6 FAQs about [Power-side energy storage finance]

Does project finance apply to energy storage projects?

The general principles of project finance that apply to the financing of solar and wind projects also apply to energy storage projects. 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.

Do energy storage systems provide value to the grid?

It is now clear that energy storage systems (ESSs) can provide valuable services to the grid. For systems to be deployed, however, the value of the services that they provide must exceed the costs of the system over its lifetime. This introduces the first challenge surrounding energy storage financing – quantifying the benefits of an ESS.

Should the energy storage industry evaluate policies and financing models?

The next consideration is for the energy storage industry to evaluate the policies and financing models that have allowed the renewable energy industry to expand over the last decade and to replicate what worked well and improve on the identified shortcomings.

What is a battery energy storage system?

Battery energy storage system. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) can help address the challenge of intermittent renewable energy. Large scale deployment of this technology is hampered by perceived financial risks and lack of secured financial models.

What is a solar plus storage power purchase agreement (PPA)?

Recently, contracts have been awarded that include both renewable energy and energy storage such as the solar plus storage power purchase agreements (PPA)s executed in Hawaii and Arizona [4,5]. In these innovative contracts the cost of energy, including demand charges, are used as the basis of the PPA price.

Will a tax credit be available for energy storage projects?

However, with the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, 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.
