Project Description

The proposed investment is an IFC’s own account subscription of up to EUR 30 million into a new EUR denominated tranche of a 5-year green bonds to be issued by R Power S.A in Poland as part of the established 1 billion PLN (ca. EUR 235 million) Green Bond Programme (“Project”). An additional subscription of up to EUR 20 million from a third-party co-investor is anticipated.

The green bond’s proceeds are expected to be used to fund the construction of three Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) projects in Poland with a combined capacity of approximately 650 MW, making it one of the largest BESS portfolios in the country.

Associated Advisory Engagement

The investment will include a complimentary advisory engagement to conduct a gender diagnostic, including establishing a baseline and action plan for R Power to enhance its gender strategy. This involves identifying policies, procedures, and practices to boost female recruitment and retention, support gender-inclusive supply chains, and improve gender inclusion in community engagement.
