3 Challenges And Solutions A. Growing The Bioeconomy, Renewable Power And Energy Storage Industry Challenges and Solutions 1. Challenges What are the obstacles to growing bioeconomy, renewable power and energy storage? Perceived Lack of Funds at the Company and Project Levels. Grants and Equity. Bank and Corporate (Bonds) Debt. Lack of Certainty in Government Programs. Government Funding Programs Require Continuing Annual Appropriations for Existing and New Programs. Trump Administration and House and Senate Omnibus Appropriations Bills significantly would reduce or eliminate loan guarantee, loan and grant programs for FY2018. We succeeded in keeping the programs funding through December 8, 2017 in the recently enacted 3 month Continuing Resolution, having removed restrictive Section 714 which greatly would have reduced or eliminated program funding and entirely eliminated compensation for program officials. Tax Incentives Require Extensions of Existing and Creation of New Incentives for (i) biofuels, biochemical, bioproducts, small wind, biopower, hydropower and other expired incentives and (ii) energy storage not fully integrated into power units. Energy Storage Association (ESA) written comments to Treasury; Senate Energy Bill would accomplish a similar expansion to non-fully integrated systems. Senate and House bills would prohibit wind incentives within 50 miles of military installations. Trump proposed Tax Reform Proposal would reduce corporate taxes to 15% from 35% and, thus, make tax incentive extensions unlikely. Federal Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS/RINs), State Low Carbon Fuel Standards (LCFS) and State Renewable Portfolio Standards ( RPS ) Require Certainty. These federal RFS, state LCFS and state RPS laws have been under attack for many years. 2. Solutions What are the energy and industrial policies needed to move forward? Creative Debt Financing and Equity Funding Company, Project and Portfolio Levels. Insurance Protections. The insurance industry creatively would wrap technology risks and credit enhance bank and corporate debt. Tax Incentives Availability as part of Tax Reform Legislation. The ESA has filed written comments to Treasury to expand the use of 30% ITCs for energy storage beyond the current applicability of energy storage equipment fully integrated into renewable power units. - i.e. non power unit integrated independent systems and those systems integrated into the grid for power stability and resilience. More likely states take over to create, expand and/or extend tax incentives. RFS, LCFS and RPS Certainty. There was a Senate bill (Senator Udall (D-NM) S.1264) in Congress in 2016 for a Federal RPS in the last Congress. 2
4 Challenges And Solutions A. Growing The Bioeconomy, Renewable Power And Energy Storage Industry Challenges and Solutions (continued) 3. Good News Plenty of funding is available, even though global clean energy investments in renewables fell to $53.6 billion, down 17% year-on-year from $64.8 billion and overall clean energy investments fell 18% to $287.5 billion in 2016 according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance in April 2017 generally attributed to falling CAPEX as technology betters. 4. Bad News These funds are difficult to access and structure, particularly with federal funds and incentives in the crosshairs. 3
5 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding Type of Funding Corporate- Level Funding Project- Level Funding Dilutive ( D ) or Non- Dilutive ( ND ) 1. Grants (State and Federal DOE, USDA, DOT) ND 2. Angel Funding (including Crowdfunding (as modified in June 2015 by Regulation A-Plus), Foundations and Family Offices Prime Coalition, CREO Syndicated, as part of Clean Energy Investment Initiative -- up to $4 billion (Recent White House Initiative) Equity (Keiretsu largest/ $24 billion in angel private placements with 6% to cleantech) D 3. Venture Capital Equity (Zymergin raised $44 million in series A round for its microbial programming to high value bioproducts from Data Collective, Draper Fisher, HVF, Innovation Endeavors, Obvious Ventures, True Venture and Two Sigma Ventures.) 4. Private Equity (TIAA CREF North American Sustainable Energy fund - $1 billion; UK s Smart City Enterprise Investment Fund of $150 MM for energy efficiency; Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is committing $2 billion over 5 years for clean technology. Also, $1 billion Break through Energy Condition and $2 trillion Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund.) 5. Strategic Equity (Bioeconomy companies raised approximately $1.3 billion in the past 12 months or a 16% increase in deals and 17% drop in deal size per raise). Total acquired Saft for $1.1 billion. Tesla announced the proposed $2.6 billion acquisition of Solar City. D D D 6. Infrastructure Funds Equity (USDA s 4 new 2x $150 MM, $100+ MM and $25+ MM equity and debt funds Advantage Capital Partners, Rural Business Investment Corporations ( RBICs ) Made In Rural America, Meritus and Innova, respectively, KKR raised a 2 nd fund of $3.1 billion, and Sovereign Wealth Funds) 7. State (California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New York, Washington) and Federal Green Funds, State Revolving Funds (tend to be grants, loans, loan guarantees and not equity as government entities shy away from investments) D ND 8. International Green Funds (Australia, Brazil, Canada, Caribbean Energy Security Initiative ($20 million US fund), European Investment Bank (Euros 8 billion), India, Malaysia, UK) (tend to be grants, loans, loan guarantees and not equity as government entities shy away from investments) ND 9. Tax Equity ITCs, PTCs, Bonus and MACRs Depreciation and NMTCs Initially D to later ND 10. Sponsor Equity Project Developers, Hedge Funds (use has grown in last 2 years), YieldCos and EB-5 funding D 11. Portfolio Equity - MLPs/ REITs/ YieldCos D 4
6 B. Grants Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding 1. DOE Office of Energy & Efficiency programs of single to double digit $ millions in grants available including ARPA-E In 2016, DOE biofuels grants - $90 million (potentially $210 million) Integrated Biorefinery, $8 million for algae-based biofuels, and $7 million for Integrated Biorefinery Optimization. In 2017, grants for: Navy one $55 million biojet fuel for 1 st commercial production and DOE/USDA National Institute of Food & Agriculture (NIFA) at $22.7 million. $30 MM program for energy storage grants. Wind grants previously in EERE s Electricity Office in 2016: $1.8 million for wind turbine blades and $10.7 million for offshore wind development. 2. USDA $500,000 grants in the Section 9007 Renewable Energy for America Program ( REAP ). 3. SBA Small Business Innovative Research grants ( SBIRs ). 4. DOT grants for clean fuels, clean transportation and GHG emission reductions. 5. FY2018 Trump Budget, along with House and Senate Appropriations Bills would eliminate or significantly reduce many of these programs funding levels. Congress failed to pass similar, but lesser, cuts in the FY2017 House Appropriations Bill and restored all programs increasing them on average by 3%. On September 8, 2017, Congress passed a 3 month Continuing Resolution until December 8, 2017 and keeping FY2018 funding at FY2017 levels. C. Early Stage Equity 1. Angel Funding 200,000 $3 MM Kieretsu Forum is the largest angel funder 5% to 7% ROIs. 2. Crowdfunding more than $45 billion raised average ROIs 5% - 7.5% Mosaic and Abundance are top crowdfunders. 3. Family Offices can be a type of strategic equity often in for multiple private placement rounds and don t neglect large Texas oil and gas families that need to place funds to use in times of depressed oil and gas prices. 7% plus ROIs expected. 5
7 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding D. Venture Capital Equity Global Cleantech VC was $10.8 billion in 2015 up 11% over In 2016, it was $14.76 billion. In 2017 Q1, late stage VC funding was up more than 20%. VCs seek double digit percentage returns in 7-10 years Expensive money at early stage company level. 1. Energy Storage raised 5.3% of this $10.8 billion in cleantech VC funding in 2015 or $572 MM. In 2016, energy storage VC funding exceeded $700 million or more than triple that in Energy Storage 1 st Q 2016 had 54 million in 10 VC deals, compared to $108 million in 6 deals in 4 th Q Energy Storage - In 2016, Sunverge Energy ($36 million), VionX Energy ($5 million), Skelton Technologies ($4.3 million) and Voltaiq ($1.6 million) raised VC funds for energy storage. 4. Energy Storage it showed a 41.2 MW storage deployment for 2 nd Q 2016, of which MW was behind the meter. For 2016, GTM projected 287 MW of new energy storage deployment, while 300 MW actually was installed. U.S. Projections for 2017 are 478 MW and approximately 2,045 MW in Worldwide the GTM projections are 25 GW by EOSEnergy believes energy storage s levelized costs to be $50 MWhto 60 MWh or 5-6 cents/kwh versus 2 cents 5 cents per KWh for wind and solar. 5. Solar VC investment levels up in due to the 5 year extension of the tax incentives ITC, PTC, Bonus Depreciation. The ITC extension is expected to add 25 GW of new solar power over that 5 year period costing nearly $40 billion. Solar PV grew by more than 50% to reach over 74 GW globablly in Solar VC investments are strong in Wind VC investment levels up in 2015 to $520 million due to the 5 year extension of the tax incentives ITC, PTC, Bonus Depreciation. The PTC extension is expected to add 19 GW of new wind power over that 5 year period. In 2016, North America added 4 GW of wind power of the 9.4 GW under construction. AWEA says there is 82 GW of wind power up and running. Wind VC investments are strong in Advanced Fuel Production generated $28.9 billion in revenue in However, much of biofuels VC money has shifted to biochemicals and products in 2016: Zymergen ($130 million series B for microbial strain optimization), Ginko Bioworks ($100 million Series B for biological organisms used in energy medicine, food and other industrial biotechnologies) and Sapphire Energy ($92 million Series B for animal feed market from algae biomass). 6
8 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding E. Company and Project Levels Private Equity later stage funding at company and project levels. Looking for double digit % returns. Private equity was up in 2016 and is cloudy with a high degree of uncertainty for 2017 with slow fundraising. F. Company and Project Levels Strategic Equity O&Ms, EPCs, Utilities, etc. their participation has become very important and at earlier funding rounds as VCs have pivoted to IT and social media. Equity ROI and ownership percentages can be better for developers with strategic investor partners. G. Infrastructure Funds Equity primarily at project level. 1. Private Equity, Strategic Equity and Infrastructure Funds Equity often cross over into each other s spaces. 7
9 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding H. State and Federal Green Funds Generally Grants, Loans and Loan Guarantees, but not Equity. 1. Connecticut Green Bank Fund $50 - $100 million available annually. To date, it has generated more than $1 billion in cleantech investments since New York Green Bank/NYSERDA/REV nearly $5 billion in these programs. 3. Hawaii Green Bank new $150 million lending facility under GEMS for 4% loans according to my discussion with Commissioner Lorraine Akiba. Has not been significantly used as some Hawaiian commercial banks can provide even lower cost funding. Hawaii s RPS, increasing to 100% by 2045, will spur investment. 4. California Green Bank approximately $13 billion. 5. Michigan Green Bank new $105 million. 6. Rhode Island Green Bank new $16 million. 7. Washington State Clean Energy Fund new $36 million. 8. State Revolving Funds - $3 billion in funds allocated to states by DOE under 2009 Recovery Act. Funds still available use for working capital, reserve accounts, credit enhancements, grants, etc. 9. More and more states must step up with creative green fund programs to replace the pull back at the federal level. 8
10 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding I. International Green Funds Generally used for Grants, Loans and Loan Guarantees, but not equity. 1. Australia many new funds with nearly $15 billion available for grants, loans and loan guarantees, including energy storage. South Australia has a $150 million Renewable Technology Fund for renewable energy, bulk energy storage and bioenergy projects (with a minimum 15 MW and including storage facilities) using grants, loans and loan guarantees. Queensland, Australia is providing its own set of clean energy funds in the amount of $1 billion for grants, loans and loan guarantees for sustainable and export oriented industrial biotechnology and bioproducts. In August 2017, Queensland also issued an RFP for 100 MW of energy storage projects by 2020, alongside 400 MW of new solar and wind projects. 2. United Kingdom 3. Canada 4. India 5. Brazil 6. Asia 7. Europe 8. Africa 9. World Bank s Global Environmental Fund ( GEF ) 10. United Nation s Green Climate Fund ( GCF ) 11. Climate Investor One Fund ( CIOF ) 12. Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund ( PIF ) new $2 trillion from Sovereign Wealth Funds and other funding sources. 9
11 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding J. Tax Equity 1. ITCs 30% for 5 years for solar (scales down from after and then is 10% in perpetuity) and wind (scales down during and then phases out); biopower and others green energy have 30% ITCs that expired on December 31, Biofuels and renewable chemicals have no federal ITCs, although some states have them: Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska. The House and Senate have proposed in Summer of 2017 a 30% ITC for biogas and nutrient recovery systems or the first ITCs for bioeconomy projects since the 1986 Tax Act sunset the original ones. Senators Martin Heinrich (D-NM) and Al Franken (D-MN) introduced the Energy Storage Tax Incentive and Deployment Act of 2017 (S.1868) in late September 2017 to provide a 30% ITC for all uses of energy storage instead of the current qualification only for such units that are installed into solar projects at the time the solar system is being deployed. Earlier in 2017, Maryland enacted the first state 30% ITC for energy storage to cover all uses of energy storage systems subject to a cap. 2. PTCs 2.3 cents/kwh for wind/1.1 cents/kwh 2.3 cents/kwh for biopower the wind power PTC scales down for wind during 2017 until phased out on December 31, 2019 while the PTC expired for biopower, biofuels and others on December 31, Some states have PTCs for biofuels and/or biochemicals: Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska. 3. Bonus Depreciation 50% scales down through Sell under complex structures sale-leaseback, partnership flips, inverted leases for cash up front to use in projects small number of tax equity providers approximately Need 2d/3 rd tier tax equity providers for smaller projects. 5. NMTCs can provide 10% - 20% of total project costs to a project financing depending on project size. Must locate in qualified economically distressed areas and use locals in the project job force. $3.5 billion annually available through December 31, Tax Incentives Extension Legislation. The proposed Tax Reform Act would set corporate tax rates at 15% under the Trump plan which likely would reduce the chances of extending expired tax incentives. States must take over. 7. New In Construction Rulings from IRS that further clarifies the use of the PTC and ITC. 10
12 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding K. Sponsor Equity 1. Project Developers. 2. Hedge Funds new to cleantech in last 3 years. Require double digit returns and quick exits (2 3 years). 3. YieldCos when buying and operating assets. 4. EB-5 funding (enacted in 1990) visas for funds if the applicant pays $500,000 for 10 direct, indirect and induced jobs can be significant to a project (structured as debt or equity). Proposed legislation would require this funding to be used in economically depressed areas. Current expiration is September 30, We have obtained $91 million of EB-5 funds for a $210 million biogas project. 11
13 Equity And Equity Equivalent Funding L. Portfolio Equity 1. MLPs $650 billion low cost capital raising mechanisms with energy storage being assigned into corporation below the MLP ( Hybrid MLP ). Requires new legislation to include renewable energy and chemicals and energy storage I co-wrote Senator Coons MLP Parity Act proposed legislation several years back. 2. REITs $960 billion low cost capital raising mechanisms with energy storage being assigned into corporation below the REIT ( Hybrid REIT ). Energy storage may work in the REIT itself. Requires new legislation to include renewable energy, green chemicals and bio-based products, by modifying the current definition of real property which entails no moving parts. 3. YieldCos low cost capital raising mechanisms with renewable power and energy storage being assigned into Yieldcos. These vehicles are available without new legislation for renewable fuels, green chemicals and bio-based products. Coming back (Abengoa and SunEdison Yieldcos are solvent despite parent bankruptcies and NRG/Pattern YieldCos showing 4% - 8% additional yields). 4. MLPs and REITs 1 level of taxation at higher ordinary income tax rates versus YieldCos at 2 levels of taxation at lower capital gains tax rates. 5. MLPs/REITs can t monetize tax incentives due to at risk depreciation and passive loss rules. 6. Yieldcos can monetize tax credits within the vehicle. 7. Hybrid MLPs/REITs can monetize tax credits in the corporation below the partnership an upsidedown YieldCo structure. These vehicles today can hold renewable energy, green chemicals, bio-based products and energy storage. 8. Under the proposed Trumps 15% corporate tax rate, tax structuring under these vehicles (MLPs, REITs and YieldCo) could become more attractive particularly if many of these proposed changes to MLPs and REITs would be implemented and MLP/REIT pass through members are corporates in LLC or partnership structures taking advantage of these expected lower tax rates. 12
14 Debt M. Debt Government Loan Programs 1. DOE Section 1703 (commenced in 2005) a. Uncapped Federal Finance Bank/Treasury Department ( FFB ) loans credit enhanced by DOE loan guarantees. Many new and unique renewable, clean fossil and nuclear technologies are able to be funded. Alternative Fuel and Electric Vehicle recharging infrastructure are included for such funding. b. New Facility Plan for multiple (10, 20, 30, projects) smaller projects like a credit line to draw approximately 3.5%/30 year funding for approximately 70% of total project costs. We have a behind meter client filing in Part 2 and an in front of the meter client filing a Part 1 Application. Wind and solar can participate with energy storage or alone with demonstrable new technologies and/or energy efficiencies/savings. Biofuels, clean fossil fuels, green and clean fossil chemicals are products also are eligible. c. Need commonality to make multiple projects appear to be one like one offtaker or a couple similarly investment grade or near investment grade credit-rated offtakers. d. Senior debt amounts of $4.5 billion available in Renewable Energy (REEE) and $8.5 billion (recently $2 billion obligated to reduce the amount to $6.5 billion) available in Advanced Fossil Energy (AFE) Program DOE extended the rounds through November 30, e. To date, more than $65 billion senior debt applications have been filed in REEE, AFE, Nuclear and ATVM with $41 billion available. f. The Trump Administration is attempting to cut the program in the FY2018 Budget, as adopted substantially by the House and Senate Appropriations Bills, which would cut the 1703 loan guarantee program but not the ATVM loan program. The Senate actually would refine the 1703 program in the Senate Energy Bill. Further, the Congress could restore FY2018 funding like it did with FY2017 appropriations. Congress instead passed a Continuing Resolution to keep FY2018 funding at FY2017 levels through December 8, g. The new broad ranging Senate Energy bill, entitled the Energy & Natural Resources Act of 2017 (Senators Murkowski/Cantwell) (S.1460) (June 29, 2017), would fine tune the Section 1703 Loan Guarantee Program to make it more acceptable to the Congress. 13
15 Debt M. Debt Government Loan Programs (continued) 2. USDA a. Section 9003 of Farm Bill - Integrated Biorefineries (commenced in 2008) $250 million of senior debt per projects. $1 billion available can integrate storage into biopower unit further integrated into a biorefinery. At present, 18 Part 2 invitees are competing for these funds with 5 projects expected to be obligated by September 30, 2017 in conditional commitments. This financing is available for advanced biofuels, green chemicals and biobased products. b. Section 9007 of Farm Bill (commenced in 2008) $25 million of Senior Debt can stack 9007 and B&I together. This financing is available for renewable power, biofuels and biochemicals/bio-based products if the majority of the output is for clean energy. Less than $240 million of $420 million remains available. c. Business & Industry ( B&I ) Program (commenced in 1972) $25 million of Senior Debt can stack B&I and 9007 together. New rule for 1 st time permits Loan Guarantee over (1) Subordinated Debt and (2) Leveraged Loan in a NMTC transaction. This program is agnostic on the type of industry. FY2017 had approximately $1.5 billion available for funding. d. Rural (<50,000 person) site requirement for 9007 and B&I, but not for e. Rural Utility Service ( RUS ) Program For Electricity (commenced in 1935) direct uncapped FFB loans with unlimited available funding at 12.5 basis points over Treasuries (2.248% on 10 year and 2.61% on 20 year Treasuries on July 19, 2017) for shorter of PPA term or 35 years with two models: 100% corporate finance v. 75% project finance. Electricity sale only program with sales into rural areas of 20,000 or less persons by cooperatives, municipalities and qualified utilities. No rural site requirements. f. Energy Efficiency and Conservation Loan Guarantee Program (commenced in 2014) uncapped 15 year direct FFB loans with unlimited available funding for energy storage and energy efficiency projects at Treasury interest rates for projects in less than 20,000 person areas. g. Rural Business Investment Companies ( RBIC ) allows companies to access companies in the USDA s Farm Credit Agency for loans/equity into funds for loans and investments. Current RBICs are $25 million, $100 million and two at $150 million in 4 funds to date use for one s projects. 75% of these investments and loans are made into Rural Business Concerns, or enterprises whose principal office is in areas of less than 50,000 persons. h. The proposed Trump FY2018 Budget, as reflected substantially in the House and Senate Appropriations Bills, would reduce these programs funding significantly. Ultimately, full Congress pushed back and restored these programs funding as in the FY2017 appropriations through a Continuing Resolution through December 8,
16 Debt M. Debt Government Loan Programs (continued) 3. SBA a. Small Business Loans. b. Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Grants. c. Small Business Investment Corporations (SBICs) Preferred Equity. N. Other Project Financing Mechanisms 1. Credit Enhanced Project Company Bonds taking non-investment grade project company debt to investment grade with loan guarantee/insurance wraps basis points over approximately 2.61% (for 20 year) and 2.248% (for 10 year) Treasury rates (as of July 19, 2017) plus a small percentage spread) for the credit enhanced portion of senior debt sell the corporate debt/project company bonds to institutional market. Low cost/long term financing that we invented and obtained our 1 st financial closing 6 years ago. 2. Clean Power Plan Allowance Funding GHG emissions allowances sold to utilities to finance up to 100% of clean energy projects through mass-based state CPP plans once the Supreme Court stay is lifted and current lawsuit is resolved in favor of EPA, if the Trump Administration does not fully rescind these rules but instead modifies them. 3. Green Bonds more than $84 billion exist in 2016, with $150 billion projected for Insurance Policies to wrap technology risk, protect revenue streams, provide floors on offtake agreements; new Allianz Risk Transfer has a 10 year wind revenue hedge with an annual fixed payment to provide revenue certainty. May be provided beyond wind projects. A new technology protection policy is available at 10 years with a reasonable upfront, one-time premium. It would wrap technology risk and credit enhance project loans or bonds. 5. Project Capital Stacks structured to reduce sponsor equity, with funds from EB-5, NMTCs, subordinated debt, state and federal grants, etc. 15
17 Debt N. Other Project Financing Mechanisms (continued) 6. International Debt US Ex-IM, OPIC, TDA other Export Credit Agencies and Multilateral Development Banks. 7. Project Level New 100% Debt Credit Finance Facility no equity required; thus, no company ownership dilution. Requires Investment Grade Credit Rated Product Offtakers and/or Performance Guarantee Providers with these contracts/guarantees equaling the term of the loan. Insurance Products can wrap required minimum % take or pay (i.e., hell or high water ) provisions to pay debt service under the negotiated payment terms. Also, there are no liens on any of the assets. Further, all retainers and closing points are baked into the 6% interest rate for the lender. The lender has done $3.6 billion of these transactions over the past 26 years outside of the energy, chemical and biobased product industries. The funds come from pension funds, insurance and other institutional investors. 8. Parent Company Level New loan fund of $250 million which lends up to $10 million for up to 10 years at a flat 10% interest. The loan is secured by cash flowing contracts. The funds are loaned solely to the parent company and can be used by the parent company as equity at the project level and/or working capital at the parent level. 9. Smaller projects use all equity to close quickly and construct and, after one year of performance, then project finance the facility selling down equity to a 70/30 to 80/20 debt/equity model on better terms with lenders. 10. Use Debt and/or Equity revolvers to build projects, move funds back into the funds by replacing with other funds and put the revolver funds back to use to build the next project, and continue the process. 16
18 Other Financing Mechanisms O. Tax Incentives 1. Renewable Energy Tax Incentives require extension at Federal level. 2. Required Government Action extend the PTC and/or ITC for biofuels small wind, biopower, hydropower and expand 30% ITC for energy storage as part of any Tax Reform Legislation. Establish a federal ITC and/or PTC for biofuels, biochemicals and bio-based products. States must become more aggressive with the development of tax and non-tax incentives. 3. R&D Tax Credit permanently established in December 2015 Tax Extenders portion of Omnibus Appropriations Act. P. ITC For Integrated Solar Storage Q. RFS, LCFS and RPS Certainty R. Conclusion 17
