Green financing in European Energy

Our Green Finance Framework

100% of bond proceeds used for renewable energy

Green Finance Framework

This Green Finance Framework is aligned with the Green Bond Principles published by the International Capital Markets Association (ICMA) in 2022 and the Green Loan Principles published by the Loan Market Association (LMA) in 2022. This update allows European Energy to broaden the types of Green Instruments to not only include Green Bonds but also Green Loans and other types of debt instruments, which are used to finance, or re-finance.

Capital structure in European Energy

A two-layered capital structure

The Group operates a two-layered capital structure. The parent company constitutes the top-layer of the capital structure, which includes funding that is unsecured and structurally subordinated to project-level financing at the bottom. The latter is predominantly secured bank financing of renewable energy projects either under construction or in operation. The Group’s financial policy is defined by a set of financial maintenance covenants included in the terms and conditions of the senior unsecured bonds issued by the parent company. These are:

1. A minimum parent company equity to total assets (excl. cash) of 25%
2. A maximum group project financing to group project assets (PPE and Inventories) of 75%

Debt funding of the parent company is based entirely through Nasdaq Copenhagen listed bonds with “Nordic”-style documentation and issued under the company’s green financing framework.
