ACORE and New Energy Finance to Launch Bi-weekly Briefing

The American Council On Renewable Energy (ACORE) and New Energy Finance Limited today announced plans for a publication devoted to tracking investment activity in the US clean energy sector. According to New Energy Finance’s research, worldwide investment in renewables and clean-tech totaled $42 billion in 2005. With BP, GE, GM, Goldman Sachs, President Bush and others actively touting their support for the sector, interest has never been higher.

“Demand and investment in clean energy are quickly ramping up in North America, so the time is right for a publication devoted entirely to new energy finance issues in the region,” said New Energy Finance Founder and CEO Michael Liebreich. “We are pleased to partner with ACORE, the preeminent advocate for green energy in the US, on this important new venture.” The ACORE New Energy Finance Briefing USA will report on issues ranging from seed and start-up investment, to IPOs, M&A activity and project finance. The twice-monthly newsletter will follow the rapid growth of North American wind power, solar energy, and biofuel production and track developments in geothermal, biomass, fuel cell, marine, and small-scale hydropower projects and companies. It will also cover investment activity in power storage, smart power distribution and energy savings, as well as the important emerging area of carbon capture and sequestration.
