Vattenfall issues EUR 500 million green bond

Vattenfall has issued a senior unsecured green bond, giving investors the opportunity to support the transformation of the energy system and the company's vision of a fossil-free future. The proceeds from the bond issue are earmarked for projects defined in Vattenfall's green bond framework, with four categories: renewable energy and related infrastructure, energy efficiency, electrification of transport and heat, and industrial projects.
