Financing a cogeneration project is like financing any capital-intensive project. The revenues from the sale of products from the cogeneration project (or the cost reduction resulting from the use of these products) must be sufficient to provide for the operating expenses and produce sufficient returns for the investments made in the project by the financing sources. A number of depreciation and tax benefits for cogeneration projects provide many different financing options and, in the past several years, innovative financing schemes which have been developed to implement cogeneration projects further expand the options available. This article discusses the major considerations in financing a cogeneration project, and provides an overview of financing sources and types of financing, major financing risks, and methods to minimize or contain such risks.
