E.ON has successfully issued two green bond tranches totaling €1.1 billion. The issuance includes a €500 million bond maturing in September 2031 with a 3.0% coupon, and a €600 million bond maturing in September 2035 with a 3.5% coupon.

The offering received strong investor interest, generating a combined orderbook of more than €2.75 billion. Proceeds will be used to finance or refinance Eligible Green Projects under E.ON’s Green Bond Framework, which is fully aligned with the EU Taxonomy.

Barclays, BNP Paribas, ING, and SMBC acted as active bookrunners for the transaction.

E.ON CFO Nadia Jakobi said: ”With the green bond issuance today, we have successfully covered our funding needs for 2025. Around 70 percent of our funding is achieved with green bonds. This underpins our commitment to driving the green transformation of the European energy system through sustainable financing. Given our prefunding in 2024, this year’s volume remains below our usual annual funding level.”
