5 FAQs about [Industrial energy storage project financing options in Chile 2025]
Why are project finance transactions increasing in Chile?
Fitch Ratings-Sao Paulo/New York-01 April 2025: Project finance transactions in Chile are expected to increase due to the recent commissioning of large battery energy storage systems (BESS), Fitch Ratings says. This should balance electricity supply and demand while reducing price volatility for renewable energy generators.
How are renewable projects financed in Chile?
In Chile, renewable energy projects can be financed on both a contract basis and a merchant basis. One such project is the SunEdison’s 73 MW Maria Elena located in Antofagasta, which was financed on a merchant basis.
How much battery storage does Chile have?
Chile has an operational installed capacity of approximately 1GW in batteries, and another 3GW is under construction. Battery storage has been largely financed by bank lending in recent years, but we believe larger projects could increase the scope for bond financing.
Why are solar PV projects being co-located in Chile?
More and more solar PV projects are co-located or hybridised with BESS in Chile as solar PV as standalone projects have become financially unviable in the country. One of the challenges Chile faces is the ever-increasing curtailment of solar PV and wind.
How do energy storage projects make money?
We expect energy storage projects to benefit from stacking, or diversifying, their sources of revenue. Many projects will derive 40%-50% of their revenue from relatively stable capacity payments. The remaining revenues will likely come from contracted power purchase agreements or arbitrage.
