Building on the success of the recently held Renewable Energy Finance Forum Wall Street, REFF West convenes it's fifth meeting in San Francisco on September 27-28.
Along with current renewable energy financing trends and advice on how to move projects forward, the agenda has been reconfigured to address the challenging business environment developers face today. New for this year, the conference will feature a session on the role of the U.S. military in the development of renewable energy. The army has set ambitious renewable energy targets that will greatly increase their energy security, but also save significant amounts of money.
Infrastructure financing is another new topic at this year's conference. Industry groups have estimated that replacing and upgrading decaying US energy infrastructure could require anywhere from $75 billion annually to as much as $4 trillion. The thought leaders, developers, financiers and regulators attending REFF West will be discussing this issue and much more.
