Keynote Session - Clean Stimulus & Beyond During the recent financial crisis, G20 countries committed $184bn in stimulus funding to the clean energy sector. Yet by the end of 2009 only 9% of it had been spent. What was the logic behind the stimulus programmes? Are they scaleable and efficient? |

Studio Discussion - State of the Capital Markets What is the current state of investment activity from the front line? Are the stimulus funds driving or distorting investment?

Can they ever be withdrawn without bringing investment crashing to a halt? What about the public markets - is the window to raise money a short-lived one? |
