Technology Radar - Renewable Energy

This webinar will describe possible applications that can be served by turbocompressor-driven industrial heat pumps, discuss specific design features, and provide pointers on potential refrigerants to be used. From process heat to space or district heating – these days, thermal heat makes up a significant portion of energy demand across Europe, with approximately two-thirds of that heat being produced using fossil fuels. As a result, industrial process heat is responsible for about 20% of carbon dioxide emissions across Europe

The market of on-site solar for C&I customers has started maturing in Sub-Saharan Africa in the last few years. What are the drivers, the business models and the barriers for faster market growth?

In this webinar, experts from Atlas Copco Gas and Process and Stiesdal provide insight into the high speed turbocompressors and turboexpanders that lie at the heart of Stiesdal's new form of cost-effective, large scale electricity storage.The Danish climate technology company Stiesdal, founded by wind pioneer Henrik Stiesdal, is currently developing a new form of cost-effective, large scale electricity storage, based on hot rocks and plain air as the storage medium.The storage technology is called GridScale and is being developed by Stiesdal subsidiary Stiesdal Storage

Finding the right financial structure for renewable energy development is complex. Viable alternatives to traditional power purchase agreements as the basis for financing renewable energy projects are emerging, enabling alternative financing options for project developers and sponsors. A variety of funding sources exist for municipalities, private developers and corporations interested in financing renewable energy projects. However, securing the necessary capital remains challenging. New financing products and deal structures are emerging and existing products are evolving to meet the significant growth in renewable energy development, putting even more pressure on the demand for capital. Counsel to sponsors, developers and investors must understand the markets and tools available to leverage financing trends to their advantage. Listen as our authoritative panel of energy attorneys examines the financing of renewable energy projects, reviews financial incentives that are available, sources of capital, and debt and equity structures, and offers best practices for financing renewable energy.
