. To discuss challenges and opportunities as well as ways to direct more investment to emerging economies, BWE, GIZ and VDMA invite partner country representatives of German development cooperation, the German wind industry, the finance sector and implementing agencies to the Wind Energy and Development Dialogue 2012. From 08:30 Registration Opening and welcome 08:45 Opening and Moderation Mike Enskat, Deutsche Gesellschaft fr Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH
