Seattle: Michael Butler, chief executive of boutique clean- energy investment bank Cascadia Capital, says the recent $143m equity deal for Canadian waste-to-energy group Plasco exemplifies positive trends in financing for renewable energies.. Investors are becoming comfortable with waste-to-energy technology specifically and, relative to a year ago, more broadly with risk in the clean-energy sector.
In addition, with billions of dollars on hand, investment funds are under pressure to put that capital to work.
