Offshore wind farms can be placed where power is needed most, the coast, thus their efficiency levels will be substantially higher than their onshore counterparts.

Financial Restructuring
21 September 2010, London Stock Exchange, London, EC4
The Banker presents ‘Financial Restructuring’, a full day conference providing delegates with the best possible insight into navigating vital relationships with financial partners in tough times.
The severe dislocation of the post-Lehman period may be over, but refinancing conditions for indebted companies are far from rosy. The overhang of sovereign debt is clouding credit market conditions and brings with it the process of fiscal tightening and a prolonged period of slow economic growth.
As a result, restructurings still appear to be on the cards for those companies with weak balance sheets or operating in vulnerable sectors. Many lenders are still deleveraging and remain aggressive in their treatment of equity holders during debt negotiations.
With restructurings unlikely to get any simpler, or any less frequent in the short term, this event will address the latest issues and ideas in the global restructuring market.
Complimentary places, only available to institutional investors, are strictly limited so please register now to guarantee your attendance.
