Modern BESS offtake agreements: A guide for project
Reading time: 10 min The financial viability of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and renewable energy projects hinges on well-structured offtake agreements. These
Choosing the right financing structure for your battery energy storage system (BESS) depends on your project's risk tolerance and financial strategy. Each model offers different levels of security, market exposure, and revenue potential, allowing asset owners to align their investment approach with their long-term goals.
It is nonetheless still eye-opening to note just how big those differences in cost are. The average for a turnkey system in China including 1-hour, 2-hour and 4-hour duration BESS was just US$101/kWh. In the US, the average was US$236/kWh and in Europe US$275/kWh, more than double China's average cost.
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are accepted as one of the key solutions to address these challenges. BESS can respond to real-time renewable energy fluctuation challenges through its fast response capability (congestion relief, frequency regulation, wholesale arbitrage, etc.).
Although risk-taking investors seeking a higher return on their investment in BESS can translate into higher energy tariffs, it is not ideal for large-scale adoption of BESS. Moreover, the capital available with this class of investors is limited compared to this solution's growth potential.
This offers comfort to private financers to provide capital at a competitive rate. Independent BESS projects, only supporting renewable energy projects, can be bundled together, and issued as green bonds to potential large investors.
