GreenYellow raises more than €800 million
and reaffirms its ambition to be a leader in flexible electrification
GreenYellow, an international decentralized energy platform, announces the completion of a historic financing of more than €800 million, the largest ever raised by the Group.
This strategic transaction refinances GreenYellow’s existing corporate debt and significantly strengthens its investment capacity in order to support a clear ambition: to establish itself as the leader in electrification and flexibility “as a service” for the competitiveness of industrial and commercial companies.
A major financial reinforcement to accelerate the execution of the growth plan
This new financing increases the Group’s resources by 35% to accelerate the deployment of its integrated high value-added offer, support an active strategy of targeted acquisitions and develop new technological building blocks to drive the convergence of its offer platform.
Structured around GreenYellow’s historic group of international lenders, joined by new international banks, this transaction demonstrates the renewed confidence of the financial sector.
A flexible electrification platform driving competitiveness
In the context of increasing volatility in energy prices, GreenYellow is positioning its electrification platform as a strategic shield for the competitiveness and energy independence of industrial and commercial companies.
By combining on-site solar production, energy efficiency, battery storage and dynamic smart flexibility management, GreenYellow enables its clients to control their energy bills, secure their performance and accelerate their decarbonization trajectory.
“This historic financing of €800 million marks a strategic turning point for GreenYellow. It gives us the means to achieve our mission: to free companies from the volatility of energy prices by combining independence and decarbonization. In a market where energy has become the primary driver of industrial competitiveness, we are moving to the next level to ensure our clients have control over their energy bills.” says Otmane Hajji, President of GreenYellow.
“This transaction strengthens our capital structure and liquidity and gives us access to a financial resource at a competitive cost, while providing the visibility needed to execute on our growth plan” adds Stéphane Feldmann, Chief Financial Officer of GreenYellow.
