4 FAQs about Financing for a 50kW Mobile Energy Storage Battery Cabinet

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.

Is battery storage a risky investment?

Firstly, the nascent nature of energy storage technology means that fixed income lenders and senior debt providers are naturally risk averse. Battery storage has less of a track record than other renewable energy assets such as solar and wind power.

Are government subsidies for battery storage a viable revenue stream?

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.

Should battery projects be co-located with renewables projects?

Where battery projects are co-located with renewables projects (which is becoming increasingly prevalent), the more stable income streams of the renewables project (given CfD support, for example) can be used to increase the confidence in the overall project's revenue streams and improve the bankability of the project.
