Biorefinery Funding

(Including New Technologies)

This program is available throughout the U.S. for projects starting at approx $10 million up to approx $300 million. Funding is available for biofuels, bio-based products and “renewable” chemicals for construction, development or retrofit of emerging or new technology. Large Gasifiers are eligible for this program if they use Biomass as feedstock.

Energy storage project financing is readily available throughout most of the U.S. for:

1. Solar energy storage projects
2. Solar Plus storage projects

Fixed rate loans up to 25-years are available.  Projects can be pre-qualified at an early stage so you know what is possible before entering into contracts with various parties.

 

International Projects

We have sources for $50 million+ projects outside the U.S., but the projects need to be exceptionally strong and in stable countries with very good credit ratings.
