Battery storage has less of a track record than other renewable energy assets such as solar and wind power. The lack of comfort on the part of lenders has meant that the project financing packages available have been generally unappealing, with low gearing and onerous covenants.
It has traditionally been difficult to secure project finance for energy storage for two key reasons. Firstly, the nascent nature of energy storage technology means that fixed income lenders and senior debt providers are naturally risk averse.
Lenders have been willing to lend to renewable assets against a guaranteed fixed revenue stream. This may take the form of a contract for difference, or some other sort of government-backed incentive, or a power purchase agreement with a bankable and creditworthy counterparty.
The second, bigger obstacle to the project financing of storage assets is that the revenue stack for batteries is more complicated than for generating assets. Unlike wind and solar projects, battery projects are not generating electricity. Rather, they provide a service and act as arbitrage assets.
Soon, SEMO, the operator of the wholesale energy market in Ireland, will allow battery energy storage systems (BESS) to play a much larger role in balancing power across the island. From 11 November, the Scheduling and Dispatch Programme (SDP) was launched. Image: Arkelin, Wikimedia Commons. . The Kylemore Battery Energy Storage System in Dublin went into operation in 2023 and has the capability of providing 30MW of fast-acting storage. The Poolbeg. . Ireland's energy storage capacity could increase almost eightfold by 2035, driven by a growing pipeline of battery projects and calls for stronger policy support, according to a new report released by industry group Energy Storage Ireland. Energy storage is emerging as one of the fastest-growing markets in the global power sector.
