Chapters describe project financing vehicles for a range of renewable energy technologies including solar photovoltaic power plants, offshore wind farms, and bio-fuel refineries, as well as financing practices in a diverse set of countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, India, and China. The book gives readers a unique insiders' perspective on how renewable energy deals actually get done, and is a go-to reference manual for understanding how to fund investment projects in renewable energy.Drawing together contributions from senior executives and academic thought-leaders, Renewable Energy Finance will serve an audience of readers craving a practitioner's perspective that avoids industry cliches, self-promotion, and grandstanding.
