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.
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.
Battery storage has less of a track record than other renewable energy assets such as solar and wind power. The lack of comfort on the part of lenders has meant that the project financing packages available have been generally unappealing, with low gearing and onerous covenants.
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.
The second, bigger obstacle to the project financing of storage assets is that the revenue stack for batteries is more complicated than for generating assets. Unlike wind and solar projects, battery projects are not generating electricity. Rather, they provide a service and act as arbitrage assets.
The traditional approach to energy storage projects has restricted investment because it requires financiers to carry out significant due diligence whenever they fund a scheme – because of this, most energy storage investment has historically been off balance sheet or via specialist funds.
