The Green Energy Finance deep dive workshop was attended by more than 50 participants. There were three main conclusions of the session. One, bankable wind resource assessment is key to project financing of wind project. Second, project financiers closely examine the uncertainty of energy production and the associated financial risk. Third, tariffs for wind energy are on a downward slide around the world, and several countries in Asia are considering reverse auction for wind projec
The IoT and smart grid deep dive workshop was attended by more than 50 participants. There were two main conclusions of the session. One, IoT promises to have a big impact in the power sector because it has the potential to significantly reduce cost, increase efficiency and increase customer service in the face of large penetration of distributed generation and customer focus on reducing energy use. Second, successful deployment of IoT cannot be technology centric, it needs to be ho
