Project finance is the long-term financing of infrastructure and industrial projects based upon the projected cash flows of the project rather than the balance sheets of its sponsors. Usually, a project financing structure involves a number of equity investors, known as 'sponsors', as well as a 'syndicate' of banks or other lending institutions that provide loans to the operation. They are most commonly non-recourse loans, which are secured by the project assets and paid entirely from project cash flow, rather than from the general assets or creditworthiness of the project sponsors, a decision in part supported by financial modeling. The financing is typically secured by all of the project assets, including the revenue-producing contracts. Project lenders are given a lien on all of these assets and are able to assume control of a project if the project company has difficulties complying with the loan terms.
Generally, a special purpose entity is created for each project, thereby shielding other assets owned by a project sponsor from the detrimental effects of a project failure. As a special purpose entity, the project company has no assets other than the project. Capital contribution commitments by the owners of the project company are sometimes necessary to ensure that the project is financially sound or to assure the lenders of the sponsors' commitment. Project finance is often more complicated than alternative financing methods. Traditionally, project financing has been most commonly used in the extractive (mining), transportation, telecommunications industries as well as sports and entertainment venues.

Modern Military Technology Documentary - The Future In Military Weapons - Military Channel This is a list of tools offered individually by the Usa armed forces, sorted by type and also current degree of service. While the general understanding is that crew-served weapons require more than one person to operate them, there are essential exceptions in the case of both squad automated weapons (SAW) as well as sniper rifles. Within the Table of Company and Devices for both the United States Military as well as the U.S. Marine Corps, these two classes of tools are understood to be crew-served, as the driver of the weapon (identified as a sniper or as a SAW artilleryman) has an assistant that brings added ammunition and also affiliated devices, acts as a spotter, and is also totally certified i...

The European Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan) aims to accelerate the development and deployment of low-carbon technologies. It seeks to improve new technologies and bring down costs by coordinating research and helping to finance projects. The SET-Plan promotes research and innovation efforts across Europe by supporting technologies with the greatest impact on the EU's transformation to a low-carbon energy system. It promotes cooperation amongst EU countries, companies, research institutions, and the EU itself.
Uncertainty remains how countries will use international credits pre- and post-2020, and how existing CDM projects could be supported by future international climate finance. African negotiators and project developers discuss with researchers how to enable the continuation of mitigation activities. Speakers: African negotiators, project developers and researchers
Are the various technologies for targeted interventions in the climate (known as climate engineering or geoengineering) that are currently being investigated viable for deployment? What effects and risks would be associated with the deployment of these technologies? What role – if any – will climate engineering play in European climate policy? What challenges does climate engineering present for research and its regulation? The report on the first European Transdisciplinary Assessment of Climate Engineering (EuTRACE Report) provides insight into these questions. As part of the EU-financed research project EuTRACE, fourteen research organisations in five European countries (Germany, France, the UK, Norway and Austria) have gathered data on the current state of research on climate engineerin...

Recreational fishing constitutes the dominant or sole use of freshwater fish stocks in industrialized nations. In Germany, angling clubs play a key role in freshwater fisheries management. A very common management tool used by anglers is fish stocking. The aim of Besatzfisch (German: stocked fish) is to evaluate fish stocking from ecological, economic and social perspectives. Therefore, the project cooperates closely with German angling clubs. The research design of the social ecological research project is both interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary. Besatzfisch was financed by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). Project leader is Prof. Dr. Robert Arlinghaus from the Leibniz-Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) in Berlin and the Humboldt-U...
There is a hidden world under Antarctica, in a new study, researchers have shown giant ‘wetlands’ 800 metres beneath the Ice in western Antarctica. Thanks to the Whillans Ice Stream Subglacial Access Research Drilling (WISSARD) project financed by the National Science Foundation (NSF) researchers are one step closer to discovering exactly what lies beneath the thick ice sheets covering most parts of the icy continent. Reports indicate that Lake Whillans — first discovered in 2007, covering a staggering area of 20sq miles— which lies beneath 800 meters of ice in Western Antarctica is eerily similar to a ‘wetland.’ Researchers hope that further studies will allow them to understand how sea levels rise, and how ice behaves in response to global warming. “It is amazing to think that we did ...
