On Meridian Business Television this week, http://MeridianBusiness.tv, Randy Lennon interviews Keith Turner about the exciting field of alternative energy financing and green energy projects. Turner, who has experience in “waste to energy” project financing that dates back to the 1980’s, talks about the current enthusiasm around green energy projects as being “a bit like the second wave of the Internet”. http://www.youtube.com/
A lot of alternative or green energy projects back then, particularly in the United States, were sponsored by regulations that were passed during the Carter administration that would reduce dependence on foreign oil.
Today, with virtually everyone concerned about the environment, there is a tremendous amount Alternative Energy financing available in both the public and private sector to develop green energy projects, creating thousands of entrepreneurial opportunities.
Where there is opportunity, there is also risk as the importance of putting an experienced team together is discussed. Financiers and banks will of course evaluate the business case around the Green Energy projects, but they are primarily going to carefully examine the people involved, their experience in the field, and their capability to execute on the plan.
This is where an experienced investment banking team such as Meridian can help take a project over the goal line.
MBTV is owned by Dream Detective Media Properties Inc., a transmedia company also founded by Turner and Lennon.
