The selected instruments are as follow:

Wind Power Derivative for Large Scale Wind Farm Projects in Mexico, study conducted by Marsh Finances and Paris Re

Renewable Energy Insurance Facility for Wind Farm Projects in the People's Republic of China (PRC), study conducted by Marsh UK and Lloyd's Ascot Renewco

Insurance Solutions for Small Scale Biomass Power projects in India, by Crestar Capital, National Insurance Company and IFFCO/Tokyo General Insurance Co. LTD

Each feasibility study will examine the market prospects in terms of regulatory environment, investment climate, data reliability, availability of local financing and potential demand for the product.
