It’s been a big couple of weeks with close to $2.5bn of green bonds issued. Digital Realty Trust came to market with a $500m green bond for low-carbon buildings, and Swedish Export Credit Agency became the first European export credit agency to join the green bond market with a $500m inaugural issuance.
Last month Toyota closed their second green bond for a whopping $1.25bn. Standard auto loans backed the issuance with proceeds to be used for electric and hybrid car loans; that means it’s more like a corporate green bond, where proceeds from a bond backed by existing (non-green) assets are directed green loans still to be made.
Sunrun issued $111m of solar ABS, and a small unlabelled energy efficiency ABS was also issued by Renew Financial and Citi for $12.58m. Sunrun and Citi/Renew Financial are examples of ABS where the assets backing the issuance are green. This type of green ABS introduces new low-carbon assets to the securitisation market, such as solar leases and energy efficiency loans.
