EnergyNet’s Group Director commented: “We’ve held some fantastic meetings in the past with the best developers, investors and the most proactive governments, but this meeting is something else, the level of investor and the joined up thinking of multi-governments is extraordinary. From our conversations it’s clearly all about building the right partnerships so that when the deals are done they’re with proven and bankable partners using the best technology and investment tools – we’re very excited!”
