Summary. In Ep11 we had the pleasure of chatting with a deeply experienced financier about the financing of clean energy projects around the world, Robert Todd from CIBC Capital Markets, a leading North American financial institutional with a global footprint. He first touches on the key trends that he is experiencing in his day-to-day work and then digs in deeper into some of these areas, including the growing role of partnerships and also the shift for single assets investments to a more systematic approach. He also discusses the changing role of private capital in the decarbonisation as well as some of the approaches from the development banks. He also addresses some of the challenges currently potentially impacting clean energy financing.
