Financing Solar Energy

June 17 & 18, 2010
The Four Seasons Hotel, Silicon Valley at East Palo Alto
Palo Alto, CA

Conference Overview

It is predicted that by 2025, 10% of US electricity will come from solar energy. Today, that percentage is less than 1%, but the use of solar energy is on the rise, increasing at a rate of 40% annually over the past several years. The tremendous opportunities to participate in the growth of the solar energy field—and the fact that energy has been and will continue to be a focus of the current Congress—make being a part of the solar energy movement not only exciting but also one of the safer investments available in today’s business environment.

This two-day conference will focus on:

• The Basics: An overview of the technologies and how they can be used in commercial and residential facilities;
• Up-to-date information on pending legislation and current federal and state policies for solar energy;
• How to finance your project, including an overview of the various sources of available money;
• Components of a deal structure: Who the players are, what their roles are, and how they interact;
• Tax Credit Equity Rules: The basics for structuring tax credit transactions;
• Case Studies on various successful solar projects around the country; and
• Debt and equity updates.
