Investor Update and Results for 2Q 2016 February 22, 2017 Exhibit 99.1


 
2 This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, assumptions, known and unknown risks, and uncertainties and typically include words or variations of words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “goal,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “objective,” “forecast,” “target,” “potential,” “continue,” “would,” “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may” or other comparable terms and phrases. All statements that address operating performance, events, or developments that TerraForm Power expects or anticipates will occur in the future are forward-looking statements. They may include estimates of expected adjusted EBITDA, cash available for distribution (CAFD), earnings, revenues, adjusted revenues, capital expenditures, liquidity, capital structure, future growth, and other financial performance items (including future dividends per share), descriptions of management’s plans or objectives for future operations, products, or services, or descriptions of assumptions underlying any of the above. Forward-looking statements provide TerraForm Power’s current expectations or predictions of future conditions, events, or results and speak only as of the date they are made. Although TerraForm Power believes its expectations and assumptions are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these expectations and assumptions will prove to have been correct and actual results may vary materially. By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, risks related to the SunEdison Bankruptcy, including our transition away from reliance on SunEdison for management, corporate and accounting services, employees, critical systems and information technology infrastructure, and the operation, maintenance and asset management of our renewable energy facilities; risks related to events of default and potential events of default arising under our revolving credit facility, the indentures governing our senior notes, and/or project-level financing; risks related to failure to satisfy the requirements of Nasdaq, which could result in the delisting of our common stock; risks related to our exploration and potential execution of strategic alternatives; pending and future litigation; our ability to integrate the projects we acquire from third parties or otherwise realize the anticipated benefits from such acquisitions; the willingness and ability of counterparties to fulfill their obligations under offtake agreements; price fluctuations, termination provisions and buyout provisions in offtake agreements; our ability to successfully identify, evaluate, and consummate acquisitions; government regulation, including compliance with regulatory and permit requirements and changes in market rules, rates, tariffs, environmental laws and policies affecting renewable energy; operating and financial restrictions under agreements governing indebtedness; the condition of the debt and equity capital markets and our ability to borrow additional funds and access capital markets, as well as our substantial indebtedness and the possibility that we may incur additional indebtedness going forward; our ability to compete against traditional and renewable energy companies; potential conflicts of interests or distraction due to the fact that several of our directors and most of our executive officers are also directors and executive officers of TerraForm Global, Inc.; and hazards customary to the power production industry and power generation operations, such as unusual weather conditions and outages. Furthermore, any dividends are subject to available capital, market conditions, and compliance with associated laws and regulations. Many of these factors are beyond TerraForm Power’s control. TerraForm Power disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions, factors, or expectations, new information, data, or methods, future events, or other changes, except as required by law. The foregoing list of factors that might cause results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements should be considered in connection with information regarding risks and uncertainties which are described in TerraForm Power’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2016, as well as additional factors it may describe from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and, consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

5 Results for 2Q 2016 and Estimates for 2016 Agenda 1 2 High-Quality, Diversified Renewable Power Fleet 3 Update on the Strategic Review Process Exhibit 99.1


 
Strategic Review: Overview  Company launched strategic review in May 2016 at the direction of the Company’s Conflicts Committee  The Conflicts Committee has provided oversight for (i) management’s preparation and execution of the stand-alone plan and (ii) the negotiation of guidelines by which each of SunEdison and the Company conduct themselves during a joint marketing process for a potential sale of the Company – Joint marketing process was viewed as a value maximizing alternative  Conflicts Committee’s mandate is to be guided solely by careful consideration of the best interests of all of the Company's shareholders  Aim to maintain arms-length relationship with SunEdison in TerraForm Power’s decision-making  Company’s outside advisors include financial advisors Morgan Stanley, Centerview Partners, and AlixPartners, and legal counsel Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, Greenberg Traurig, and Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP 6 Exhibit 99.1


 
Strategic Review: Supervised by Independent Conflicts Committee  5 independent directors added over the past year  Board now composed of 9 directors – 8 of which are independent, and 5 of which are independent of both SunEdison and TerraForm Global  All decisions with respect to any strategic transaction, including whether to approve any transaction, will be made only following a determination that it is in the best interest of all the Company’s shareholders and with the consent of a majority of the independent directors TERP Board of Directors Independent Director Corporate Governance & Conflicts Committee GLBL Director 1) Edward "Ned" Hall Y Chair 2) Kerri L. Fox Y Y 3) David Pauker Y Y 4) Marc S. Rosenberg Y Y 5) Christian Fong Y 6) Christopher Compton Y Y 7) Hanif Dahya Y Y 8) Jack Stark Y Y 9) Peter Blackmore (Chairman) Y 7 Exhibit 99.1


 
Strategic Review: Evaluation of Stand-Alone Plan  From May to August 2016, the Company’s management team developed a business plan for the Company to operate independently of SunEdison  The Company’s Conflicts Committee and Board of Directors reviewed in detail the Company’s business plan under various scenarios, including the attendant execution risks  The business planning process addressed multiple areas, including: – Business model ‒ Growth prospects ‒ Dividend targets – Organization design ‒ Investment strategy ‒ Capital structure – Competitive position ‒ Project operations ‒ Corporate costs  The Company's financial advisors evaluated the strategic and financial implications of the Company’s plan to operate on a stand-alone basis (without a Yieldco sponsor), and its resulting competitive position in the global market for renewable energy assets  After completion of this comprehensive review, the Conflicts Committee recommended and the Board of Directors authorized the exploration of strategic alternatives, including a potential sale of the Company and new sponsorship arrangements 8 Exhibit 99.1


 
Strategic Review: Exploration of Strategic Alternatives  Strategic alternatives process announced September 19, 2016 – The Company also announced on that date that it was prepared to enter into discussions to settle all intercompany claims with SunEdison on a schedule that was consistent with the strategic alternatives process – Settlement of claims necessary for any party to transact with the Company  Process overview – Over the past several months, we have conducted a two-step auction process in connection with a whole company or sponsorship transaction – We contacted a broad range of strategic and financial parties to gauge their interest – Bids were due in the beginning of January – Following our evaluation of the bids submitted, we decided to enter into exclusivity with Brookfield 9 Exhibit 99.1


 
Strategic Review: Joint Process with SunEdison  SunEdison was involved in the marketing process due to: – SunEdison’s voting power – The need for the SunEdison bankruptcy court’s approval for any SunEdison decision regarding a sale – The Conflict Committee’s belief that a coordinated process would yield a superior outcome  All Company interaction with SunEdison has been, and continues to be, at arm’s length  SunEdison’s insolvency had been assessed and considered by the Conflicts Committee in weighing the various bidder proposals and stand-alone alternatives, but all decisions are being made based on what is in the best interest of all the Company’s shareholders 10 Exhibit 99.1


 
Strategic Review: Exclusivity with Brookfield  The Company entered into exclusive discussions with Brookfield on January 20, 2017  The Conflicts Committee recommended and the full Board authorized exclusivity after determining that doing so was in the best interest of all Company shareholders  Entry into the Settlement MOU with SunEdison was also authorized based upon the same determinations  The exclusivity period has been extended to March 6, 2017  The Company has not committed to enter into a transaction with Brookfield or any other potential buyer  If the Company does not execute an M&A transaction with Brookfield and accompanying settlement with SunEdison, the Company is prepared to operate on a stand-alone basis while considering other strategic alternatives 11 Exhibit 99.1


 
Settlement Agreement with SunEdison  Negotiations ongoing since MOU entered into on January 20, 2017  Deadline to enter into final agreement currently extended to February 24, and we expect to enter into enter into final agreement soon  The Settlement Agreement is subject to SunEdison bankruptcy court approval  Before entering into the MOU, the Conflicts Committee conducted a review and analysis of the Company’s claims against SunEdison, as well as SunEdison’s claims against the Company, with the advice of its independent legal counsel and the Company’s restructuring and financial advisors  Under the MOU, the split would be 36.9% to SunEdison / 63.1% to Class A – SunEdison would receive 36.9% of consideration paid to all shareholders – Remaining 63.1% distributed to Class A shareholders – This split reflects the settlement of intercompany claims, IDRs, and other factors  Settlement is subject to agreement with SunEdison on a jointly-approved M&A transaction, whether with Brookfield or another bidder 12 Exhibit 99.1

These assumptions and estimates may not prove to be correct and actual results could differ materially due to various factors, many of which are not within the control of the Company. In addition, estimated results should not be viewed as indicative of the Company’s expectations for future periods. Please see “Importance of our Risk Factors” and “Forward- Looking Statements”. 2.

Commentary on 2017  No update on 2017 estimates, as we are in exclusivity with Brookfield, and the outcome of that process is expected to impact company actions and financial results for 2017  Management continues to evaluate options for 2017 to optimize the portfolio and capital structure  Our previously published estimate for the 2017 CAFD range of $120M- $160M incorporated several planned actions including: – UK portfolio sale – Upsize of Canada project financing – Paydown or refinancing of various corporate or project-level credit facilities – Opportunistic divestiture or acquisition opportunities  We expect to provide updated 2017 estimates once the strategic alternatives process is concluded 20 Exhibit 99.1


 
Appendix 21 Exhibit 99.1


 
22 Definitions: Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Cash Available For Distribution (CAFD) Reconciliation of Operating Revenues, Net to Adjusted Revenue We define adjusted revenue as operating revenues, net, adjusted for non-cash items including unrealized gain/loss on derivatives, amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts, net and other non-cash revenue items. We believe adjusted revenue is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted revenue is a non-GAAP measure used by our management for internal planning purposes, including for certain aspects of our consolidated operating budget. Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus depreciation, accretion and amortization, non-cash affiliate general and administrative costs, acquisition related expenses, interest expense, gains (losses) on interest rate swaps, foreign currency gains (losses), income tax (benefit) expense and stock compensation expense, and certain other non-cash charges, unusual or non-recurring items and other items that we believe are not representative of our core business or future operating performance. Our definitions and calculations of these items may not necessarily be the same as those used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Note: As of December 31, 2015, TerraForm Power changed its policy regarding restricted cash to characterize the following as restricted cash: (i) cash on deposit in collateral accounts, debt service reserve accounts, maintenance and other reserve accounts, and (ii) cash on deposit in operating accounts but subject to distribution restrictions due to debt defaults, or other causes. Previously, cash available for operating purposes, but subject to compliance procedures and lender approvals prior to distribution from project level accounts, was also considered restricted. This cash is now considered unrestricted but is designated as unavailable for immediate corporate purposes. The impact of the new accounting policy on full year reported or forecasted CAFD is immaterial. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to CAFD Effective December 31, 2015, we define “cash available for distribution” or “CAFD” as adjusted EBITDA of Terra LLC as adjusted for certain cash flow items that we associate with our operations. Cash available for distribution represents adjusted EBITDA (i) minus deposits into (or plus withdrawals from) restricted cash accounts required by project financing arrangements to the extent they decrease (or increase) cash provided by operating activities, (ii) minus cash distributions paid to non-controlling interests in our renewable energy facilities, if any, (iii) minus scheduled project-level and other debt service payments and repayments in accordance with the related borrowing arrangements, to the extent they are paid from operating cash flows during a period, (iv) minus non-expansionary capital expenditures, if any, to the extent they are paid from operating cash flows during a period, (v) plus or minus operating items as necessary to present the cash flows we deem representative of our core business operations, with the approval of the audit committee. Note: CAFD is not a measure of liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

G a) Represents the change in the fair value of commodity contracts not designated as hedges. b) Represents net amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts included within operating revenues, net. c) Primarily represents deferred revenue recognized related to the upfront sale of investment tax credits to non-controlling interest members. d) Includes amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts, recorded within operating revenues, of $5.4 million and $9.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2016, respectively, and $41.8 million for the twelve month estimate ending December 31, 2016. e) Pursuant to the management services agreement, SunEdison agreed to provide or arrange for other service providers to provide management and administrative services to us. For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, cash considerations of $1.3M were paid to SunEdison for these services, and the amount of general and administrative expense – affiliate in excess of the fees paid to SunEdison in each period is treated as an addback in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. In addition, non-operating items and other items incurred directly by TerraForm Power that we do not consider indicative of our core business operations will be treated as an addback in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. The Company’s normal general administrative expenses, not paid by SunEdison, are not added back in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and twelve month estimate ending December 31, 2016, Terraform Power made payments, or will make payments, of $5.7 million and $14 million, respectively, directly to suppliers for normal operating general and administrative expenses. f) Represents stock-based compensation expense recorded within general and administrative expenses and within general and administrative expenses – affiliate. g) Represents transaction related costs, including affiliate acquisition costs, associated with acquisitions. h) Represents the unrealized change in the fair value of commodity contracts not designated as hedges. i) We recognized a net gain of $11.4M on extinguishment of debt related to the Duke operating portfolio in the quarter ended June 30, 2015. j) Represents net losses and (gains) on foreign currency exchange, primarily due to unrealized gains/losses on the re-measurement of intercompany loans which are primarily denominated in British pounds. k) As a result of the SunEdison Bankruptcy, we recorded a bad debt reserve during the six months ended June 30, 2016 related to outstanding receivables from debtors in the SunEdison bankruptcy. l) Primarily represents deferred revenue recognized related to the upfront sale of investment tax credits to non-controlling interest members. m) Represents certain other non-cash charges or non-operating items that we believe are not representative of our core business or future operating performance. n) We received an equity contribution from SunEdison of $6.6 million in August 2015, of which $3.3 million was attributed to the three months ended June 30, 2015, and $8.0 million in February 2016 pursuant to the Amended Interest Payment Agreement. No contributions were received pursuant to this agreement during the three months ended June 30, 2016. o) Represents economic ownership of certain acquired operating assets which accrued to us prior to the acquisition close date. The amount recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2015 are related to the acquisitions of Northern Lights of $3.7 million, and Integrys and Moose Power of $2.7 million. All three acquisitions closed during the three month period ended June 30, 2015. p) Represents the accumulation of restricted cash as of June 30, 2016 due to the impact of SunEdison bankruptcy-triggered or related defaults.
