Unlocking Article 6 finance for battery energy storage: Carbon market pathways, bankability, and the future of grid-scale storage investment
Climate Week NYC 2026Monday, September 21, 2026
12:00pm – 2:30pm ET
Virtual and in-person attendance options available.
Battery energy storage is a key consideration within the clean energy transition, but many projects, particularly in emerging markets, cannot reach bankability on existing revenue streams alone.
Article 6 of the Paris Agreement offers a potential solution: new carbon-market pathways that could provide additional revenue visibility for developers, lenders, and investors. The challenge is designing structures that satisfy additionality, measurement, and risk-allocation standards across jurisdictions.
Join DLA Piper during Climate Week NYC for an interactive working session, bringing together developers, financiers, carbon-market professionals, corporate buyers, and policymakers to explore pathways for channeling Article 6 finance into battery energy storage system (BESS) projects.
Drawing on DLA Piper’s global BESS report, Capital Unlocks Capacity, the session will examine market trends and practical transaction structures – exploring how project-level crediting, blended finance, and advance-purchase commitments can meet additionality standards and deliver bankable carbon revenues.
