SolarPower Europe Makes Finance Workstream Announcement
Shaping the European Green Deal Finance Agenda
The European Green Deal Investment Plan will mobilise at least €1 trillion in sustainable investments over the next decade, with the aim of creating an enabling framework to facilitate public and private investments in the service of a climate-neutral, competitive, and inclusive European economy. Within this context, SolarPower Europe has launched a new Finance Workstream to help shape the Green Deal finance agenda and contribute to the development of favourable financing solutions for the European solar sector.
Anika Giller, Director of Business Development EMEA & APAC at Clean Energy Associates and Vice-Chair of the Finance workstream, commented: “I am honored to serve as the Vice-Chair of the Finance Workstream. Ensuring the quality and correct deployment of solar and energy storage projects is critical for achieving investment confidence and to take renewables to the next stage of a post-subsidy era. I am convinced that together, we will succeed on the search for ways to overcome financial obstacles for deploying more renewable energy projects to power the European Green Deal and to reach the EU clean energy targets.”
