KARLSRUHE (dpa-AFX) - With the help of two new corporate bonds with a total volume of 1.25 billion euros, the energy supplier EnBW wants to invest in sustainability. Exactly which projects the proceeds from the bonds will flow into has not yet been determined, according to information released Tuesday. The focus would be on the expansion of renewable energies, electricity grids, electromobility and the development of a future infrastructure for the generation and supply of hydrogen and so-called green gases.

"We are investing in the infrastructure of our country and this is important for our society as a whole - but also for EnBW - to ensure the successful implementation of the Energiewende and the future viability of Germany as a business location," CFO Thomas Kusterer said, according to the statement.

The bonds reportedly have a volume of 500 million and 750 million euros and a maturity of 5.5 and 12 years, respectively. They carry coupons of 3.5 and 4.0 percent respectively./kre/DP/men
