Offshore Wind Financing Structures (Learning from the Experts)

October 25, 2023. In this webinar, Lesley Hunter with the American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) and Christopher Gladbach with McDermott Will & Emery (MWE) discuss different financing structures that support offshore wind development, including how projects are financed and the financial institutions that back these projects. As a Senior Vice President for Programs and Sustainable Finance, Lesley leads ACORE’s Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Working Group to improve the reflection of renewable energy use and investment in sustainability disclosures and reporting, and ACORE’s Project Finance Working Group to maximize opportunities for sector investments. Chris, a partner at MWE, counsels clients in energy M&A, project development, tax equity and project finance transactions.
