The RCF in place as of December 31, 2022 has a maturity date of February 13, 2026. The US$1 billion facility was secured with a selected group of 11 core relationship banks, increasing to 13 banks as per 2022 and has an uncommitted option to increase the RCF by an additional US$500 million. The Company does not have any other extension option remaining.

When needed, the RCF allows the Company to finance EPC activities / working capital, bridge any long-term financing needs, and/or finance general corporate purposes. On December 23, 2021 the RCF was amended by means of an amendment and restatement agreement to reflect a dedicated green funding tranche. By creating this green tranche, US$50 million of the RCF may only be used to fund activities that comply with the Green Loan Principles (primarily activities related to renewable energy projects) and the remaining US$950 million can be used in the following proportions:

  • EPC activities / working capital – 100% of the facility;
  • General Corporate Purposes – up to 50% of the facility;
  • Refinancing project debt – 100% of the facility but limited to a period of 18 months

The pricing of the RCF is currently based on LIBOR, and it includes provisions for the replacement of LIBOR with a compounded reference rate. The margin is adjusted in accordance with the applicable leverage ratio ranging from a minimum level of 0.50% p.a. (0.40% for the green tranche) to a maximum of 1.50% p.a. (1.40% for the green tranche). The margin also includes a Sustainability Adjustment Mechanism whereby the margin may increase or decrease by 0.05% based on the absolute change in the Company performance as measured and reported by Sustainalytics1. The Company’s Sustainability performance in 2022 allows the 0.05% margin decrease to remain applicable for 2023.
