Course Learning Objectives
Most analysts predict that oil, natural gas, and coal prices will continue to rise over time. The global community also understands that finite and non-renewable sources of fuel are harming the planet and threatening the environmental and economic stability of all nations. It is imperative that decision-makers understand the policy, strategy, economic, and financial options for the development of alternative energy resources. There are exciting opportunities to use public-private partnerships as a tool to develop wind, solar, hydro, and bio-fuel projects. The economic and technological rationale is clear. The key is to understand how to develop viable projects using a combination of incentives to encourage demand and to learn how to plan and structure projects that will attract investment and that meets the need of current and future consumers.

To address these issues, IP3's course on Structuring Legal Agreements for Public-Private Partnership Concessions and Contracts will teach participants the requisite skills to be able to identify, structure, procure, finance, negotiate, and monitor public-private partnership and private sector investments in a range of alternative energy sectors. Through presentations and case studies led by expert instructors, site visits, and simulation exercises, participants are expected to apply the knowledge learned and create a special PPP Alternative Energy Action Plan for their own agency.

“ Alternative energy projects can simultaneously lower costs and reduce carbon footprints around the world. Decision-makers need to understand the potential economic and environmental benefits of this exciting growth sector and to learn how toU involve the private sector to lead this important transformation.”
Matthew Hensley
President, IP3
