BWE Announces Wind Energy and Development Dialogue in Berlin, Germany

‘Financing wind power in emerging markets – Smart policies and beyond’ is the topic of the 7th Wind Energy and Development Dialogue on Wednesday 26 September 2012 in Berlin.

In 2010, emerging markets overtook OECD economies in terms of financial new investments in renewables. Obstacles remain especially in terms of wind project finance.

The 7th Wind Energy and Development Dialogue builds on the success of the previous conferences. The objective of the cooperation is to encourage private sector engagement for sustainable wind energy development in emerging markets.

German Wind Energy Association (BWE), German Engineering Federation (VDMA) and Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) bring together guests from partner countries of German development cooperation, the German wind industry and implementing agencies.

The aim of the Wind Energy and Development Dialogue 2012 is to discuss challenges and opportunities as well as ways to direct more investment to emerging economies.
