Investments Increase in Clean Energy
04.18.08

In the first quarter of 2007, investments totaled $3.7 billion, whereas $2.4 billion has been recorded for the first quarter of 2008. There was a sharp divide between private equity, which was sharply down, and venture capital, where investment was up on a year ago.
