Green Bond Framework

Overview

At HASI, we are committed to ensuring all debt we issue is dedicated to eligible green projects. Typically, for corporate unsecured debt, we pursue independent verification. Since 2013, we have raised approximately $12.7 billion of green debt (including $6.2 billion off-balance sheet securitizations), spanning corporate and non-recourse issuances to securitizations.

The HASI Green Bond Framework sets out the guidelines for our green financing issuances in accordance with the Green Bond Principles (2021) and Green Loan Principles (2023) to inform our best-efforts alignment to the EU Taxonomy. We have obtained a Second-Party Opinion on our Green Bond Framework to ensure alignment with the 2021 Green Bond and Green Loan Principles, receiving the highest tier Alignment Assessment of Dark Green.
