Financing Wind Power:

July 25 - 27, 2007
Eldorado Hotel and Spa

Conference Overview

There are tremendous opportunities presenting themselves in the wind energy field. Although less than 1 percent of the nation's electricity is currently supplied by wind power, experts have concluded that with today's technology there is theoretically enough wind power potential in the United States to supply all of the Nation's electricity, and sufficient wind for commercial power production can be found in at least 46 states. The Bush administration has also stated that wind energy can to supply all of the Nation's electricity of America's energy needs. Given America's focus on the environment and its quest for alternative energy sources, legislative and administrative proposals are pending that could make this a reality.

This three-day conference will focus on:

  • current debt and tax credit equity structures for wind financing, providing a solid understanding of how deals come together;
  • up-to-date information on pending legislation and current federal and state policies for techniques for minimizing permitting, zoning, environmental and other regulatory roadblocks
  • best practices for financing, warranties, debt and tax structuring, including addressing investor concerns
  • special issues and tactics for locally owned, locally beneficial community wind projects
  • methods for raising capital to fuel wind energy companies.
