Document summary

Market expansion in the growing and increasingly competitive global clean energy sector is analysed, as the industry faces geopolitical, economic and policy challenges, particularly relating to public sector support of renewable energy and nuclear power generation. Regulations and policy appear in a state of flux, as some countries cut the subsidies applicable to existing operational renewable energy projects this demonstrates that regulatory risk is assuming greater importance. Investor interest is expected to remain high if incentives remain for global clean energy development, governments though may not be able to sustain these incentives.
