Summit 2009 Results

New Energy Finance is proud to present highlights and interviews with 18 of our thought leaders and participants at the recent New Energy Finance Summit, held in London in March 2009.

These interviews provide a very broad selection of perspectives on the current state of the clean energy markets, ranging from policy issues (Nobuo Tanaka, Executive Director, IEA or Jos Delbeke, Deputy Director-General for the Environment, European Commission) to industry (Shai Agassi, Founder and CEO, Better Place or Ricardo Castello Branco, Chief Industrial Officer, Petrobras Biocombustivel) to finance (Paul Deninger, Vice Chairman, Jefferies or Dr. Paul Kloppenborg, CEO, Global Cleantech Capital), to research and NGO's (Henrik Bindslev, Director, Risoe, TUD or Dr. Doug Parr, Chief Scientist, Greenpeace UK).
