Project finance in the construction of energy projects

Project finance is the funding (financing) of long-term infrastructure, industrial projects, and public services using a non-recourse or limited recourse financial structure. The debt and equity used to finance the project are paid back from the cash flow generated by the project. As a rule, these financial resources are divided into two groups.

The first group is associated with the resources of creditors (for example, long-term investment loans), and the second group is associated with the resources of owners and investors. The relatively high initial investment costs for the construction of power plants and electrical substations require the right choice of methods and sources of financing and the construction of the most realistic financial model, taking into account the expected income of the energy project in the future. Here it is necessary to take into account the type of connected power plant, the type of consumers, the expected level of consumption, location, goals and the scale of the project as a whole.

With the development of off balance sheet financing (project finance), energy companies have gained a much greater degree of freedom, being able to establish a special purpose vehicle for obtaining loans and shifting the risks to capital providers.

Long-term financing for energy projects actually converts high initial investment costs into periodic debt service payments or dividend payments to project shareholders. Most companies do not “like” debt very much, trying to keep the debt ratio close to zero. For such companies, in order to achieve strategic goals, it is more convenient to develop the project through a formally independent special-purpose vehicle (SPV). In addition to protecting against multiple project risks, this approach increases the administrative and managerial flexibility of the project.

Introduction of the PF mechanism completely changes the approach to building a financial model for the energy project and thereby creats the below benefits;

•High potential for attracting financial resources, significantly exceeding the financial capabilities of sponsors.
•Minimization of project risks through their rational distribution among all participants in the energy project.
•Since the financing of the project is carried out through a newly created company, lenders do not impose strict requirements on the originator.
•Reducing country risks of the project by registering a management company (SPV subsidiary) in the host country, while the SPV itself is registered in the country of origin of the capital.
•Linking the project debt repayment schedule to the facility commissioning schedule so that the debt is fully serviced by the project’s cash flows.
