DBS grants $92m green loan for wind turbine farm project in China

The project will generate renewable energy to power 90,000 households.

DBS has granted a S$92m (RMB500m) green loan facility to Envision Energy to develop a 100-megawatt wind turbine farm in Henan, China.

The project is expected to generate about 270 gigawatt hours of renewable energy, enough to power 90,000 households. It will also avoid 212,600 tonnes of carbon emissions annually, the Singapore-headquartered bank said in a press release.

The loan will be issued under the People's Bank of China’s (PBOC) Carbon Emission Reduction Facility. 

This represents the first successful transaction in this programme by a Southeast Asian bank, DBS said.

DBS China served as the sole green finance advisor for the loan, which complies with the China-EU Common Ground Taxonomy.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
