Financing remains one of battery energy storage system's (BESS) biggest talking points, as bankability, risk mitigation, insurance, and more. Bankability was a hot topic for many attendees. | Image: pv magazine / Marian Willuhn.
Energy can be stored in a number of ways, depending on the source, but the most common is in chemical batteries. In this briefing, we look at some of the considerations for financing battery storage projects. Why chemical batteries? They are easily scalable.
While a quick poll at the opening session of the Battery Business & Development Forum 2025 suggested that financing is no longer seen as the biggest hurdle for battery storage deployment, the session “Bankability and Financing in the Context of BESS” drew significant interest.
The available government subsidies for battery storage in the UK do not currently form a sufficiently significant and stable revenue stream to ensure battery storage project financings are fundable on the basis of capacity market or ancillary services alone.
