  TenneT Germany announces the launch of its inaugural €35 billion Debt Issuance Programme (DIP). The programme provides the framework for future debt issuances in the international capital markets and is another milestone in developing a robust financial framework for TenneT Germany.  “The Debt Issuance Programme provides a solid foundation for sustainable and flexible funding that will support our strategic goals. Following the successful launch of our Green Finance Framework, this is another significant step in further establishing TenneT Germany’s presence in the European debt capital markets. By publishing the programme at an early stage, we offer maximum transparency to investors and ensure that we are well prepared for future capital market transactions,” said Dr. Markus Binder, Chief Financial Officer of TenneT Germany.  The DIP enables TenneT Germany to issue senior and hybrid bonds in various currencies and maturities, broadening the company’s financing options and strengthening its access to international investor groups. Deutsche Bank acts as arranger, Linklaters as counsel to TenneT Germany and White & Case as counsel to the arranger and dealer banks. The base prospectus was approved by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) in Luxembourg.  The launch of the programme follows the recent publication of TenneT Germany’s Green Finance Framework and the European Green Bond Factsheet on 11 November 2025 and underscores TenneT Germany’s continued commitment to sustainable financing instruments in line with its strategic objectives.
