Investment bounces back strongly in Europe03/07/2009 - New investment in clean energy worldwide rallied in the second quarter of 2009, reaching $24.3bn, according to figures published today by New Energy Finance. The data, based on actual deal and project transactions, show that Q2 was a big improvement on the first quarter of 2009, when investment was just $13.3bn, but it was nevertheless well down on the same quarter of last year, when the figure was $36.2bn. Behind the improvement compared to Q1 were two main changes – a jump in asset finance of projects such as wind farms and solar parks, and a sudden resumption of equity issuance on public market by quoted clean energy firms.

IMarEST Metocean Awareness Course 03/07/2009 - Meteorology and oceanography (metocean) have a major impact on design and operations in all elements of the offshore industry. From a business perspective, it is imperative that users of metocean information in the offshore oil and gas and marine renewables industries are fully aware of the implications that the weather, waves, currents and water levels can have on their operations or design work. Experience has shown that if they are not, things can go wrong, with serious health and safety and economic consequences. Following the success of the first Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST) three-day Metocean Awareness Course, held earlier this year, the second in the series is to be held Tuesday 15-Thursday 17 September at IMarEST headquarters at 80 Coleman Street, London EC2R 5BJ in the heart of the City of London.
