TRATON GROUP has launched Green Finance Framework to finance and refinance battery-electric commercial vehicles. The new tool “enables capital providers to shift forward TRATON’s investments into battery-electric mobility through a broad range of green financing instruments, including Green Bonds, Loans, Schuldscheine, and Asset-Backed Securities”.

TRATON’s financial tools

The Framework is compliant with the latest international standards and ensures that proceeds are exclusively allocated to BEV-related eligible green projects. Thus, within the green project category of “Clean Transportation” defined by the International Capital Market Association (ICMA), TRATON defined the following four sub-categories: Research & Development, Manufacturing, Financial Services as well as Charging Infrastructure for battery-electric commercial vehicles.

“TRATON is committed to driving the transformation of commercial transport through sustainable innovation. With our Green Finance Framework, we align our financing strategy with global climate goals and offer investors a transparent, forward-looking platform to support the transition to battery-electric mobility,” said Christian Levin, CEO of the TRATON GROUP.
