EdgeCore完成5.21亿美元绿色融资：以圣克拉拉SV01数据中心为支持资产，可融资容量升至62兆瓦
数据中心开发商EdgeCore Digital Infrastructure于10月28日宣布，完成一笔5.21亿美元的资产支持证券化（ABS）融资，所得资金将用于偿还建设贷款并支持后续绿色数据中心开发。这笔交易以该公司位于加利福尼亚州圣克拉拉县圣克拉拉市、已完全稳定运营的SV01数据中心为支持资产，该设施的信息技术容量为36兆瓦。
这是EdgeCore的第二笔ABS交易。连同2025年完成的首笔交易，该公司可通过证券化融资的数据中心信息技术容量合计达到62兆瓦，较此前翻了一倍有余。SV01所在园区的两栋建筑已全部租给同一家高投资评级的大型云服务商。
本次发行按EdgeCore的绿色融资框架定为绿色债券，符合国际资本市场协会（ICMA）的《绿色债券原则》。公司财务执行副总裁朱莉·布鲁尔（Julie Brewer）表示，在供电交付、供应链与资本部署普遍出现延迟的行业环境下，这笔交易显示EdgeCore能够确定地交付数据中心容量。
交易安排方面，三菱日联金融集团（MUFG）担任唯一结构顾问，荷兰国际集团（ING）与MUFG担任联席主承销商，First Citizens Capital Securities与Huntington Capital Markets担任联席管理人，King & Spalding律师事务所为公司方顾问，Milbank律师事务所为承销商顾问。
EdgeCore总部位于科罗拉多州Denver，在北美六个市场建有数据中心园区，2022年底被瑞士投资机构Partners Group收购。圣克拉拉是硅谷数据中心最集中的城市之一，电力供应与土地资源是当地数据中心扩张的主要约束。
EdgeCore Closes $521 Million Green Financing Backed by Its Santa Clara SV01 Data Center, Lifting Financable Capacity to 62 MW
Data center developer EdgeCore Digital Infrastructure announced on October 28 that it has closed a $521 million asset-backed securities (ABS) financing, with proceeds to refinance a construction loan and support future green data center development. The deal is backed by the company's SV01 data center in Santa Clara, Santa Clara County, California, a fully stabilized facility with 36 megawatts of IT capacity.
It is EdgeCore's second ABS transaction. Together with its inaugural deal in 2025, the company's securitized financable IT capacity now totals 62 megawatts, more than double the previous level. Both buildings at the SV01 campus are fully leased to a single high-investment-grade hyperscale tenant.
The issuance is designated as a green bond under EdgeCore's Green Financing Framework, in alignment with the International Capital Market Association's Green Bond Principles. Julie Brewer, the company's executive vice president of finance, said that in an industry environment marked by delays in power delivery, supply chains and capital deployment, the transaction shows EdgeCore can deliver data center capacity with certainty.
MUFG served as sole structuring advisor on the deal, with ING and MUFG as joint bookrunners and First Citizens Capital Securities and Huntington Capital Markets as co-managers. King & Spalding acted as company counsel and Milbank as counsel to the underwriters.
Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, EdgeCore operates data center campuses in six North American markets and was acquired by Swiss investment firm Partners Group in late 2022. Santa Clara is one of Silicon Valley's most concentrated data center markets, where power supply and land are the main constraints on further expansion.
