Technical FAQs 4

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.

Can you finance a battery storage project?

Energy can be stored in a number of ways, depending on the source, but the most common is in chemical batteries. In this briefing, we look at some of the considerations for financing battery storage projects. Why chemical batteries? They are easily scalable.

Are energy storage projects different than power industry project finance?

Most groups involved with project development usually agree that energy storage projects are not necessarily different than a typical power industry project finance transaction, especially with regards to risk allocation.

How big will energy storage capacity be in 2022?

An estimated 387 gigawatts (GW) (or 1,143 gigawatt hours (GWh)) of new energy storage capacity is expected to be added globally from 2022 to 2030, which would result in the size of global energy storage capacity increasing by 15 times compared to the end of 2021.
