4 FAQs about Energy Storage Project Buyback Terms

How do energy storage contracts work?

For standalone energy storage contracts, these are typically structured with a fixed monthly capacity payment plus some variable cost per megawatt hour (MWh) of throughput. For a combined renewables-plus-storage project, it may be structured with an energy-only price in lieu of a fixed monthly capacity payment.

Can energy storage reduce peak demand?

For such a customer, an energy storage project may allow the customer to reduce its peak demand periods, and thus the associated demand charges, by reducing grid power consumption during its peak periods (so-called “peak shaving”).

Can energy storage resources be financed on a nonrecourse basis?

Key Finance-ability Provisions: Energy storage resources may also be financed on a nonrecourse basis and, like any other project financed in such manner, will need to address issues upon which nonrecourse lenders will focus, including assignment, events of default, performance requirements, key dates, and collateral.

Are battery storage projects eligible for resource adequacy attributes?

In California, utility-scale battery storage projects are eligible for resource adequacy attributes. Battery storage contracts (whether for standalone storage projects or solar or wind projects paired with storage) typically include a fixed-price payment for resource adequacy attributes.
