Amprion, one of the four transmission system operators for electricity in Germany, made its debut in the international corporate bond market in September 2021 with an €800m benchmark issue, as part of its strategy to invest approximately €24bn in transforming the energy system over the next decade. In September 2022, Amprion returned to the international capital markets with its first green bond to raise a further €1.8bn.
Chief financial officer Peter Rüth describes Amprion as an essential company at the core of the energy transition in Europe. In Germany, the coalition government has brought forward the target for the country to be climate neutral by five years to 2045.
