WINDPOWER Conference & Exhibition 2019

Trends in Wind M&A, Cost of Capital, and How Investors in US Projects Approach Risk (Room Fast Track)

22 May 19
2:45 PM - 3:10 PM

Tracks: Finance and Investment

The cost of capital for American wind power projects, including offshore, continues to decline as investors revise their attitudes toward risk in this sector. This has resulted in new interest in wind assets from oil and gas majors, traditional lenders, and major institutional investors. More American investors continue to emerge along with the European investors who have traditionally bankrolled the U.S. industry. These trends have also galvanized wind M&A in the US, with major deals both on land and offshore. Greentech Capital Advisors executes merger, divestiture and acquisition transactions, raises capital through private placements, and provides strategic advisory services for Sustainable Infrastructure companies and projects. The firm also manages funds that offer institutional investors global exposure to companies profiting from sustainability. Greentech Capital Advisors has played an important advisory role in major recent wind M&A deals.
