terms that are accretive to our shareholders and our ability to implement our permanent funding plan, risks related to the integration of Saeta and realization of the benefits of the
transaction, risks related to the number of the shares of Saeta that are tendered, including the risk that we are unable to acquire all of the shares of Saeta and are subject to minority
shareholder protection rights, the risk that any announcement of the transaction could have on an adverse impact on the market price of our common stock, risks related to entering
new international jurisdictions, including related to our increased exposure to foreign currency fluctuation and risks and costs associated with the hedging of the Euro, risks related to
Brookfield sponsorship, including our ability to realize the expected benefits of the transaction with Brookfield, risks related to wind conditions at our wind assets or to eather

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, cash trapped at the project level, including the risk that such project-level cash
may not be released up to us in a timely manner, risks related to the proposed relocation of our headquarters, our ability to compete against traditional and renewable energy
companies, and hazards customary to the power production industry and power generation operations, such as unusual weather conditions and outages.

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, 2016 including the risk factors identified therein, 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. The information presented in this presentation does not represent a complete picture of the financial position, results of
operation or cash flows of TerraForm Power, is not a replacement for full financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, this presentation contains
projections of TerraForm Power’s CAFD and proforma CAFD figures giving effect to the Saeta transaction, which are not measures under generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States. TerraForm Power believes these measures are useful to investors but the use of these measures is subject to inherent limitations and these measures should not
be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for the applicable U.S. GAAP measure.

1. Capital structure changes include reduction of the drawn revolver balance, repayment/refinancing non-recourse term loan, and high yield note refinancing
2. CFOA represents consolidated net cash from operating assets, excluding non-recurring items such as acquisitions, upfinancings, and any dividends paid
3. Guidance CFOA is €77-81M; analysis assumes an exchange rate of 1.24 USD/EUR
4. Saeta’s guidance excludes the full-year impact of the Uruguay and Portugal acquisitions, and the €199M refinancing of Manchasol 2, which resulted in a decrease in the asset’s cost of debt.
Based on Saeta management guidance in the 9M 2017 results presentation, adjusting for the full-year impact of these items results in a $6.7M (€5.4M) increase to CFOA
5. CAFD impact includes only incremental full-year interest expense assuming a 4.75% interest rate
6. Assumes a ~4% full-year average interest rate
7. Incremental management fee based on 1.25% of market cap growth assuming ~38M of incremental shares, a $0.76 DPS and a 6% dividend yield
8. $400M of equity based on an issuance at $10.66/share (the five-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP) as of close of market on February 6, 2018)
• Pro forma FY 2017 adjusted CAFD per share implies ~24% accretion over TERP’s standalone
FY 2017 CAFD per share guidance
‒ TERP’s FY 2017 CAFD guidance (midpoint): $118M (includes impact of asset sales and capital structure
changes)1
‒ Saeta’s FY 2017 cash flow from operating assets (CFOA)2 guidance (midpoint): $105M (includes impact of
asset acquisitions and capital structure changes)3,4
‒ Transaction-specific CAFD impacts include $350M of incremental project financings5, $450M in HoldCo
borrowings6, an increased BAM management fee7, and the issuance of ~38M shares to fund the acquisition8

• Prior to funding the transaction, TerraForm Power has over $1 billion of liquidity under
committed facilities, including $500 million under its corporate credit facility, which has been
upsized to $600 million, and $500 million under the sponsor line with Brookfield
• Assuming a $1.2 billion acquisition price, TERP intends to execute a funding plan comprised
of the following sources:
‒ A $400 million equity offering, which Brookfield has agreed to backstop in order to provide a
minimum issuance price equal to TerraForm Power’s 5-day VWAP immediately prior to
announcement of the transaction1;
‒ The remaining $800 million will be financed with available liquidity, which Terraform Power
intends to refinance with a combination of project financings of its unencumbered assets and
cash to be released from Saeta’s assets

Saeta Acquisition | Spanish Tariff Summary
Mitigant Description
Tariff Deficit Under
Control
• Historical deficit debt being repaid (€2.5 billion/year) with current power system annual surplus of
~€500 million1
Revision Dynamics
• Regulation allows government discretion over revision parameters (i.e., spread over 10-yr bond) every
6-years to set a “reasonable rate of return”
European Renewables
Targets
• Reduction in regulated returns would compromise 8 GW2 of new greenfield projects awarded at 2017
auctions
Lawsuits from 2014
Reform
• Government has already created reserves to address future settlements stemming from lawsuits from
2014 subsidy reform
• Spanish regulated return is a key value driver, but existing risks have been effectively
mitigated
‒ Spanish revenues account for ~80% of total Saeta revenues and are 100% regulated
‒ Regulated return revisions every 6-years with next revision in 2020
‒ Underwriting assumes a downward revision by 2020
• Risk of downward revision in 2020 of regulated return is mitigated by:

Exhibit 99.2

• Regulatory regime remunerates renewables through a guaranteed return on deemed investment (RAB model)
to be revised every 6 years based on Spanish bond plus a spread
‒ Regulated return takes into account the economic cycle, electricity demand, and Spanish treasury bond
outlook, providing a “reasonable return” for these activities
‒ Revised every 6 years, with the next review due in 2020
• Remuneration comprises a capacity payment (€/MW) on top of merchant revenues and is determined by
applying the regulated return to the Net Asset Value (NAV) of a theoretical reference plant
‒ NAV is based on standard cost and generation parameters of an average plant differentiated by region and
COD
‒ Capacity top-up value is the difference between merchant revenues forecasted by the regulator and the total
revenues required to reach regulated returns
• Determined ex-ante and valid for a 6-year period with minor look-back adjustments in year 3 to account
for difference between power price and peaking discount outturn versus government forecasts

Saeta Acquisition | Spanish Tariff Debt Overview
Historical Tariff Deficit / Surplus and cumulated debt (€bn)1
Source: Spanish Regulator (CNMC)
• Spain’s electricity tariff debt, which peaked in 2013, has since enjoyed a surplus as system costs have now
been brought in line with revenues
‒ Spain’s tariff debt accumulated through 2013 as full system costs were not passed through to consumers
‒ From 2013 to 2015, the Government implemented four key measures to rebalance system costs and revenues
• Moratoria on subsidies for new renewables since early 2012
• Increased access tariffs to consumers
• Cutting tariffs and subsidies: (i) reductions of subsidies to renewable and cogeneration plants by replacing
feed-in-tariffs with a regulated return model; (ii) a downward revision to returns for distribution and transmission
assets; (iii) and cuts to capacity payments to conventional generators
• New taxes: (i) generation tax on all generators, (ii) tax on gas/coal commodities, (iii) technology-specific taxes for
nuclear and hydro
