Marathon Capital Participates in West Coast Renewable Energy Finance Forum

CHICAGO, July 22, 2009 – Marathon Capital will be present in San Francisco for the 2nd annual Renewable Energy Finance Forum - West (REFF-West). This event brings together the largest gathering of senior renewable energy finance professionals on the West Coast. The 2009 REFF-West forum takes place from September 29-30 at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco. Marathon Capital's CEO Ted Brandt is acting as a Conference Co-Chair for REFF-West.


Last year, over 350 industry executives and investors attended REFF-West. This year, the event is expected to draw an even more impressive turnout. Like its east coast counterpart, REFF-West will focus on the latest policy developments across major renewable energy sectors and will discuss which sectors are most likely to attract finance in the current economy. This year's updated agenda will also include an issue-led debate on the industry's most important subjects: Raising finance, policy drivers, transmission and smart grid planning, industry consolidation, and carbon finance opportunities for the US renewable energy markets


"Marathon Capital attended REFF Wall Street last month and it was a huge success," said Ted Brandt, CEO of Marathon Capital. "We are just as excited to participate in REFF-West, the unique event that unites high profile West Coast players with major policy and project financiers from across the US. Marathon Capital is eager to share our perspective on the changing marketplace and our insights about the future of renewable energy finance."


Along with Brandt, the Conference Co-Chair, Marathon Capital's attendees will include Gregg Elesh, Chief Investment Officer, Ari Pribadi, Senior Vice President and Terry Grant, Managing Director/San Francisco office. All conference attendees will learn about new government initiatives, cutting-edge investment strategies, and how to overcome current constraints on raising capital.
