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.
These projects will have long-term predictable revenue streams. In addition, lenders may be willing to finance merchant cashflows, but with less leverage and subject to detailed market studies and cash sweeps. These trends for solar and wind projects also apply to energy storage projects.
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.
These tax credits have been financed in the nonrecourse project finance markets, often using construction bridge debt that is fully repaid once the tax equity investment is made after the project is placed in service (as defined by the IRS).

California's energy storage ecosystem, built since Assembly Bill 2514 and through 2021, includes a crucial component: the PU's Energy Storage Procurement Framework. This framework motivates the development of both demand and supply in the energy storage marketplace.
The PU's Energy Storage Procurement Framework provides crucial motivation to the development of both demand and supply in this marketplace. Since the time of Assembly Bill 2514 and through 2021 California built a rich ecosystem for energy storage research and development, commercialization, and project deployment.
This work has been developed and published by Lumen Energy Strategy, LLC in Oakland, California under commission by the California Public Utilities Commission.
The solar market was further constrained by an ongoing petition before the US Department of Commerce alleging that certain solar manufacturers in Southeast Asia were circumventing antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) orders on solar cells and modules from China.
