The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment as events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be fully recoverable. Examples of such triggering events applicable to our assets include a significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset or asset group or a current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or asset group. The Company performs its annual long-lived assets impairment testing in the fourth quarter of each year. In addition to the annual impairment test, the Company regularly assesses whether a triggering event has occurred which would require interim impairment testing. The Company assessed the impact that the current macroeconomic environment surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic has or is expected to have on the business, and concluded that it was not a triggering event for impairment purposes and there was no indication of impairment of long-lived assets for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
The Company capitalizes interest costs relating to construction financing during the period of construction. Capitalized interest is included in energy assets, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Capitalized interest is amortized to cost of revenues in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income on a straight line basis over the useful life of the associated energy asset. The Company capitalized $912 and $790 of interest during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company had $1,774 and $1,578 of interest capitalized for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there are three ESPC asset projects which are included within energy assets, net on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company controls and operates the assets as well as obtains financing during the construction period of the assets. As the Company has an obligation to the customer for performance of the asset, the Company records a liability associated with these energy assets, although, the customer is responsible for payments to the lender based on the energy asset’s production. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the liabilities recognized in association with these assets were $11,125 and $10,243, respectively, of which $221 and $827, respectively, has been classified as the current portion and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.
