  • (1888PressRelease) January 11, 2011 - PALO ALTO, California - AltaTerra Research is pleased to announce the online briefing, "Roadmap to Bankability: A Discussion with Matt Cheney on Getting New Technology Financed & Deployed" to be held Thursday, February 3 at 11:00 am Pacific / 2:00 pm Eastern. Registration is open for the live online briefing, and for post-event access to the briefing on demand, at www.altaterra.net/event/bankability.

    For customers and vendors alike, the eligibility of lower-cost or innovative technologies to receive project financing, also known as bankability, is a crucial issue facing the renewable energy industry-and the solar industry in particular. Navigating the path to bankability is paramount to the commercialization of new and improved technologies. Without acceptance from financiers and access to capital, these technologies and modules will struggle to gain a place in today's competitive marketplace.

    In this online briefing, Matt Cheney, founder of Renewable Ventures and CEO of CleanPath Ventures, will discuss the challenges of project financing and commercialization for emerging and established renewable energy innovations. Mr. Cheney will offer practical solutions for how companies are solving the bankability problem, including an exploration of innovative finance mechanisms. In addition, he will focus on how bankability affects customers and investors in innovative technology solutions. The online briefing will also cover the broader issue of how bankability affects the commercialization of new, improved, and emerging technologies.

    "Matt Cheney is a solar luminary and financing expert, who was the first to finance many emerging solar technologies in America. As the founder and former CEO of Renewable Ventures, Matt has financed, owned, and operated more than $300 million in solar assets," said Jon Guice, managing director of research at AltaTerra Research and moderator of the online briefing. "We are excited to have Matt share his insights on how bankability is affecting the renewable and solar industries and discuss some potential solutions."

    AltaTerra analyst, Eric Paul, will provide a brief introduction to bankability. Jon Guice will moderate an extended period of Q&A where participants will be given the chance to engage Mr. Cheney's expertise and knowledge of the industry.
