Cogeneration equipment is relevant to the transition from cheap abundant fuel to new energy infrastructures. Both direct ownership and project financing are available for cogeneration. Direct ownership can be handled through tax-benefit transfers, tax-exempt financing, arbitrage electricity sales under the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act, and non-recourse financing. Third-party financing is a financing and ownership alternative that requires careful analysis for each project because of variations in capital and legal constraints, taxes, accounting treatment, facilities, and fuel sources.
