HOW IS A MATRIX DESIGNED TO SHARE THE RISKS OF A POWER PROJECT IN AN EMERGING MARKET?
NANCY ATIEMO msnance69@yahoo.com ABSTRACT: Emerging markets need to increase capacity in power generation to satisfy their rapid population and economic growth. However the highly capital intensive nature of such infrastructure investments, coupled with the fragile state of these economies present a significant challenge. In spite of global financial setbacks after the mid 1990s, the opportunities for private sector investment in the sector are still great. There is the need for the interests of all parties concerned to be well appreciated to facilitate financing negotiations and encourage innovative methods of bringing projects to implementation. There is also a need for objectivity in setting of energy prices in order to improve the capacity of power offtakers to meet their financial obligations to IPPs.
