Green Bond Fact Sheet

A Green Bond Fact Sheet for a EUR 50 million senior secured bond issued by Småkraft AS on November 2, 2018, to finance small-scale hydropower plants in Norway.

• Småkraft AS issued a senior secured green bond on November 2, 2018, with a total amount of EUR 50 million (USD 5.9 million) and a maturity date of November 2, 2023. The bond is intended to finance small-scale hydropower plants in Norway and is secured by 11 hydropower plants that produce approximately 160 GWh annually.
• Småkraft AS is the largest owner and operator of small hydropower plants, managing 105 plants with an annual production exceeding 1.0 TWh. The company's asset portfolio is diversified and located throughout Norway.
• The issuer notes that the 100g of CO2/kWh ceiling for inclusion in the green bond database is very high for Norwegian hydropower. This is attributed to the location of plants in mountainous regions at high altitudes with sparse vegetation, resulting in minimal biomaterial that could cause emissions.
