Green loan

Green Loan is a type of financing that enables farmers to use the proceeds for projects contributing to the environment. For investors, Green Loans give an opportunity to indirectly contribute to the generation of high-quality soil carbon credits, which are later sold on the Voluntary Carbon Market, and receive part of the proceeds from their sale.

About the farm

In 2005 project owner started her farm in Biržai district. She was influenced by her husband with whom she has been farming before. Together they grow beans, wheat and barley in farmer's declared farmland of 219,68 hectares of which she owns 143 ha.

Farmer's machinery fleet consists of a harvester, a seeder, a cultivator, trailers and some smaller pieces of equipment. Together with her husband project owner hires 3 employees that works on the farm.

Farmer has plans to grow cattle in the future. The crops she grows are sold to UAB Agrorodeo, UAB Skandagra, UAB Agrochema, UAB Biržų bekonas."   
                       

Main Terms

The principal will be repaid by the farmer in regular instalments over the span of 4 years in accordance with the repayment schedule.
90 hectares of land are included in the Green Loan program. It is estimated that a total of 830 carbon certificates will be generated in 5 years (based on a conservative estimation). Consequently, investors will receive a portion of sales proceeds from every carbon certificate generated throughout the span of 5 years as the following terms;
  • 60% of income share during the loan period
  • 40% of income share for the following year after the loan period
It is expected that the first carbon certificates will be generated and sold in the fourth quarter of 2024. The exact return will depend on the amount of sequestered CO2 levels and the sale price of the carbon certificates.
If the farm withdraws from the Green Loan without a period of at least 5 years has elapsed, it undertakes to reimburse 11% annual interest.
CO2 emissions to be removed from the atmosphere because of this loan are equal to 2,1 million kilometres driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle.

Annualized return forecast

  • Conservative scenario (€20 per carbon certificate): 17.1% IRR*
  • Today's scenario (€35 per carbon certificate): 29.3% IRR*
  • Optimistic scenario (€100 per carbon certificate): 80.7% IRR*
