Mr. Nick Ashmore:

The large-scale investors that provide finance are banks. More recently, financial institutions such as insurance companies and pension plans would typically write cheques of €100 million or more each. Projects that fall in under €100 million are more likely to funded by local banks but there is also an opportunity for us to be there as well.
