Quanta Issues $10 Billion Green Bond to Fund Waste Heat Recovery Tech

Quanta’s $10B green bond funds waste heat recovery tech, expected to generate $18.4B annually. Listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, it marks a major step for climate-focused finance.

Nasdaq Stockholm Listing Targets Sustainable Investors, Promising Strong Profits & Climate Impact


Quanta Global Capital Limited (“Quanta”) has announced a $10 billion green bond issuance, structured into 100,000 Preferred Notes at $100,000 each. With a 7.5% annual coupon and a five-year maturity, the bond will be listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, aligning with the exchange’s growing focus on sustainable finance.


Innovative Waste Heat Recovery Tech at the Core


The bond is backed by AA-rated insurance and Quanta’s Smart Thermoelectric Waste Heat Generator (STWHG), a breakthrough waste heat recovery technology that captures and repurposes excess industrial heat into renewable electricity.

Why It Matters:


  • Waste heat recovery is projected to have a greater impact on global warming reduction than direct GHG emission cuts, according to Environment Systems Research.
  • McKinsey’s sustainability report indicates that waste heat recovery could offset Europe’s natural gas import costs, underscoring its economic significance.


Financial Outlook: Strong Returns from Green Investments


  • Projected annual revenue: $18.4 billion from electricity sales.
  • Additional earnings: Carbon credits, tax incentives, and green energy subsidies expected to boost net profits beyond electricity sales alone.
  • Payback period: Just five years, making it a highly lucrative investment.


Nasdaq Stockholm: A Growing Hub for Green Bonds


Quanta selected Nasdaq Stockholm due to its leadership in sustainable finance. 36% of new bonds listed on Nasdaq’s Nordic and Baltic exchanges in 2024 were sustainable bonds, up from 31% in 2023.


Nasdaq highlighted:


“The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) help investors and issuers measure the impact of green investments while providing context for bond returns.”


A New Era for Climate-Focused Finance?


Quanta’s green bond issuance underscores the growing alignment between financial markets and sustainability, offering investors both strong returns and climate impact. As global regulations tighten around emissions, waste heat recovery solutions could play a pivotal role in the green transition.
