Healy, T J

The electric utility industry is moving toward indirect financing as a more promising way to raise the $500 to $600 billion in capital needed for expansion. Techniques of indirect financing include forming generating companies and construction trusts, leveraged leasing, and fuel-inventory financing. Some of the new strategies include forming independent or regional multi-sponsor companies, funding refuse-derived fuel or co-generation projects, imposing all-events full cost-of-service tariffs, mandating and financing residential conservation programs, and loan guarantees.
