Creating the Climate
for Change
Sustainable Energy
Finance Roundtable,
27th October 2005, New York City
|
In the midst of rising oil prices,
new markets for carbon emissions trading, and billion dollar plans
to rebuild New Orleans after Katrina, the 2nd SEFI Roundtable will
take place in New York City on October 27, 2005.
|
1 Day only - Network with the Experts
|
The Roundtable will help financiers understand how and where new
investment patterns are evolving in an energy sector that will
require $500 billion of new capital a year for the coming decades.
How these funds are invested will determine the sustainability of
the global energy mix for the next century. The financial sector is
a key player in developing market solutions to the challenge of
building a sustainable energy future.
Significant milestones this year make 2005 a crossroads in the
shift to a sustainable energy path. The Kyoto start-up and post-2012
negotiations, a G8 Action Plan on climate change, and a new US
energy bill are all poised to help the clean energy market become a
mature global industry. Roundtable participants will learn how they
can help drive and benefit from this shift. |
