NEW YORK, NEW YORK, USA, February 14, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- CleanCapital announced that Melinda Baglio recently joined the company to lead both legal processes and project acquisition for the team. As Head of Acquisitions and General Counsel, Baglio brings over a decade of experience in clean energy and project finance to support due diligence, financing and acquisition of new projects. Baglio’s hire will support CleanCapital’s work to increase the flow of capital across the clean energy marketplace while expanding opportunities for clean energy investing.

Finance and acquisition for renewable energy remains a hurdle for many project owners looking to sell and fund assets. CleanCapital’s innovative approach leverages technology to address these inefficiencies. Baglio, having spent the last eight years leading all aspects of project finance on numerous high-stakes and award-winning energy projects around the world, is bringing her expertise to CleanCapital. In this new role, Baglio will also support the CleanCapital team through all aspects of project acquisition, from due diligence to term negotiation and deal execution.

“I’ve been advocating for clean energy throughout my entire career. Since turning my focus to project finance I’ve had the opportunity to work on a number of innovative deals across the renewable energy space,” stated Baglio. “I’ve seen first hand the challenges related to executing a deal that are inhibiting growth in the clean energy sector. I was drawn to CleanCapital because of their innovative approach to tackle these challenges head-on and I’m excited to join the team of respected experts in the industry”

“Having worked with Melinda for many years, I witnessed her exceptional judgment and ability first hand. She has worked on a wide range of clean energy transactions and witnessed many of the challenges faced by developers,” said CleanCapital CEO, Thomas Byrne. “As CleanCapital strives to deliver innovative financing solutions to all segments of the clean energy market, that effort will be significantly advanced with the addition of Melinda.”

Most recently, Melinda was in the Energy infrastructure Project and Asset Finance group at White & Case LLP. Earlier in her career she was on the Project Finance team at Chadbourne and Parke LLP and an Environmental Advocate for NYPIRG.
