Voltalia has signed a credit facility with twelve French and international top-tier banking partners for a total amount of EUR100 million (US$111.67 million) with an interest rate indexed to Voltalia’s extra-financial performance. Natixis acted as a mandated arranger, sole coordinator, bookrunner and sustainable development coordinator for the operation. EthiFinance agency performed Voltalia’s extra-financial analysis to establish its ESG rating.

This facility includes:

• a EUR55 million (US$61.42 million) credit convention,
• a EUR45 million (US$50.25 million) long-term loan agreement

Both instruments have a maturity of five years, extendable to seven years. This new financing facility establishes Voltalia as an exemplary player in terms of Corporate Social Responsibility (“CSR”) and provides increased financial flexibility for the implementation of its growth strategy, particularly through continued investment in the development of new projects.
