The cost of environmental impacts on business operations are doubling every 14 years, according to a report that stresses stakeholders should act now. 
California’s renewable energy efforts over the course of 2011 resulted in the greatest increase in green power since the start of the programme, but the cost of contracted power under the Renewables Portfolio Standard has steadily risen since 2003, new figures show. 
The value of private equity investment in the cleantech sector has continued to see-saw in the last couple of months, and January's activity continued this trend, according to data compiled by Zephyr and Bureau van Dijk exclusively for NewNet.
