The terms for financing a storage project in California are more attractive. A fully contracted stand-alone storage project (e.g., with a fully tolled 15-year offtake contract) can obtain a bank loan for up to 90% of the construction costs, and 100% for term financing. The cost of financing a merchant project is less attractive.

New Mexico recently released recommendations that included establishing financial incentives for energy storage and providing support for demonstration projects [38]. In Texas, a bill was recently passed that classifies energy storage installations as generation assets [ 38 ].
Image: Lazard. While decreases in costs continue to make energy storage more and more competitive, financial advisory and asset management firm Lazard has highlighted just how variable project economics can be, citing examples of US projects with 9%, 11% and 21% IRR (internal rate of return). Lazard, which has advised the likes of …

The financial evaluation of renewable energy sources (RES) projects is well explored in the literature, but many different methods have been followed by different authors. Then, it is important to understand if and how these methods have been changing and what factors may have driven new approaches. Therefore, this article aims to explore …
Energy storage developers can look to renewable energy as a guide for how nascent technologies can compete against established energy technologies in the market. The industry is in need of case studies, not to showcase that the technologies perform, but to demonstrate different mechanisms that projects can implement to …
U.S. energy storage capacity will need to scale rapidly over the next two decades to achieve the Biden-Harris Administration''s goal of achieving a net-zero economy by 2050. DOE''s recently published Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) Liftoff Report found that the U.S. grid may need between 225 and 460 gigawatts of LDES by 2050, requiring ...
