Can you finance a solar energy storage project?
Since the majority of solar projects currently under construction include a storage system, lenders in the project finance markets are willing to finance the construction and cashflows of an energy storage project. However, there are certain additional considerations in structuring a project finance transaction for an energy storage project.
Why do energy storage projects need project financing?
The rapid growth in the energy storage market is similarly driving demand for project financing. The general principles of project finance that apply to the financing of solar and wind projects also apply to energy storage projects.
Is storage the key to the Green Energy Revolution?
As the technology for generating renewable energy has advanced at breakneck pace – almost tripling globally between and – one thing has become clear: our ability to tap into renewable power has outstripped our ability to store it. Storage is indispensable to the green energy revolution.
Should storage projects be funded?
One large missing piece has been funding. Storage projects are risky investments: high costs, uncertain returns, and a limited track record. Only smart, large-scale, low-cost financing can lower those risks and clear the way for a clean future.
Will a tax credit be available for energy storage projects?
However, with the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act of , tax credits are now available for standalone energy storage systems, and thus lenders may be willing to provide bridge capital that is underwritten based on the receipt of proceeds from an anticipated tax equity investment, similar to renewable energy projects.
Are energy storage technologies the key to reducing energy costs?
Energy storage technologies are also the key to lowering energy costs and integrating more renewable power into our grids, fast. If we can get this right, we can hold on to ever-rising quantities of renewable energy we are already harnessing – from our skies, our seas, and the earth itself. The gap to fill is very wide indeed.
