SUMMARY:Insuring Energy Transformation: Overcoming the "Squid Games" Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Unlocking the capital investment needed to deploy clean energy technologies at scale and at pace requires identifying\, allocating\, and managing risk extremely adeptly. Experts from leading insurers\, reinsurers\, and managing general agents (MGAs) who specialize in managing risk come together on this panel to discuss innovative and collaborative approaches to derisking\, accelerating\, and reducing the overall cost of the energy transition. \nJoin this session to explore: \n\nHow are insurers partnering with developers of newer technologies to design solutions that meet the unique needs of the technology?\nWhat could insurers do to address common financing challenges inherent in newer technologies (e.g.\, lack of long-term performance/operating data) with what help from others in the capital stack?\nHow could insurance play a role in addressing the ‘Squid Games’ challenge we observe in financing newer technologies where no one wants to go first or second\, but everyone is eager to go eighth or ninth?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nDr. Vanessa Chan\nChief Commercialization Officer\, Director of the Office of Technology Transitions\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nRoman Beilhack\nHead of New & Green Technologies\, Munich Reinsurance \n\n\n \nTom Dickson\nCEO\, New Energy Risk \n\n\n\n\n \nPriscilla Pazmino-Vitela\nHead of Natural Resources – Americas\, Allianz Commercial

SUMMARY:Privately Financing Big Infrastructure: Lessons Learned and What’s Next
DESCRIPTION:As decarbonization projects scale up\, infrastructure debt has become an essential piece of the financing puzzle. This session will bring together leading private credit lenders in decarbonization to discuss the challenges and opportunities they face when structuring deals to fund the energy transition. With a focus on how private lenders evaluate risk and structure investments compared to the Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office (LPO)\, this panel will offer a deep dive into the financing landscape for decarbonization infrastructure. \nJoin this conversation on private finance for big infrastructure to explore: \n\nHow are private credit lenders assessing and mitigating risks in decarbonization projects?\nHow does the risk appetite and deal structuring of private credit markets compare to the Loan Programs Office?\nWhat are the opportunities for collaboration between private and public financing to accelerate the deployment of clean energy infrastructure?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nSuresh Vasan\nSenior Investment Advisor\, Loan Program Office\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nSidd Bhat\nExecutive Director\, Debt Investments\, IFM Investors \n\n\n \nRhys Marsh\nPortfolio Manager\, Lombard Odier Investment Managers

SUMMARY:The Evolving Role of Growth Equity in the Climate Capital Stack
DESCRIPTION:Investing in decarbonization presents both significant opportunities and complex challenges as the transition to a low-carbon economy gains momentum. Leading equity investors are playing a crucial role in funding the infrastructure required to drive this transition. This session will bring together top investors in decarbonization to share their insights on navigating the evolving landscape of growth equity. They will discuss the risks and rewards associated with investing in infrastructure projects that support clean energy\, carbon capture\, and other emerging decarbonization technologies. \nJoin these investors to explore: \n\nHow are equity investors overcoming financial and regulatory hurdles in large-scale infrastructure projects?\nWhat are the sectors and technologies best positioned for growth in the decarbonization space?\nWhat are lessons learned from successful investments in climate infrastructure\, and what’s the outlook for future opportunities?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nMichele Martin\nSenior Investment Advisor\, Loan Program Office\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nChris Creed\nChief Investment Officer\, Loan Programs Office\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nJonathan Garfinkel\nPartner\, TPG \n\n\n\n\n \nStephan Feilhauer\nPartner\, Antin Infrastructure Partners

SUMMARY:The Future of Carbon Removal Markets
DESCRIPTION:This is a decisive decade for the carbon removal market\, with sales needing to grow orders of magnitude by 2030 to remain on track to meet carbon dioxide removal (CDR) deployment needs. In order to achieve net-zero emissions by mid-century\, we need to bring a diverse portfolio of removal technologies to gigaton-scale. The carbon market and carbon credit purchasing ecosystem is large and complex\, and this circuit session will convene top CDR market experts\, buyers and suppliers to explore: \n\nHow can carbon removal markets be structured to create catalytic growth?\nHow can buyers be incentivized to make transformative investments?\nWhat is the role of government and policy in carbon markets?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nDr. Jane Flegal\nMarket Development and Policy Lead\, Stripe Climate and Frontier \n\n\n \nDr. Colin McCormick\nChief Innovation Officer\, Carbon Direct \n\n\n \nRyan Edwards\nDirector of Climate Policy\, Oxy \n\n\n\n\n \nNoah Deich\nSenior Advisor for Carbon Management\, Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management\, U.S. Department of Energy

SUMMARY:Capital Stacks for Scale: Financing Demonstration and Early Deployment Projects
DESCRIPTION:There is no one way to scale technologies especially in more emerging markets\, in part because many things need to happen for a deal to come together. For the financing alone\, there are multiple approaches to securing capital commitments – preferred stock offerings\, tax equity financing\, offtake investors\, fully wrapped EPC contracts\, to name a few.   \nJoin this session with DOE and leading investors to explore:  \n\nHow are investors charting the path to financing demonstration-scale projects?\nWhat are investors various strategies for success — what’s working and what’s not?\n\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n \nLeslie Biddle\nDeputy Under Secretary for Commercialization and Finance\, Office of Infrastructure\, U.S. Department of Energy \n\n\n \nBriana Kobor\nHead of Energy Market Innovation\, Google \n\n\n \nCharlie Gailliot\nPartner & Global Co-Head\, KKR Climate \n\n\n\n\n \nRob Day\nCo-Founder\, Spring Lane Capital
