Main meeting: $895 Workshop: $395

With a stroke of a pen President Obama signed the American Recovery and Investment Act of 2009 and ushered in a new era in renewable energy finance. Coming on top of the fallout from the financial crisis, the stimulus bill creates a dynamic environment of both opportunity and uncertainty for renewable financing: Opportunity to utilize new financial incentives and innovative structures to jump start a resurgence of renewable project development, yet uncertainty about how best to take advantage of these opportunities.

The Post-Stimulus Renewable Finance Summit will be the first major event to bring together renewable developers, investors, lenders and other renewable finance players to focus on the opportunities in renewable financing created by the stimulus bill and how to seize them. The Summit will provide an important opportunity for these groups to get the latest market intelligence on how investors and lenders are responding to the stimulus bill, how the government is administering its provisions, how best to structure deals to utilize its new incentives, and more.

The Summit will also provide an excellent chance for renewable developers and the financial community to reengage in the wake of the unprecedented burst of federal governmental support for renewables and explore anew the opportunities for deal-making opportunities.
