Investments Increase in Clean Energy
04.18.08
The global credit crunch has hit investments in clean energy, but with rising energy prices and concern about climate change and supportive policies, sizable funds have still found their way into the sector during the first quarter of 2008, according to New Energy Finance.
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.
