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.
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.
A roundup of the biggest projects, financing and offtake deals in the energy storage sector that we have reported on this year. It’s been a positive year for energy storage in 2023, with new markets opening up and supply chain bottlenecks and price spikes for battery energy storage systems (BESS) easing, though challenges remain.

Uncertainties over revenues can make it difficult to secure financing for battery storage projects in some markets. This is particularly true for project debt from banks. There are not enough standalone battery storage projects with cash flows and scale attractive enough to take advantage of available capital. Developers tend to favour projects with short payback periods.
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.
