Renewable Energy Funding Heats Up: What it Means for Businesses

The renewable energy sector continues to attract serious investment, with news breaking this week that a new group, founded by the former Chief Executive of oilfield services giant Petrofac, is set to announce a substantial £40 million fundraising. For those following the headlines, Petrofac will be remembered as the oilfield services group that sadly collapsed last autumn. While the founder's new venture operates in a very different field, it's certainly drawing attention. Intriguingly, this fundraising comes amidst reports of internal tensions regarding the group's leadership. This element adds a layer of complexity to what would otherwise be a straightforward good news story for the green energy market.
