2 State of the Commercial Market Renewable Fuels/Energy have a higher initial cost then fossil fuels –Incentives / enabling legislation required initially US Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and grant in lieu Feed-In Tariffs used in Canada, Spain, Germany, Israel, India Pending Federal Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) –Renewable market dominated by Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) Limited System Engineering in the market –Need broad, long-term view and sustainability Project financing slow to start –Global capital market slow down has not helped –Banks have not taken many technology risks Bankable company required to wrap project –Long term PPA/FPA required for bank financing Incentives and Enabling Legislation Required for Renewable Energy Market Growth
