Perkins, J M

Industries have several approaches available to finance feasibility studies and the development of cogeneration and other energy-saving projects without using their own capital. It is possible for an industrial firm to serve as the host of a cogeneration facility through a contract granting it savings based on a guaranteed fixed sum of money, a share in the profits, equity, or some combination of these. The article describes methods of financing up-front studies, proceeds through a review of the possible relationships between the energy user and developer, and concludes with a description of construction and project financing vehicles. The IPS Energy Fund provides financing for feasibility and design studies up to a limit of $250,000 per project if the facility will significantly benefit the host.
