Canada NewsWire

LONGUEUIL, QC, Oct. 31, 2017 /CNW Telbec/ - Innergex Renewable Energy Inc. (TSX: INE) ("Innergex" or the "Corporation") announces today that its revolving credit facilities, led by TD Securities and BMO Capital Markets, were increased by $50 million. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Canada Branch was added to the syndicate of lenders which includes Toronto-Dominion Bank, Bank of Montreal, National Bank of Canada, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Fédération des caisses Desjardins du Québec and the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Canada Branch. The Corporation also extended the maturity of its revolving facilities from December 2021 to December 2022 to provide greater financing flexibility.
