The 2nd Consultation
Meeting
Selected members
of the stakeholder group were invited to the second consultation meeting
held in Paris on 6 December 2006.
During the
meeting, the results of three sector studies commissioned following
the first consultation meeting, which took place in February 2006,
were reviewed. These studies are:
- Assessment
of financial risk management instruments for large scale renewable
energy projects, by Working Group 1
- Assessment
of financial risk management instruments for small scale renewable
energy projects, by Working Group 2
- Assessment
of financial risk management instruments for geothermal energy
development projects, by Working Group 3
The most promising
new instruments were selected to be developed through public-private
approaches and TORs for pre-feasibility work that can be initiated
in early 2007 were defined. The meeting also aimed to serve as a
forum for knowledge exchange among various risk management specialists
and renewable energy industry representatives both from the public
and private sectors in OECD and GEF eligible countries. This inclusive
approach should facilitate the process of development of new risk
management instruments/ structures for renewable energy projects
in developing countries.
