Financing Wind Europe 2017
November 9, 2017

The Leadenhall Building, London
In 2017, we brought Financing Wind to the Leadenhall Building in London, for our sixth annual conference.
About this event
We brought together 150+ of the highest-level professionals from all sides of the industry: investors, owner operators and developers. As one attendee commented, “I don’t think I’ve ever seen quite the collection of people you manage to bring together!”
The day’s central themes were trends in onshore and offshore, and predictions for the future of technology, with a special focus on UK and European wind.
This event also featured the launch of the Top 100 Power People 2017, our definitive guide to who’s who in global wind.
Financing Wind attracted some of the industry’s most authoritative voices as speakers, including Bank of America Merrill Lynch’s Ray Wood and MUFG’s Carol Gould.
