A total of 311 applications were received for clean energy or decarbonisation projects after the call for submissions opened last summer. Of these, seven were selected to receive direct funding from a €1.1 billion budget and include hydrogen, carbon capture and storage, advanced solar cell manufacturing and other technologies.
And yet, despite the overwhelmingly urgent need for energy storage around the world, the application of project finance mechanisms to battery energy storage projects has been patchy to date. This report analyses the barriers to obtaining project finance for BESS projects, as well as highlighting the lessons that can be learnt from early BESS project finance success stories.
