“…Antoniou and Strausz (2016) also showed how feed-in-tariffs and tax incentives could be used to pay for renewable energy projects, while Steffen and Schmidt (2019) favoured multilateral agencies and regional development banks as backers for financing energy projects. Yildiz (2014) and Prislan et al (2017) reported that the institutional investors’ role was increasing in providing support for building sustainable energy infrastructure. Yüksel and Arman (2014) suggested multi-lateral agencies as a financing channel, while Kaygusuz and Sari (2011) favoured the feed-in-tariff mechanism, as did Salvarli and Salvarli (2017), along with tax incentives.…”

“…The political climate is the most important factor for both the development and financing stages of a project. In most countries, the impact of government instability on investments in renewable energy is profound (Kulikova, 2016; Kömürcü and Akpinar, 2010; Prislan, 2017; Green and Yatchew, 2012). Risky political conditions also affect the price of lending in certain countries (Thierie and De Moor, 2018b).…”

“…In renewable energy projects, the equity return rate is generally low (Yildiz, 2014; Prislan, 2017). To make an inversion, the equity ratio of the financial package should be decreased.…”

“…The transaction costs for HEPP projects can be quite high (Yildiz, 2014; Prislan, 2017); however, it still depends on project size–the larger the project, the higher the transaction cost. Lower interest rates can help reduce high transaction costs.…”

“…Financing from institutional investors has both negative and positive aspects. As indicated by Yildiz (2014) and Prislan et al (2017), the financial contributions of institutional investors should be considered as an alternative solution because they have more positive features than commercial banks. Commercial bank loans have the least desirable conditions, except for leverage, for financing HEPP projects.…”

Purpose This study aims to identify project funding shortcomings in the existing literature and evaluate the financing channels accordingly. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses a structured literature review – a content analysis method. Then, the comparative analysis applied to data gathered from the content analysis. Findings To define the main research topics and establish a focus on hydroelectric power plant (HEPP) financing, a comprehensive structured literature review was conducted. According to the results of this study, there are three main categories of HEPP financing studies in the literature, namely, financing channels and products, factors that complicate financing and financing- risk relationship of HEPP projects. According to these findings, which criteria most affecting HEPP financing and which financing channel is the most suitable are determined. Research limitations/implications Among all financing channels, only direct debt sources are selected. Practical implications This study is structured as a simple lender selection guide for HEPP investments. Selection criteria are applicable for both lenders and investors. For lenders, those criteria are expected to improve loan performance and optimize financial product selection. For investors, those criteria are expected to help choosing suitable products and improve revenues. Social implications This study will contribute the researchers those intended to work on the topic. Originality/value This study will contribute to limited literature on HEPP financing. Project finance literature is limited and narrow even there is no study that investigates hydropower project finance sourcing. In this manner, this study can be considered as a pioneer.

This article investigates the return on financial investment of one of the most famous renewable energy sources available in the majority of countries over the world when considering building a micro-grid station of 1MW namely the photovoltaic (PV) system. By bringing together information on the need to invest in a very promising field which is solar, the reasons that can motivate investment or not in the PV sector based on the global energy potential has been analyzed, climate agreements, technological development of the field and practical cases studied. The problem is at present that, there still are some reluctant investors who do not believe in investing in the renewable energy sectors. Society is divided on the environmental impact that most used energies presently have on human life. Whether it is coal, uranium or gas, many companies invest huge amounts of money in these forms of energy to increase their economical level while investment in the renewable energies stagnates. The results obtained from the proposed micro-grid deployed show that an
