Green Bonds
A green bond is a fixed income instrument designed specifically to support climate-related or environmental projects. NSTAR Electric's was the first Massachusetts-based utility distribution company to issue a green bond. Offering the green bonds is another way the company has supported energy efficiency efforts and renewable energy development in Massachusetts.
The company also committed to report the key environmental features of those expenditures and to publish an independent accountants’ report on the allocation of the eligible green expenditures.
