Description
Climate change requires critical actions in order to transform the world's energy systems, e.g. transitioning to clean energy sources (wind parks, solar panels etc.). Around the world, complex legal questions arise when it comes to financing this transition. The panel will navigate through issues such as how hybrid projects minimise risks, how to early secure land, how to establish pricing models, monitor risk constellations, and the role of IFIs, the EIB and similar bodies, etc.
