Financing New Energy Assets in the Post-Credit Crunch Environment
The global financial credit crunch has made it harder to invest in new energy assets on a global scale. Understanding post-crunch investment dynamics in the energy sector is crucial if private and state utilities are to secure the necessary project finance to invest in new energy assets to cope with recovering demand in the developed world, and continuing growth in the developing world.
Scope:
*Risk profiles for investing in different new energy assets
*An analysis of the impact of the global credit crunch on investment in new energy assets
*Projections of investment in different energy assets in different countries to 2030, as well as costs, implications and strategic investment factors
*Case studies of investment in new renewable power generation and new gas storage assets
Highlights:
The global credit crunch has made it harder for state and private utilities to access investment finance, however investment will still primarily be driven by market fundamentals, and future revenue vs costs, regulatory and policy risks, subsidies and market structure need to be assessed before any investment can proceed.
Investment is projected to grow significantly to 2030, facilitated by the need to keep up with growing energy demand. The US, EU, China and India are projected to have the largest increases in investment in new energy assets.
Investment in low-carbon generation i.e. renewables, nuclear, CCS, etc. will form the biggest component of investment in new energy assets to 2030. These low-carbon investments will be primarily skewed towards the EU and US where the shift to decarbonising the economy is more pronounced.
Reasons to Purchase:
*Decide which types of investment are riskier than others, as well as understanding which investor is best suited to undertake that new investment
*Uncover where investment hot-spots in new energy assets are likely to occur, as well as the type and magnitude of different investments globally
*Understand how the different investment factors interact prior to any investor commencing investment in any new energy asset globally.
