Even during these tough times it is easy to see that solar is set to win big long-term as the strongest renewable energy contender. Despite the current economic climate new and exciting projects are coming to life across Europe in 2009-10andbeyond:
FACT: SpanishIPPAccionaEnergíaclosedoutlastyearwiththeinstallationofitsUS$367million,46MWAmarelejaplantinPortugal
FACT: WorldwidedemandforPVsolarsystemsgrewfrom125megawatts(MW)in1999to 4,500MWin2008
FACT: SolarMillennium’shugeAndasol1projectwasofficiallyinauguratedinJuly2009
FACT:AbengoaisontracktocommissionthemassivePS20plantinmid2010
These projects are getting started at a time when developers and investors are said to have shut shop, but the facts prove this is simply not true. The solar industry is still going strong with new projects being planned and incentives put in place to meet major government clean energy targets across Europe and beyond.
“Greentech Media states that the investment for CSP & CPV alone could reach $200 billion through 2020, totalling up to 29GW of installations.”
Asakeymemberofthesolarindustryyouhavean edge over other renewable technologies, but you don’t need us to tell you that securing investment still isn’t easy. That’s exactly why we have created the 2nd European Solar Investment and Finance Summit to provide you with all the secret strategies, insider tricks and top tips you need to secure your project’s future.
