Of the alternative power
sources, the least understood is geothermal energy. Funding projects financing
developments of this resource is available here at EF123. Fossil fuel resources
are depleting and climate change is in the news. Exploring sustainable
alternative power sources for domestic and industrial consumption is a reality
of life today. Relying on biofuels, the wind currents, the solar rays or
harnessing the power of moving waters are not the only remaining options. There
is an abundant and relatively untapped source of power, geothermal energy.
Financing projects and funding developments of this resource is where we at
EF123 come in. This resource can be expensive to get to in order to harness but
once it's tapped into it is fairly cheap to exploit. It involves an exploration
and drilling process similar to oil in many cases. As with other types of
alternative power, high oil prices and the uncertainty of uninterrupted supplies
are making this source more and more attractive.
Financing geothermal energy
projects funding developments is completely a green renewable power endeavor
making it more reliable than domestic or imported oil or natural gas. Not only
is it entirely renewable if managed properly, it's cheap once up and running. An
efficient and productive geo power source has three main components. First, a
high thermal gradient which really means accessible hot material. Second, a
rechargeable reservoir liquid, usually water. Finally, deep permeable pathways
for the liquid to circulate through the hot material, usually rock. One way we
can generate geo power by drilling holes deep into the earth then pumping water
through one end. By the time it rises back to the surface the water can be
hundreds of degrees in temperature which we then use the steam to drive a
turbine which turns a generator creating electrical power. This is one of the
best natural, non-polluting energies available around the world.
The land cost in funding a
geo power plant is part of financing the geothermal energy project development
in total. Land costs can be less expensive than if you were planning to develop
an oil, gas, coal, wind, solar or nuclear power plant because geo plants can
take up very little space. You don't need to acquire large parcels of land.
Another factor that comes into play is that no fuel is required to generate the
power. This means the operating costs for the plants are very low as there are
no costs for purchasing, transporting, or cleaning up of fuels you may otherwise
need to generate the electricity. The overall financial aspect of geo plants are
fantastic. Developers only need to provide power to the fluid pumps and other
plant operations needs, which can be generated by the facility itself. In
the year 2009, there were some 6 million homes and businesses operating as a
result of financing geothermal energy projects funding power developments.

As investment bankers, insurance companies and
other institutional investors are becoming more familiar with advanced
technologies, regulatory environment and transaction financial structures, this
type of development financing for funding geothermal energy power projects. Many recent developments
qualified for 100% debt structure that allows the developer to maintain all
equity ownership as well as all tax credits.
Other options include up to 100% utilizing equity and debt combination.
Capitalizing is a straight forward
process
and just takes a common sense approach as with other alternative power
enterprises. Developers of fossil fuel-based developments in North America have
employed traditional strategies to fund. This technique has been less
available to developers of renewable green power. . With
encouraging
trends in the economical and reliability of new technologies and the recent transition of
the industry to one that is dominated by bigger players with proven track records
and established professional relationships, the available financial options are
growing.
The first step in the process for the lender
or investor is to perform an in-depth analysis of the
developer's business plan and possibly even hire an independent consultant to conduct a
feasibility or other study. These studies will analyze the geological data
and should prove the financial viability of the development. These studies
will also display the technical, architectural, design, financial and other aspects of the
undertaking. These elements are
critical to the source of funds in its assessment of the risk. The
development may or may not be secured by all assets, including a lien on the
facilities and real property. Other lenders underwrite solely on the Offtake
Agreement or Power Purchase Agreement ( PPA) secured by assignment of operating revenues
and minimum capacity guarantees. Still some lenders require liens on all
personal property; and assignment of agreements and permits, including any
letters of credit or performance guarantee bonds to which the developer is the beneficiary.
We at EF123 are here to provide expertise in getting your business
plan from paper to operational reality. We have a vast portfolio of
lenders and institutional investors that need good renewable green
developments that will provide power for the future needs of America and
the world. What better place to invest than the electrical and fuel
needs of this planet today and into the distant future. The financial
state of this nation and the world is driving money into sectors that
are definite winners with the support of global governments as well as
money managers that want safe, high yielding investments.
