Storage Diligence: What Gets a Project Financed

FEOC requirements, OEM and warranty structures, augmentation, and shifting revenue assumptions are now deciding which storage projects move forward. This session gives developers and EPCs a framework for what makes one bankable, including commercial risks behind the financing decision, how to screen and qualify opportunities, and how the picture changes at the frontier of longer-duration storage. The panel spans an independent financing-risk perspective, a lender’s view of what it takes to fund a project, and a developer who has financed and built projects to the long-duration edge, backed by market data on what storage assets are earning. Attendees will learn how to screen, structure, and de-risk a storage project so it survives diligence and reaches commercial operation.
