European Solar’s Response to the Changing Cost and Availability of Capital
Time: 17:00 - 17:45
Date: Day One of 2024 Solar Finance and Investment Europe Summit
Theatre: Stream One
Synopsis
The message from climate scientist is clear – we need to deliver the energy transition faster, but capital markets are indicating we need to pause, slow down and accept a temporary recession as rates rise to control inflation.
The fundamentals of the energy transition are sound, but market conditions remain a challenge as stakeholders report indicators of cooling capital and available capital raising in cost.
How do the best European developers and IPPs respond to this when they have capital intensive businesses? What is the outlook from investors? What are investors looking for in their long-term development partners?
