GreenYellow, a France-based energy platform providing solar, battery storage, and energy efficiency solutions, has secured over €800 million (~$938 million) to refinance its existing corporate debt and support future growth.

The transaction was supported by a consortium of international lenders, including Allianz Global Investors, Banco Santander, BNP Paribas, BPifrance, Crédit Agricole CIB, BPCE Energeco, La Banque Postale, MUFG, Rabobank, SMBC, and Société Générale. Santander Corporate and Investment Banking acted as exclusive financial advisor, mandated lead arranger, bookrunner, and agent.

The company provides on-site solar generation, energy efficiency upgrades, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and smart energy management solutions. Its platform enables customers to optimize energy consumption.

“This historic financing of €800 million (~$938 million) marks a strategic turning point for GreenYellow. It gives us the means to achieve our mission: to free companies from the volatility of energy prices by combining independence and decarbonization. In a market where energy has become the primary driver of industrial competitiveness, we are moving to the next level to ensure our clients have control over their energy bills,” said Otmane Hajji, President at GreenYellow.

The financing is expected to increase the company’s resources by approximately 35%, enabling it to accelerate deployment and pursue targeted acquisitions.

“This transaction strengthens our capital structure and liquidity and gives us access to a financial resource at a competitive cost, while providing the visibility needed to execute on our growth plan,” added Stéphane Feldmann, Chief Financial Officer of GreenYellow.

In 2023, the company secured €31 million (~$33.25 million) financing with Caisse d’Epargne CEPAC, acting as Mandated Arranger, and Natixis, acting as Cover Bank, for the construction of 55 solar power plants totaling 32 MW in mainland France and the French overseas territories.

Announced debt financing in the solar sector came to $16.1 billion in 2025, 14% lower compared to $18.8 billion in 2024, according to Mercom’s Annual and Q4 2025 Solar Funding and M&A report.
