Principles to adapt financing mechanisms for fully integrated hybrid energy systems

As the electricity sector evolves, and as all energy types (thermal, electric, chemical, etc.) become more coupled, there has been increased interest to develop deploy hybrid systems (HES). This work focuses on fully integrated HES, where are multiple sources products, often coupled through a storage buffer. A significant amount of available literature this describes technology pathways for HES; however, it is unclear how financial institutions should treat these systems. Fully HES represent an increase in complexity from their stand-alone counterparts, but they also potentially mitigate risk provide value system, which not yet accounted financing mechanisms that could help enable such paper provides some examples proposes principles adapt adequately capture
