Rhea-AI Filing Summary

HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital is raising new long-term debt through two green bond offerings totaling $1.0 billion. The company agreed to issue $600 million of 7.125% Green Junior Subordinated Notes due 2056 at 100% of principal, guaranteed on a subordinated basis by several affiliates. It also agreed to issue $400 million of 6.000% Green Senior Unsecured Notes due 2036 at 99.810% of principal, with the same guarantors.

The planned closings are expected on February 27, 2026 for the junior subordinated notes and March 2, 2026 for the senior unsecured notes, subject to customary conditions. The company plans to use net proceeds to repay borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility and commercial paper programs or to redeem some or all of its 8.00% Senior Notes due 2027. Cash equal to the net proceeds will be allocated over time to new or existing eligible green projects, with any unallocated amounts held in interest-bearing accounts or short-term, interest-bearing securities.

Insights

$1B of new green notes refinance costlier debt and fund projects.

HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital is issuing $600 million of 7.125% junior subordinated notes due 2056 and $400 million of 6.000% senior unsecured notes due 2036. Both are guaranteed by key subsidiaries and sold near par, indicating straightforward conventional terms.

Net proceeds are earmarked to repay unsecured revolving credit borrowings, reduce commercial paper, or redeem 8.00% senior notes due 2027. This shifts some shorter-term and higher-coupon funding into longer-dated instruments while maintaining unsecured access. Actual leverage and interest-cost effects will depend on the mix of revolver repayment versus note redemption disclosed in future filings.

Cash equal to the net proceeds is designated for eligible green projects with disbursements spanning twelve months before and up to two years after each issue date. Until fully deployed, remaining proceeds will sit in interest-bearing accounts or short-term securities, so near-term earnings impact will reflect the interest rate spread between these holdings and the new coupon obligations.
