- 17. Commercial Breakeven
• For renewable technology to be commercially adopted at
scale, it must be commercially viable—breakeven or
better against competitive, less environmentally friendly
options. Four factors will drive commercial breakeven:
– Traditional and innovation-based incentives (i.e., tax credits)
– Increases in fossil fuel prices
– Introduction of carbon prices (cap and trade or carbon tax)
– Cost declines from movement down the learning curve
– Increased supply capacity (economies of scale)

• The Production Tax Credit (PTC)
– reduces renewable energy producers tax burden by 1.5 to 2 cents
per Kwh;
– Extended for one year for large-scale wind projects;
• The investment Tax Credit (ITC)
– reduces capital expenses for solar electric and solar water heating
equipment by 30%;
– extended for eight years for solar projects;
• 1.5 billion in tax credits, along with incentives for carbon
capture, for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects.

- 27. What Next? The Financial Crisis and Green
Investment
• Given stretched valuations late last year, the public-equity green tech
universe has given back about 40% of its out-performance built up in
2006-2007.
• Clean tech private markets have maintained growth into 4Q, but are
now being affected by the credit-squeeze- equity financing will require
more attractive valuations in the absence of debt financing.
• As financial markets stabilize, many climate-related and green tech
sectors should recover early in both public and private markets, as they
have regulatory support and strong long-term growth prospects.
• In “green” oriented infrastructure, there are several Gov’t economic
stimulus options that would have immediate impact on job creation.

- 30. Take Away Messages
• Growth in global energy demand coupled with awareness of Climate
Change, will require that innovative low carbon energy technologies be
brought on line if GHG emissions are to be reduced at the same time.
• Opportunities for energy efficiency improvement exist at every turn –
there is plenty of room for cost-effective efficiency improvement with
technologies we have today
• The challenges go well beyond technical issues! We need behavioral
changes, better economic policies to level the playing field for “green”
energy, and coordinated local, national and international effort.
• The global financial crisis will likely have short term effects, but mid and
long term investment in ‘green’ infrastructure/technology could lead to
significant job growth and robust market opportunities.
