The primary benefit of distributed storage systems, so-called “value-stacking,” also presents a risk if competing uses of the battery are not properly managed. Unlike traditional project financings where assets are limited in their application, an energy storage system must be given the flexibility to operate in a variety of service roles.
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.
Key regulatory issues currently under review include ways to remunerate energy storage in wholesale electricity markets and ways to facilitate interconnection. Regulations affecting remuneration of energy storage services present a key risk because of the impact they can have on determining what is commercial.
Regulatory regimes for energy storage are in a state of flux. Both the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and regional transmission organizations (RTOs) are grappling with how to update regulatory and policy frameworks to better integrate energy storage and remove barriers to market participation.
In many ways, energy storage projects are no different than a typical project finance transaction. Project finance is an exercise in risk allocation.
