UK Raises $8.4 Billion in First Green Bond Offering to Include Nuclear Energy as Eligible Use of Proceeds
The UK government announced the completion of its latest “Green Gilt” offering, raising £6.25 billion (USD$8.4 billion) to help finance expenditures for projects to tackle climate change and other environmental challenges, including funding for infrastructure and the creation of green jobs.
The most significant change introduced under the updated framework was the introduction of nuclear energy-related expenditures to the list of eligible categories for allocation of green bond proceeds, adding to existing categories which include clean transportation, renewable energy, energy efficiency, pollution prevention and control, living and natural resources, and climate change adaptation.
