Why now
- Increasing co-location of solar and storage projects is reshaping PPA structures and financing needs.
- Industrial buyers are cautious, slowing hybrid PPA adoption despite market interest.
- Recent industry summits highlight urgent focus on BESS procurement standards and risk management.
Why it matters
- Hybrid PPAs are key to integrating storage with renewables, impacting project bankability and financing.
- Battery storage is becoming essential for solar projects to remain viable and meet industrial demand.
- Ensuring BESS quality and performance is critical to mitigate risks and secure reliable energy supply.

Recurring claims
- Hybrid PPAs combining solar and storage are harder to close with industrial offtakers than standard solar deals.
- Standalone solar projects backed by standard long-term offtake agreements are losing bankability, making battery integration increasingly necessary.
- Ensuring quality and performance in BESS procurement requires careful product selection and risk mitigation.
