Project
financing
It is a long-term or short-term financing based on a projected future financial cash flow of a project. The basic indicator is the ability of a project to cover its debt service. Each project should be self-supporting, and all the costs of the operation and possible repairs should be covered only from the project revenues. This financing is specific in that the amount of a loan is not tied to the historic amount of EBITDA, but to the future amount of EBITDA.

- Infrastructure – PPP projects and others
- Energy – photovoltaic power plants, biogas stations, biomass power plants, small hydroelectric power plants, steam-gas cycle, and others
