Intesa Sanpaolo joins A$1.4bn in green loan facilities for Vena Energy

31 July 2026

Intesa Sanpaolo, through its IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division, has joined a syndicate of banks in providing A$1.4bn in green loan facilities to Vena Energy to support solar and battery energy storage system (BESS) assets across Australia.

The facilities are structured across two transactions, combining greenfield project funding with the refinancing of existing facilities. The solar assets included in the financing are expected to generate enough renewable power to supply the equivalent annual electricity needs of approximately 198,000 Australian households, while avoiding more than one million tonnes of CO2 emissions annually.

Vena Energy is a leading green energy solutions provider across the Asia-Pacific region.

This transaction further reinforces Intesa Sanpaolo's commitment to supporting the energy transition by financing renewable energy infrastructure with a positive environmental impact. Through its IMI Corporate & Investment Banking Division, the Group continues to partner with leading international clients on projects that contribute to sustainable growth and decarbonisation.
