Are government subsidies for battery storage a viable revenue stream?
Uncertainty and complexity of revenue streams The available government subsidies for battery storage in the UK do not currently form a sufficiently significant and stable revenue stream to ensure battery storage project financings are fundable on the basis of capacity market or ancillary services alone.
Are battery storage projects funded on a stand-alone basis?
KBRA has observed an important distinction in the funding tools for battery storage depending on whether batteries are being funded on a stand-alone basis or as part of a portfolio, versus those that are part of hybrid projects (utility-scale solar or wind combined with battery storage).
Which energy storage projects are eligible?
It is open to standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, thermal energy storage projects and pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) projects as well as those that are hybridised with renewable generation facilities. Eligible costs include civil works, storage systems, auxiliary equipment and systems and related expenses.
How much money is available for energy storage projects?
A total of €700 million (US$800 million) is available in the form of capex grants. It is open to standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, thermal energy storage projects and pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) projects as well as those that are hybridised with renewable generation facilities.
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.
Do hybrid batteries need long-term debt funding?
While long-term institutional debt funding of stand-alone and portfolio battery storage transactions has been relatively limited, there is a growing appetite for long-term nonrecourse debt funding of hybrids, which benefit from 20- or 30-year PPA offtake terms.
