EUROPE: Enel Green Power senior vice president Roberto Deambrogio speaking during the EWEA leaders panel in Barcelona on regional diversification and hybrid wind and hydro projects.

Diversification into different regions hedges the risk from both a resource and regulatory point of view, said Deambrogio. The Italian renewables producer currently operates in 17 countries, with projects planned in four more. A precondition to entering new countries is the potential for more than one technology, he said. The company is working on hybrid technologies, where water is pumped by electricity generated by wind.
