Spanish term or phrase: concesiones de peajes a la sombra
En otro caso, los activos concesionales en los que la autoridad concedente paga directamente al operador (por ejemplo, ***concesiones de peajes a la sombra***), deberían reconocerse como un activo financiero y los intereses correspondientes a la financiación de la construcción como ingresos financieros.

I have heard of shadow pricing, but I'm not sure about this concept , especially with 'peajes', is this road network tolls? I haven't got more context as the author is referring to a document I haven't seen:-(

concessions of shadow tolls (or) shadow toll roads


Explanation:
For example, the M-45 is a "peaje en la sombra"

Shadow tolls are payments made by government to the private sector operator of a road based, at least in part, on the number of vehicles using the road. First proposed in the UK by the Conservative government in 1993, they are currently in operation on some roads in the UK. The system of shadow tolling provides the revenue for privately-funded road schemes under the PFI known as the Design, Build, Finance and Operate (DBFO) programme. They have also been adopted in other countries.
