The company's strategy to accelerate the development of its under-construction asset portfolio in tandem with the energy transition will be strengthened by the expanded pool of liquidity, according to the statement.

Standard Chartered Bank served as Mandated Lead Arranger, Bookrunner (MLAB), Documentation Bank, and E and S Co-Ordinator bank, according to the company. MLABs MUFG Bank and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation acted as Co-Technical Advisors and Co-Green Loan Advisors, respectively. Furthermore, the Facility's MLABs were BNP Paribas, Codperatieve Rabobank, Intesa Sanpaolo, and Societe Generale.

The borrower's counsel included Latham & Watkins LLP and Saraf & Partners, among others. Linklaters and Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas represented the lenders.
