ViZn Energy Systems, a leading provider of energy storage systems for commercial & industrial, microgrid and utility applications, and LFC Capital, Inc., an equipment leasing and financial services company with more than $1.5 billion of experience, has teamed up to make property owners' acquisition of solar PV and energy storage affordable. The availability of as much as $5 million per project is expected to accelerate the deployment of ViZn's Z20 Energy Storage System, a zinc/iron redox flow battery. LFC Capital's program uses a traditional operating lease with attractive ownership options after six and seven years, plus tax efficiency to provide companies with a low-cost path to ownership. LFC also encourages the use of a follow-on loan as a way to conserve cash and maintain low monthly payments throughout an extended investment period.
The ideal project size is a 50 kW to 1,000 kW solar PV installation requiring 80 kWh to 500 kWh of energy storage. LFC's program, available to qualified companies in all 50 states, appeals to companies that cannot directly benefit from a federal tax credit, or simply want energy savings and off-balance sheet accounting without a long-term commitment to a power purchase agreement.
David Mintzer, ViZn's Vice President of Business Development, said, "We're excited to partner with LFC Capital. LFC's program will make the combination of our energy storage system with solar PV affordable to a wider group of commercial and industrial property owners installing microgrids and give ViZn a greater presence in this important market."
