OUR OPERATIONS

We invest in renewable assets directly, as well as with institutional partners, joint venture partners and through other arrangements. Our portfolio of assets has approximately 19,300 megawatts ("MW") of capacity and annualized long-term average ("LTA") generation of approximately 57,400 gigawatt hours ("GWh"), in addition to a development pipeline of approximately 18,000 MW, making us one of the largest pure-play public renewable companies in the world. We leverage our extensive operating experience to maintain and enhance the value of assets, grow cash flows on an annual basis and cultivate positive relations with local stakeholders. The table below outlines our portfolio as at June 30, 2020:

.Letter to Unitholders<br><br>.

Over the past 20 years, we have built a scale, global renewable power business with over $50 billion of operating assets, an 18,000 megawatt development pipeline and deep expertise across all major renewable technologies. The world continues to be in the early stages of a global transition to the decarbonization of electricity grids. This shift, which is fueled by a push to reduce CO2 emissions, to meet increasingly stringent carbon reduction targets, and solar and wind power becoming the lowest cost, easiest to build providers of bulk power, will require significant investment over the coming decades. Accordingly, there is considerable room for our business to grow for many years ahead and, as subsidies decline or fall away, the opportunity will increasingly favor investors like ourselves who can drive value and enhance cash flows from our global scale and depth of operating expertise. We believe that we have established ourselves as one of the few entities with the scale, track record and global capabilities to partner with governments and businesses to help them achieve their goal of greening the global electricity grids, while earning a strong return for our investors.

Our solar business has grown substantially over the last five years. Today, we have over 3,000 megawatts of solar in operations and an additional nearly 10,000 megawatts of solar under development. As a result of technology advances and reductions in construction costs, solar can stand on its own without subsidies and more importantly, is now amongst the lowest cost sources of conventional power globally. To put this in perspective, solar costs over the last five years - the period in which we have built our solar business - have gone from over $4 per watt to install, to less than a $1 per watt in almost all jurisdictions around the world.

As a result of these favorable economics, as well as the renewable nature and perpetual source of free energy, we believe it is possible that in ten years from now the majority of the production capacity of Brookfield Renewable will be solar capacity. It is not that we do not believe in wind or hydro but the growth in solar and the ability for us to develop and earn strong risk adjusted returns should enable us to grow our solar operations at a far greater pace. Recently, we executed two transactions that highlight the strengths and scale of our solar capabilities and demonstrate the various ways we approach creating value for our shareholders.

First, we completed the merger of TerraForm Power into Brookfield Renewable on an all-stock basis. TerraForm Power was one of the largest owners of solar globally prior to the bankruptcy of its sponsor in 2016. Given our scale, we were one of the few organizations that could acquire it through the restructuring, and immediately stabilize the business, by implementing an operating plan, and resuming growth. As a result, we have driven significant value in the business, delivering TerraForm Power shareholders, including BEP, a 35% annualized total return and over two times their money since our involvement. The merger is accretive to Brookfield Renewable, strengthens our business in North America and Europe and further enhances our position as one of the largest publicly traded, pure-play renewable power businesses with an equity market capitalization of approximately $20 billion.

The second transaction we executed was to acquire a 1,200 megawatt solar development project in Brazil. This is one of the largest solar development projects in the world and requires both development and energy marketing capabilities to bring the project to completion. The project is 75% contracted, and we intend to leverage our deep energy marketing capabilities to contract the remaining power. In addition, given our global scale, we expect to drive down equipment procurement, installation and operating costs to deliver additional value over time. Accordingly, we expect to achieve approximately 20% returns on this investment. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Additional highlights for the quarter include:

• Generated FFO of $232 million, up slightly from prior year, and normalized FFO of $241 million, a 19% increase over the prior year, as our sites continue to perform well with high levels of asset

availability, and we benefited from growth from new acquisitions and development assets coming online;

• We agreed on transactions to invest over $580 million ($130 million net to BEP) of equity;
• Our liquidity remains robust at $3.4 billion and our balance sheet remains in excellent shape - with no material debt maturities over the next five years; and

• So far this year, we generated close to $500 million of proceeds ($85 million net to BEP) from asset recycling initiatives.

Brookfield Renewable Corporation (BEPC)

We completed the special distribution of BEPC shares providing investors with greater flexibility in how they invest in our business. BEPC is listed on the same exchanges as BEP, offering investors the optionality to invest in Brookfield Renewable through either a partnership or Canadian corporation, which we believe should lead to increased demand and enhanced liquidity for our securities.

We completed the special distribution on July 30th by providing unitholders with one share of BEPC for every four units of BEP. We have subsequently seen strong support for BEPC shares in the market, with strong trading volumes over the first week of trading and the share price trading slightly above the BEP unit price. We are very pleased with the launch and positive market reception thus far.

Results from Operations

During the second quarter, we generated FFO of $232 million, or $0.75 per unit, as the business benefited from recent acquisitions, strong operational performance, and execution on margin enhancement initiatives. On a normalized basis, our results are up 19% over last year.

With an increasingly diversified portfolio of operating assets, limited off-taker concentration risk, and a strong contract profile, our cash flows are highly resilient. While generation for the quarter was below the long-term average, driven largely by drier conditions in the New York and Colombia, generation so far this year has been roughly in line with long-term average. As we have reiterated, we expect this type of resource cyclicality, and therefore do not manage the business based on under-or over-performance of generation relative to the long-term average in any given period. Our focus continues to be on diversifying the business, which mitigates exposure to any single resource, market or counterparty.

We continue to be focused on maintaining a highly diversified, investment grade customer base with over 600 customers around the world under long-term power purchase agreements. For example, our commercial and industrial counterparties, which comprise less than 20% of our generation, are well diversified across regions and sectors, with our largest C&I customer representing only 2% of our total contracted generation. Our contract profile remains strong, with 95% of total generation contracted in 2020, and a weighted-average remaining contract length of 15 years. Therefore, our cash flows are well protected from exposure to short-term price volatility and are expected to remain stable over the long-term.

During the quarter, our hydroelectric segment delivered FFO of $193 million. In North America, we remain focused on securing short-term contracts in this low power price environment to retain upside optionality for when prices improve. In our Brazilian and Colombian portfolios, we continue to focus on extending the duration of our contract profile while maintaining a certain portion of uncontracted generation to mitigate hydrology risk. This quarter, we secured 17 new contracts in Latin America for a total of 432 gigawatt-hours per year, including one contract in Colombia with a seven-year term. The weighted-average remaining contract duration is now nine years in Brazil and three years in Colombia.

Our wind and solar segments generated a combined $85 million of FFO, representing a 29% increase over the prior year, as we continue to generate stable revenues from these assets and benefit from the diversification of our fleet and highly contracted cash flows with long duration power purchase agreements. This quarter, we commissioned almost 100 MW of solar projects and secured five long-term PPAs with investment grade counterparties to support our 1,500 MW wind development pipeline in the U.S. and Europe.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Our liquidity position remains strong, with close to $3.4 billion of total available liquidity, which allows us to support our current operations as well as to opportunistically pursue new investments.

Our investment grade balance sheet has no material maturities over the next five years, an average overall debt duration of 10 years, and approximately 80% of our financings are non-recourse to BEP. During the quarter, we executed over $1.1 billion of financings across the business.

We also continued to execute our capital recycling strategy of selling mature, de-risked or non-core assets to lower cost of capital buyers and redeploying the proceeds into higher yielding opportunities. So far this year, we, together with our institutional partners, generated close to $500 million of proceeds ($85 million net to BEP) from these activities.

Outlook

Our business remains resilient, as we continue to actively look for opportunities to grow our portfolio on a value basis. As such, we remain firm in the belief that Brookfield Renewable is one of the strongest, best positioned platforms to contribute to the decarbonization of the globe through investment in multiple renewable technologies. In short, we believe the prospects for the growth of our business are better than they have ever been, and we remain well positioned to achieve our objective of delivering total returns on a per unit basis of 12% to 15% over the long term.

On behalf of the Board and management of Brookfield Renewable, we thank all our unitholders for their ongoing support.

Sincerely,

OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. ("Brookfield Renewable") is a globally diversified, multi-technology, owner and operator of renewable power assets.

Our business model is to utilize our global reach to acquire and develop high quality renewable power assets below intrinsic value, finance them on a long-term, low-risk and investment grade basis through a conservative financing strategy and then optimize cash flows by applying our operating expertise to enhance value.

One of the largest, public pure play renewable businesses globally. Brookfield Renewable has a proven track record as a publicly-traded operator and investor in the renewable power sector for over 20 years. Today we have a large, multi-technology and globally diversified portfolio of pure-play renewable assets that are supported by approximately 3,000 experienced operators. Brookfield Renewable invests in renewable assets directly, as well as with institutional partners, joint venture partners and in other arrangements. Our portfolio consists of approximately 19,300 MW of installed capacity largely across four continents, a development pipeline of approximately 18,000 MW^(1)^, and annualized long-term average generation on a proportionate basis of approximately 30,700 GWh.

The following charts illustrate annualized long-term average generation on a proportionate basis:

chart-81acf5d502b651e8a16.jpgchart-d69c9a415fa2506e90e.jpg

Helping to accelerate the decarbonization of the electricity girds. As the world transitions to renewable energy and looks to reduce CO2 consumption, we believe we are one of the entities of scale, with the track record and global capabilities to deliver investors a resilient, stable distribution plus meaningful growth through all market cycles.  Our carbon footprint is one of the lowest in the sector, and our annual generation of 57 terawatt-hours avoids approximately 28 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually.  As one of the largest issuers of green bonds globally, we offer debt investors the ability to invest in our renewable power portfolio or in particular assets directly. Finally, we offer customers the ability to procure renewable generation across multiple technologies, and in 2020, we have nearly 18,000 gigawatt-hours contracted with commercial and industrial customers, power authorities and utilities alike across all our core regions.

Stable, diversified and high-quality cash flows with attractive long-term value for LP Unitholders. We intend to maintain a highly stable, predictable cash flow profile sourced from a diversified portfolio of low operating cost, long-life hydroelectric, wind and solar assets that sell electricity under long-term, fixed price contracts with creditworthy counterparties. Approximately 95% of our proportionate generation output in 2020 was contracted with high-quality counterparties including public power authorities, load-serving utilities, industrial users or to affiliates of Brookfield. Our power purchase agreements have a weighted-average remaining duration of 15 years, on a proportionate basis, providing long-term cash flow visibility.

^(1)^Includes projects that Brookfield Renewable has entered into an agreement to acquire. Transactions are expected to close in the second half of 2020.

Strong financial profile and conservative financing strategy. Brookfield Renewable maintains a robust balance sheet, strong investment grade rating, and access to global capital markets to ensure cash flow resiliency through the cycle. Our approach to financing is to raise the majority of our debt in the form of asset-specific, non-recourse borrowings at our subsidiaries on an investment grade basis with no financial maintenance covenants. Substantially all of our debt is either investment grade rated or sized to investment grade. Our corporate debt to total capitalization is 19%, and approximately 80% of our proportionate borrowings are non-recourse. Corporate borrowings and proportionate non-recourse borrowings each have weighted-average terms of approximately ten years, with no material maturities over the next five years. Approximately 90% of our financings are fixed rate, and only 5% of our debt in North America and Europe is exposed to changes in interest rates. Our available liquidity as at June 30, 2020 is over $3 billion of cash and cash equivalents, investments in marketable securities and the available portion of credit facilities.

Best-in class operating expertise. Brookfield Renewable has approximately 3,000 operating employees and over 140 power marketing experts that are located across the globe to help optimize the performance and maximize the returns of all our assets. Our expertise in operating and managing power generation facilities spans over 100 years and includes full operating, development and power marketing capabilities.

Well positioned for cash flow growth. We are focused on driving cash flow growth from existing operations, fully funded by internally generated cash flow, including inflation escalations in our contracts, margin expansion through revenue growth and cost reduction initiatives, and building out our approximately 18,000 MW proprietary development pipeline at premium returns. While we do not rely on acquisitions to achieve our growth targets, our business seeks upside through engagement in mergers and acquisitions on an opportunistic basis. We employ a contrarian strategy, and our global scale and multi-technology capabilities allow us to rotate capital where it is scarce in order to earn strong risk-adjusted returns. We take a disciplined approach to allocating capital into development and acquisitions with a focus on downside protection and preservation of capital. In the last five years, we have deployed close to $2.5 billion in equity as we have invested in, acquired, or commissioned approximately 12,700 MW across hydroelectric, wind, solar and storage facilities. Our ability to develop and acquire assets is strengthened by our established operating and project development teams across the globe, strategic relationship with Brookfield, and our liquidity and capitalization profile. We have, in the past, and may continue in the future to pursue the acquisition or development of assets through arrangements with institutional investors in Brookfield sponsored or co-sponsored partnerships.

Attractive distribution profile. We pursue a strategy which we expect will provide for highly stable, predictable cash flows ensuring a sustainable distribution yield. We target a long-term distribution growth rate in the range of 5% to 9% annually.

Operations

We delivered Funds From Operations of $232 million or $0.75 per unit, which represents a 1% increase from the prior year as our operations benefited from:

• Higher margins due to realization of margin enhancing initiatives across our business;
• Relatively higher realized prices in Colombia, Brazil and Canada on the back of inflation escalation and our re-contracting and commercial initiatives;
--- ---
• Contributions from growth through both acquisitions and development activities; and
--- ---
• Offset by lower generation, primarily at our hydroelectric facilities in the northeast United States and Colombia (14% below long-term average and 23% lower than prior year generation on a same-store basis)
--- ---

After deducting non-cash depreciation, net loss attributable to Unitholders for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $44 million or $0.14 per LP Unit, compared to net income of $17 million or $0.05 per LP Unit in the prior year.

Continued to focus on extending our contract profile as we completed the following:

• In Colombia, we secured eight inflation-indexed contracts for 288 GWh/year, including individual contracts with up to seven years in duration
• In Brazil, we entered into nine new contracts to deliver 144 GWh/year, including individual contracts with up to five years in duration
--- ---

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Remain well capitalized and backed by a resilient balance sheet:

• Liquidity position remains robust, with close to $3.4 billion of total available liquidity, no material maturities over the next five years and a strong investment grade balance sheet (BBB+)
• Capitalized on the low interest rate environment and sourced liquidity from diverse funding levers
--- ---
◦ Secured over $1.1 billion of investment-grade non-recourse financings across our diverse portfolio
--- ---
◦ Completed the issuance of approximately C$350 million of ten-year corporate green bonds at approximately 3.5%
--- ---
• So far this year, we generated close to $500 million of proceeds ($85 million net to BEP) from capital recycling activities
--- ---

Growth and Development

Subsequent to quarter-end, we completed the special distribution of class A exchangeable subordinate voting shares of Brookfield Renewable Corporation (“BEPC”). The holders of Brookfield Renewable’s limited partnership units of record as of July 27, 2020 received one (1) Share of BEPC for every four (4) BEP units held, or 0.25 Shares for each BEP unit.

Following the special distribution of BEPC shares, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding Class A common stock of Terraform Power, Inc. (“TerraForm Power”), other than the approximately 62% already owned by Brookfield Renewable and its affiliates. TerraForm Power stockholders received BEPC shares or, at their election, BEP units as consideration.

Subsequent to quarter-end, we, together with our institutional partners, entered into an agreement to acquire a 1,200 MW construction ready solar development project in Brazil with a target date for commercial operation in early 2023.

Completed, together with our institutional and joint venture partners, the commissioning of almost 100 MW of development projects.

Continued to progress our development pipeline:

• Continued to advance the construction of 2,400 MW of hydroelectric, wind, pumped storage, solar PV and rooftop solar development projects. These projects are expected to be commissioned between 2020 and 2023 and to generate annualized Funds From Operations net to Brookfield Renewable of approximately $53 million.

All values are in US Dollars. Variance Analysis For The Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

Revenues totaling $651 million represents a decrease of $136 million over the prior year. On a same store, constant currency basis, revenues decreased $72 million, primarily due to below average hydrology conditions in the United States compared to prior year where we experienced higher than average generation (17% higher than long-term average) as well as low system-wide hydrology conditions in Colombia (66% of long-term average), partially offset by higher average realized revenue per MWh which benefited from inflation indexation, re-contracting initiatives and favorable generation mix. Recently acquired and commissioned facilities contributed 282 GWh and $18 million to revenues which was more than offset by recently completed asset sales that reduced generation by 170 GWh and revenues by $21 million.

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the prior period, primarily against the Brazilian reais and Colombian peso, reduced revenues by approximately $61 million, which was partially offset by a $47 million favorable foreign exchange impact on our operating, interest and depreciation expense for the quarter.

Direct operating costs totaling $248 million represents a decrease of $4 million over the prior year due to cost-saving initiatives across our business and the impact of foreign exchange movements noted above, partially offset by additional costs from growth from our recently acquired and commissioned facilities.

Management service costs totaling $36 million represents an increase of $13 million over the prior year due to the growth of our business.

Interest expense totaling $154 million represents a decrease of $24 million over the prior year due to the benefit of recent refinancing activities that reduced our average cost of borrowing and the foreign exchange movements noted above.

Share of loss from equity-accounted investments totaling $15 million represents a decrease of $15 million driven by higher non-cash depreciation expense due to the growth of our portfolio.

Income tax recovery totaled $13 million compared to an income tax expense of $29 million in the prior year due primarily to a decrease in net income before income taxes due to the above noted items.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders totaled $44 million compared to a net income attributable to Unitholders of $17 million in the prior year due to the above noted items.

Variance Analysis For The Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

Revenues totaling $1,443 million represents a decrease of $169 million over the prior year. On a same store, constant currency basis, revenues decreased $52 million due to below average hydrology conditions in Colombia and North America, partially offset by higher average realized revenue per MWh which benefited from inflation indexation, re-contracting initiatives and favorable generation mix. Recently acquired and commissioned facilities contributed 529 GWh and $35 million to revenues which was more than offset by recently completed asset sales that reduced generation by 381 GWh and revenues by $50 million.

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the prior period, primarily against the Brazilian reais and Colombian peso, reduced revenues by approximately $102 million, which was partially offset by a $77 million favorable foreign exchange impact on our operating, interest and depreciation expense for the quarter.

Direct operating costs totaling $509 million represents an increase of $3 million over the prior year due to cost-saving initiatives across our business and the impact of foreign exchange movements noted above being more than offset by higher power purchases in Colombia, which are passed through to our customers, and additional costs due to growth from our recently acquired and commissioned facilities.

Management service costs totaling $67 million represents an increase of $23 million over the prior year due to the growth of our business.

Interest expense totaling $316 million represents a decrease of $35 million over the prior year due to the benefit of recent refinancing activities that reduced our average cost of borrowing and the foreign exchange movements noted above.

Share of loss from equity-accounted investments totaling $31 million compared to earnings from equity-accounted investments totaling $32 million in the prior year represents a decrease of $63 million driven by higher non-cash depreciation expense due to the growth of our portfolio and deferred tax expenses, as the prior year benefited from a deferred tax recovery relating to the recognition of operating loss carryforwards.

Income tax expense of $5 million represents a decrease of $68 million due primarily to a decrease in net income before income taxes due to the above noted items.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders totaled $26 million compared to a net income attributable to Unitholders of $60 million in the prior year due to the above noted items.

PART 3 – ADDITIONAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

SUMMARY CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION

The following table provides a summary of the key line items on the unaudited interim consolidated statements of financial position:

(MILLIONS) June 30, 2020 December 31, 2019
Assets held for sale $ 352

COP 3,759 3,277

All values are in US Dollars.

Our balance sheet remains strong and reflects the stable nature of the business and our continued growth.

Assets held for sale

Assets held for sale totaled $170 million as at June 30, 2020 compared to $352 million as at December 31, 2019. The $182 million decrease was primarily attributable to the completed sale of our solar portfolio in Thailand during the period. The remaining assets held for sale at June 30, 2020 correspond to a 33 MW solar asset in South Africa and 19 MW of solar assets in Malaysia.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment totaled $28.5 billion as at June 30, 2020 compared to $30.7 billion as at December 31, 2019. The $2.2 billion decrease was primarily attributable to the impact of foreign exchange due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar, which decreased property, plant and equipment by $2.2 billion and depreciation expense associated with property, plant and equipment of $398 million. The decrease was partially offset by the acquisition of 47 MW of operating solar capacity in India and 278 MW of solar development projects in Brazil during the first quarter of 2020 and our continued investments in the development of power generating assets and our sustaining capital expenditures, which increased property, plant and equipment by $154 million in aggregate. During the second quarter, we exercised our option to buy out the lease on our 192 MW hydroelectric facility in Louisiana and recognized a $247 million increase to the value of our corresponding property, plant and equipment.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Brookfield Renewable's related party transactions are in the normal course of business, and are recorded at the exchange amount. Brookfield Renewable's related party transactions are primarily with Brookfield Asset Management.

Brookfield Renewable sells electricity to Brookfield through long-term power purchase agreements, or provides fixed price guarantees to provide contracted cash flow and reduce Brookfield Renewable’s exposure to electricity prices in deregulated power markets.

In 2011, on formation of Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield transferred certain development projects to Brookfield Renewable for no upfront consideration but is entitled to receive variable consideration on commercial operation or sale of these projects.

Brookfield Renewable has also entered into a number of voting agreements with Brookfield whereby Brookfield, as a managing member of entities related to Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III and Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV, in which Brookfield Renewable holds investments in power generating operations with institutional partners, agreed to provide to Brookfield Renewable the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of such entities. As a result, Brookfield Renewable controls and consolidates such investments.

Brookfield Renewable participates with institutional investors in Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV and Brookfield Infrastructure Debt Fund (“Private Funds”), each of which is a Brookfield sponsored fund, and in connection therewith, Brookfield Renewable, together with our institutional investors, has access to short-term financing using the Private Funds’ credit facilities.

Brookfield Asset Management has provided a $400 million committed unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in December 2020 and the interest rate applicable on the draws is LIBOR plus up to 1.8%. During the current period there were no draws on the committed unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield Asset Management. Brookfield Asset Management may from time to time place funds on deposit with Brookfield Renewable which are repayable on demand including any interest accrued. There were no funds placed on deposit with Brookfield Renewable during the six months ended June 30, 2020 (2019: $600 million, which was fully repaid during the period). There was no interest expense on the Brookfield Asset Management revolving credit facility or deposit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively (2019: nil and $3 million, respectively).

EQUITY

General partnership interest in a holding subsidiary held by Brookfield

Brookfield, as the owner of the 1% GP interest in BRELP, is entitled to regular distributions plus an incentive distribution based on the amount by which quarterly LP Unit distributions exceed specified target levels. As at June 30, 2020, to the extent that LP Unit distributions exceed $0.375 per LP Unit per quarter, the incentive is 15% of distributions above this threshold. To the extent that LP Unit distributions exceed $0.4225 per LP Unit per quarter, the incentive distribution is equal to 25% of distributions above this threshold. Incentive distributions of $15 million and $31 million were declared during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively (2019: $12 million and $25 million).

Preferred limited partners' equity

During the first quarter of 2020, Brookfield Renewable issued 8,000,000 Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units, Series 17 (the “Series 17 Preferred Units”) at a price of $25 per unit for gross proceeds of $200 million. The holders of the Series 17 Preferred Units are entitled to receive a cumulative quarterly fixed distribution yielding 5.25%.

The preferred limited partners’ equity units do not have a fixed maturity date and are not redeemable at the option of the holders. As at June 30, 2020, none of the preferred limited partners’ equity units have been redeemed by Brookfield Renewable.

In July 2020, the Toronto Stock Exchange accepted notice of Brookfield Renewable's intention to renew the normal course issuer bid in connection with the outstanding Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units for another year to July 8, 2021, or earlier should the repurchases be completed prior to such date. Under this normal course issuer bid, Brookfield Renewable is permitted to repurchase up to 10% of the total public float for each respective series of its Class A Preference Units. Unitholders may receive a copy of the notice, free of charge, by contacting Brookfield Renewable. No shares were repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Limited partners' equity

As at June 30, 2020, Brookfield Asset Management owns, directly and indirectly, 175,491,567 LP Units and Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units, representing approximately 57% of Brookfield Renewable on a fully-exchanged basis and the remaining approximately 43% is held by public investors.

During the second quarter of 2020, certain affiliates of Brookfield Asset Management completed a secondary offering of 10,236,000 LP Units at a price of $48.85 per LP Unit, for gross proceeds of $500 million. Brookfield Renewable did not sell LP Units in the offering and will not receive any of the proceeds from the offering of LP Units.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Brookfield Renewable issued 30,458 LP Units and 69,636 LP Units, respectively (2019: 54,749 LP Units and 105,248 LP units, respectively) under the distribution reinvestment plan at a total value of $2 million and $3 million, respectively (2019: $1 million and $3 million, respectively).

In December 2019, Brookfield Renewable commenced a normal course issuer bid in connection with its LP Units. Under this normal course issuer bid Brookfield Renewable is permitted to repurchase up to 8.9 million LP Units, representing approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding LP Units, for capital management purposes. The bid will expire on December 11, 2020, or earlier should Brookfield Renewable complete its repurchases prior to such date. There were no LP units repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

North America

Funds From Operations at our North American business were $145 million versus $168 million in the prior year as the benefits from inflation indexation and cost reduction initiatives were more than offset by lower generation, primarily in the northeast United States, that was 3% below long-term average and 16% lower than prior year where we experienced very strong generation (15% above long-term average) and lower average revenue per MWh in the United States due primarily to generation mix.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased $69 million over the prior year primarily due to the above noted decrease to Funds From Operations and lower unrealized gains on our revenue hedging activities.

Brazil

Funds From Operations at our Brazilian business were $29 million versus $33 million in the prior year. On a local currency basis, Funds From Operations increased versus the prior year due to the benefits of cost saving initiatives and higher contracted pricing as a result of inflation indexation and re-contracting initiatives that were partly offset by lower generation relative to the prior year. These benefits were more than offset by the weakening of the Brazilian reais versus the U.S. dollar.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased $7 million over the prior year driven by the above noted decrease in Funds From Operations.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Interim Report June 30, 2020
Page 19

Colombia

Funds From Operations at our Colombian business were $19 million versus $25 million in the prior year. We benefited from our cost reduction initiatives and a 43% increase in average revenue per MWh as a result of inflation indexation, re-contracting initiatives and favorable market prices realized on our uncontracted volumes, which were impacted by low system-wide hydrology (66% of long-term average). The increase was more than offset by lower generation and the weakening of the Colombian peso versus the U.S. dollar.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased by $6 million over the prior year primarily due to the above noted decrease in Funds From Operations.

North America

Funds From Operations at our North American business were $29 million versus $23 million in the prior year due primarily to the benefit from our cost reduction and refinancing initiatives.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders decreased by $11 million primarily due to the above noted increase in Funds From Operations.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Interim Report June 30, 2020
Page 20

Europe

Funds From Operations at our European business were $10 million versus $11 million in the prior year due to the sale of our Northern Ireland and certain Portuguese assets ($2 million and 39 GWh). On a same store basis, Funds From Operations were higher than the prior year as higher average revenues per MWh due to inflation indexation of our contracts and cost reduction initiatives were partially offset by lower wind resource.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders decreased by $2 million over the prior year as the above noted decrease in Funds From Operations was more than offset by lower non-cash depreciation as a result of the sale of the above noted assets.

Brazil

Funds From Operations at our Brazilian business of $5 million versus $4 million in the prior year. On a local currency basis, Funds from Operations was higher than the prior year due to inflation indexation of our contracts and cost saving initiatives. The increase was partially offset by the weakening of the Brazilian reais versus the U.S. dollar.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased $4 million versus the prior year due to higher non-cash accretion expenses.

Asia

Funds From Operations at our Asian business were $4 million versus $1 million in the prior year, due to the contribution from growth following the acquisition in the prior year of a 210 MW wind facility in India and a 200 MW wind portfolio in China ($3 million and 60 GWh). On a same store basis, our assets continue to perform in line with expectation and consistent with prior year.

Net income attributable to Unitholders was $2 million, consistent with the prior year as the above noted increase in Funds From Operations was offset by higher non-cash depreciation expenses due to growth.

SOLAR OPERATIONS ON PROPORTIONATE BASIS

The following table presents our proportionate results for solar operations for the three months ended June 30:

Funds From Operations $ 37 $ 27
Depreciation (20 ) (15 )
Deferred taxes and other (23 ) (8 )
Net (loss) income $ (6 ) $ 4

Funds From Operations at our solar business were $37 million versus $27 million in the prior year due to the contribution from acquisitions, net of disposals ($7 million and 134 GWh) and gain from the sale of a solar development project in the United States. These increases were partially offset by lower realized market prices.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders at our solar business was $6 million versus net income attributable to Unitholders of $4 million in the prior year as the above noted increase in Funds From Operations was more than offset by unrealized gains on our interest rate hedging activities that benefited the prior year.

CONTRACT PROFILE

We operate the business on a largely contracted basis to provide a high degree of predictability in Funds From Operations. We maintain a long-term view that electricity prices and the demand for electricity from renewable sources will rise due to a growing level of acceptance around climate change, the legislated requirements in some areas to diversify away from fossil fuel based generation and because they are becoming increasingly cost competitive.

In Brazil and Colombia, we also expect power prices will continue to be supported by the need to build new supply over the medium-to-long term to serve growing demand. In these markets, contracting for power is the only current mechanism to buy and sell power, and therefore we would expect to capture rising prices as we re-contract our power over the medium-term.

The following table sets out our contracts over the next five years for generation output in North America, Europe and certain other countries, assuming long-term average on a proportionate basis. The table excludes Brazil and Colombia, where we would expect the energy associated with maturing contracts to be re-contracted in the normal course given the construct of the respective power markets. In these countries we currently have a contracted profile of approximately 85% and 70%, respectively, of the long-term average and we would expect to maintain this going forward. Overall, our portfolio has a weighted-average remaining contract duration of 15 years on a proportionate basis.

Weighted-average remaining contract durations on a proportionate basis are 16 years in North America, 14 years in Europe, 9 years in Brazil, 3 years in Colombia and 18 years across our remaining jurisdictions.

In North America, over the next five years, a number of contracts will expire at our hydroelectric facilities. Based on current market prices for energy and ancillary products, we do not foresee a negative impact to cash flows from contracts expiring over the next five years.

In our Brazilian and Colombian portfolios, we continue to focus on securing long-term contracts while maintaining a certain percentage of uncontracted generation to mitigate hydrology risk.

The majority of Brookfield Renewable’s long-term power purchase agreements within our North American and European businesses are with investment-grade rated or creditworthy counterparties. The economic exposure of our contracted generation on a proportionate basis is distributed as follows: power authorities (42%), distribution companies (24%), industrial users (18%) and Brookfield (16%).

PART 5 – LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

CAPITALIZATION

A key element of our financing strategy is to raise the majority of our debt in the form of asset-specific, non-recourse borrowings at our subsidiaries on an investment-grade basis. On a consolidated basis, substantially all of our debt is either investment grade rated or sized to investment grade and approximately 80% of debt is non-recourse.

The following table summarizes our capitalization:

We operate with sufficient liquidity to enable us to fund growth initiatives, capital expenditures, distributions and withstand sudden adverse changes in economic circumstances or short-term fluctuations in generation. We maintain a strong, investment grade balance sheet characterized by a conservative capital structure, access to multiple funding levers including a focus on capital recycling on an opportunistic basis, and diverse sources of capital. Principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, our credit facilities, up-financings on non-recourse borrowings and proceeds from the issuance of various securities through public markets.

We remain focused on refinancing near-term facilities on acceptable terms and maintaining a manageable maturity ladder. We do not anticipate material issues in refinancing our borrowings through 2024 on acceptable terms and will do so opportunistically based on the prevailing interest rate environment.

PART 7 – CRITICAL ESTIMATES, ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND INTERNAL CONTROLS

CRITICAL ESTIMATES AND CRITICAL JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34, which require the use of estimates and judgments in reporting assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and contingencies. In the judgment of management, none of the estimates outlined in Note 1 – Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are considered critical accounting estimates as defined in Canadian National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations with the exception of the estimates related to the valuation of property, plant and equipment and the related deferred income tax liabilities. These assumptions include estimates of future electricity prices, discount rates, expected long-term average generation, inflation rates, terminal year and operating and capital costs, the amount, the timing and the income tax rates of future income tax provisions. Estimates also include determination of accruals, purchase price allocations, useful lives, asset valuations, asset impairment testing, deferred tax liabilities, decommissioning retirement obligations and those relevant to the defined benefit pension and non-pension benefit plans. Estimates are based on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

In making estimates, management relies on external information and observable conditions where possible, supplemented by internal analysis, as required. These estimates have been applied in a manner consistent with that in the prior year and there are no known trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that we believe will materially affect the methodology or assumptions utilized in this report. These estimates are impacted by, among other things, future power prices, movements in interest rates, foreign exchange volatility and other factors, some of which are highly uncertain, as described in the “Risk Factors” section in our 2019 Annual Report and the additional risk factors as identified below. The interrelated nature of these factors prevents us from quantifying the overall impact of these movements on Brookfield Renewable’s financial statements in a meaningful way. These sources of estimation uncertainty relate in varying degrees to substantially all asset and liability account balances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Additional risk factors other than as described in the "Risk Factors" section of our 2019 Annual Report are as follows:

Risks Associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic

The rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus, which was declared by the World Health Organization to be a pandemic on March 11, 2020, and actions taken globally in response to COVID-19, have significantly disrupted international business activities. In addition, the Brookfield Renewable group’s business relies, to a certain extent, on free movement of goods, services, and capital from around the world, which has been significantly restricted as a result of COVID-19. The Brookfield Renewable group has implemented a response plan to maintain its operations despite the outbreak of the virus, including extra safety precautions with respect to our personnel and contingency plans with respect to our facilities. However, the Brookfield Renewable group may experience direct or indirect impacts from the pandemic, including delays in development or construction activities in its business and has some risk that its contract counterparties could fail to meet their obligations.

To date, the Brookfield Renewable group has not experienced the material impact to its operations, financial condition, cash flows or financial performance that has been experienced by many other businesses. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances surrounding COVID-19, it is difficult to predict how significant the impact of COVID-19, including any responses to it, will be on the global economy and the business of the Brookfield Renewable group or for how long any disruptions are likely to continue. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, rapidly evolving and difficult to predict, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and additional actions which may be taken to contain COVID-19. Such developments could have an adverse effect on the Brookfield Renewable group’s assets, liabilities, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

Despite these conditions and risks, our business is highly resilient given we are an owner, operator and investor in one of the most critical sectors in the world.  We generate revenues that are predominantly backed by long-term contracts with well diversified creditworthy counterparties.  The majority of our assets can be operated from centralized control centers and our operators around the world have implemented contingency plans to ensure operations, maintenance and capital programs continue with little disruption.  We have a robust balance sheet with strong investment grade rating, over $3 billion of available liquidity and no material maturities over the next five years.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

There have been no new changes to IFRS with an impact on Brookfield Renewable in 2020.

FUTURE CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There are currently no future changes to IFRS with potential impact on Brookfield Renewable.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

No changes were made in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal control over financial reporting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 pandemic on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to quarter end, Brookfield Renewable, alongside institutional partners, entered into an agreement to acquire a 1,200 MW solar development portfolio in Brazil for approximately $50 million, which are targeted for commercial operations in early 2023. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, with Brookfield Renewable expected to hold a 25% interest.

On July 29, 2020, Brookfield Renewable contributed its renewable power assets in the United States, Brazil and Colombia (excluding a 10% interest in certain Brazilian and Colombian operations, which will continue to be held indirectly by Brookfield Renewable) to BEPC. On July 30, 2020, Brookfield Renewable completed a special distribution (the “special distribution”) whereby unitholders of record as of July 27, 2020 (the “Record Date”) received one class A exchangeable subordinate voting share (“BEPC exchangeable share") for every four units held. Immediately prior to the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable received BEPC exchangeable shares through a distribution by BRELP (the "BRELP" distribution) of the BEPC exchangeable shares to all of its unitholders. As a result of the BRELP Distribution, (i) Brookfield and its subsidiaries received approximately 33.1 million BEPC exchangeable shares and (ii) Brookfield Renewable received approximately 44.7 million class A shares, which it subsequently distributed to unitholders pursuant to the special distribution. Upon completion of the special distribution, (i) holders of units held approximately 42.8% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares (ii) Brookfield and its affiliates held approximately 57.2% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares, and (iii) a subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable owned all of the issued and outstanding class B multiple voting shares, or class B shares, which represent a 75.0% voting interest in BEPC, and all of the issued and outstanding class C non-voting shares, or class C shares, of BEPC, which entitle Brookfield Renewable to the residual value in BEPC after payment in full of the amount due to holders of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares. Brookfield Renewable directly and indirectly controlled BEPC prior to the special distribution and continues to control BEPC subsequent to the special distribution through its interests in the company. The BEPC exchangeable shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “BEPC”.

The thresholds used for the calculation of incentive distribution rights that Brookfield is entitled to as the owner of the 1% GP interest in BRELP will be reduced on the completion of the special distribution to give effect to the special distribution, to $0.300 and $0.338, respectively.

On July 31, 2020, shortly following the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable acquired all of the outstanding Class A common stock of TerraForm Power, other than the approximately 62% already owned by Brookfield Renewable and its affiliates, through a series of transactions (the "TerraForm Power acquisition"). Pursuant to the TerraForm Power acquisition, each holder of public shares of TerraForm Power was entitled to receive 0.47625 of a BEPC exchangeable share or, at the election of the holder, a LP Unit. As a result of the TerraForm Power acquisition, holders of public shares of TerraForm Power exchanged their shares for 37,035,241 exchangeable units of BEPC and 4,034,469 LP Units. After giving effect to the special distribution and the TERP acquisition, Brookfield and its affiliates, including Brookfield Renewable, through its ownership of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares, holds an approximate 84.7% voting interest in BEPC. Holders of BEPC exchangeable shares, excluding Brookfield and its affiliates and Brookfield Renewable, hold an approximate 15.3% aggregate voting interest in BEPC.

Concurrently with the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Renewable entered into a voting agreement with Brookfield whereby Brookfield agreed to provide Brookfield Renewable with a number of voting rights, including the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of the Brookfield entity that owns shares in TerraForm Power. As a result, Brookfield Renewable controls and consolidates TerraForm Power.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Interim Report June 30, 2020
Page 39

Following the closing of the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Asset Management owns, directly and indirectly, 220,030,707 LP Units and Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units and BEPC exchangeable shares, representing approximately 51.5% of Brookfield Renewable on a fully-exchanged basis and the remaining approximately 48.5% is held by public investors.

PART 8 – PRESENTATION TO STAKEHOLDERS AND PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

PRESENTATION TO PUBLIC STAKEHOLDERS

Equity

Brookfield Renewable’s consolidated equity interests include the non-voting LP Units held by public LP Unitholders and Brookfield, Redeemable/Exchangeable Limited Partnership Units in BRELP, a holding subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, held by Brookfield, and GP interest in BRELP held by Brookfield. The LP Units and the Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units have the same economic attributes in all respects, except that the Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units provide Brookfield the right to request that their units be redeemed for cash consideration. In the event that Brookfield exercises this right, Brookfield Renewable has the right, at its sole discretion, to satisfy the redemption request with LP Units, rather than cash, on a one-for-one basis. Brookfield, as holder of Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units, participates in earnings and distributions on a per unit basis equivalent to the per unit participation of the LP Units. As Brookfield Renewable, at its sole discretion, has the right to settle the obligation with LP Units, the Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units are classified under equity, and not as a liability.

Given the exchange feature referenced above, we are presenting LP Units, Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units, and the GP Interest as separate components of consolidated equity. This presentation does not impact the total income (loss), per unit or share information, or total consolidated equity.

As at the date of this report, Brookfield owns an approximate 51.5% LP Unit interest, on a fully-exchanged basis, and all general partnership interests in Brookfield Renewable, representing a 0.01% interest, while the remaining approximately 48.5% is held by the public.

Actual and Long-term Average Generation

For assets acquired, disposed or reaching commercial operation during the year, reported generation is calculated from the acquisition, disposition or commercial operation date and is not annualized. As it relates to Colombia only, generation includes both hydroelectric and cogeneration facilities. “Other” includes generation from North America cogeneration and Brazil biomass.

North America hydroelectric long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of a simulation based on historical inflow data performed over a period of typically 30 years. Colombia hydroelectric long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of a simulation based on historical inflow data performed over a period of typically 20 years. Hydroelectric assets located in Brazil benefit from a market framework which levelizes generation risk across producers. Wind long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of simulated historical wind speed data performed over a period of typically 10 years. Solar long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of a simulation using historical irradiance levels in the locations of our projects from the last 14 to 20 years combined with actual generation data during the operational period.

We compare actual generation levels against the long-term average to highlight the impact of an important factor that affects the variability of our business results. In the short-term, we recognize that hydrology, wind and irradiance conditions will vary from one period to the next; over time however, we expect our facilities will continue to produce in line with their long-term averages, which have proven to be reliable indicators of performance.

Our risk of a generation shortfall in Brazil continues to be minimized by participation in a hydrological balancing pool administered by the government of Brazil. This program mitigates hydrology risk by assuring that all participants receive, at any particular point in time, an assured energy amount, irrespective of the actual volume of energy generated. The program reallocates energy, transferring surplus energy from those who generated an excess to those who generate less than their assured energy, up to the total generation within the pool. Periodically, low precipitation across the entire country’s system could result in a temporary reduction of generation available for sale. During these periods, we expect that a higher proportion of thermal generation would be needed to balance supply and demand in the country, potentially leading to higher overall spot market prices.

Generation from our North American pumped storage and cogeneration facilities is highly dependent on market price conditions rather than the generating capacity of the facilities. Our European pumped storage facility generates on a dispatchable basis when required by our contracts for ancillary services. Generation from our biomass facilities is dependent

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Interim Report June 30, 2020
Page 41

on the amount of sugar cane harvested in a given year. For these reasons, we do not consider a long-term average for these facilities.

Voting Agreements with Affiliates

Brookfield Renewable has entered into voting agreements with Brookfield, whereby Brookfield Renewable gained control of the entities that own certain renewable power generating facilities in the United States, Brazil, Europe and Asia. Brookfield Renewable has also entered into a voting agreement with its consortium partners in respect of the Colombian business. The voting agreements provide Brookfield Renewable the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of the relevant entities, among other things, and therefore provide Brookfield Renewable with control. Accordingly, Brookfield Renewable consolidates the accounts of these entities.

Brookfield Renewable has also entered into a voting agreement with Brookfield, whereby Brookfield Renewable gained certain rights in respect of the partnership that controls TerraForm Power and its subsidiaries. This voting agreement provides Brookfield Renewable the authority to direct the election of one member of the Board of Directors of the relevant entity, among other things, and therefore provides Brookfield Renewable with significant influence over the partnership that controls TerraForm Power. Accordingly, Brookfield Renewable equity accounts for the partnership that controls TerraForm Power.

For entities previously controlled by Brookfield Asset Management, the voting agreements entered into do not represent business combinations in accordance with IFRS 3, as all combining businesses are ultimately controlled by Brookfield Asset Management both before and after the transactions were completed. Brookfield Renewable accounts for these transactions involving entities under common control in a manner similar to a pooling of interest, which requires the presentation of pre-voting agreement financial information as if the transactions had always been in place. Refer to Note 1(r)(ii) –  Critical judgments in applying accounting policies - Common control transactions  in our December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements for our policy on accounting for transactions under common control.

PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

Segment Information

Our operations are segmented by – 1) hydroelectric, 2) wind, 3) solar, 4) storage & other (cogeneration and biomass), and 5) corporate – with hydroelectric and wind further segmented by geography (i.e., North America, Colombia, Brazil, Europe and Asia). This best reflects the way in which the CODM reviews results, manages operations and allocates resources. The Colombia segment aggregates the financial results of its hydroelectric and cogeneration facilities. The Canada segment includes the financial results of our strategic investment in Transalta Corporation. The corporate segment represents all activity performed above the individual segments for the business.

We report our results in accordance with these segments and present prior period segmented information in a consistent manner. See Note 5 - Segmented information in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

One of our primary business objectives is to generate stable and growing cash flows while minimizing risk for the benefit of all stakeholders. We monitor our performance in this regard through three key metrics — i) Net Income (Loss), ii) Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), and iii) Funds From Operations.

It is important to highlight that Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and have limitations as analytical tools. We provide additional information below on how we determine Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations. We also provide reconciliations to Net income (loss). See “Part 4 – Financial Performance Review on Proportionate Information – Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures” and “Part 6 – Selected Quarterly Information – Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures”.

Proportionate Information

Reporting to the CODM on the measures utilized to assess performance and allocate resources has been provided on a proportionate basis. Information on a proportionate basis reflects Brookfield Renewable’s share from facilities which it accounts for using consolidation and the equity method whereby Brookfield Renewable either controls or exercises significant influence or joint control over the investment, respectively. Proportionate information provides a Unitholder perspective that the CODM considers important when performing internal analyses and making strategic and operating decisions. The CODM also believes that providing proportionate information helps investors understand the impacts of decisions made by management and financial results allocable to Unitholders.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Interim Report June 30, 2020
Page 42

Proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Tables reconciling IFRS data with data presented on a proportionate basis have been disclosed. Segment revenues, other income, direct operating costs, interest expense, depreciation, current and deferred income taxes, and other are items that will differ from results presented in accordance with IFRS as these items (1) include Brookfield Renewable’s proportionate share of earnings from equity-accounted investments attributable to each of the above-noted items, and (2) exclude the proportionate share of earnings (loss) of consolidated investments not held by us apportioned to each of the above-noted items.

The presentation of proportionate results has limitations as an analytical tool, including the following:

• The amounts shown on the individual line items were derived by applying our overall economic ownership interest percentage and do not necessarily represent our legal claim to the assets and liabilities, or the revenues and expenses; and
• Other companies may calculate proportionate results differently than we do.
--- ---

Because of these limitations, our proportionate financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial statements as reported under IFRS.

Brookfield Renewable does not control those entities that have not been consolidated and as such, have been presented as equity-accounted investments in its financial statements. The presentation of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses do not represent Brookfield Renewable’s legal claim to such items, and the removal of financial statement amounts that are attributable to non-controlling interests does not extinguish Brookfield Renewable’s legal claims or exposures to such items.

Unless the context indicates or requires otherwise, information with respect to the MW attributable to Brookfield Renewable’s facilities, including development assets, is presented on a consolidated basis, including with respect to facilities whereby Brookfield Renewable either controls or jointly controls the applicable facility.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income (loss) is calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Net income (loss) is an important measure of profitability, in particular because it has a standardized meaning under IFRS. The presentation of net income (loss) on an IFRS basis for our business will often lead to the recognition of a loss even though the underlying cash flows generated by the assets are supported by strong margins and stable, long-term power purchase agreements. The primary reason for this is that accounting rules require us to recognize a significantly higher level of depreciation for our assets than we are required to reinvest in the business as sustaining capital expenditures.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure used by investors to analyze the operating performance of companies.

Brookfield Renewable uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of its operations before the effects of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, management service costs, non-controlling interests, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash gain or loss from equity-accounted investments, distributions to preferred limited partners and other typical non-recurring items. Brookfield Renewable adjusts for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and/or are not factors used by management for evaluating operating performance.

Brookfield Renewable believes that presentation of this measure will enhance an investor’s ability to evaluate our financial and operating performance on an allocable basis to Unitholders.

Funds From Operations and Funds From Operations per Unit

Funds From Operations is a non-IFRS measure used by investors to analyze net earnings from operations without the effects of certain volatile items that generally have no current financial impact or items not directly related to the performance of the business.

Brookfield Renewable uses Funds From Operations to assess the performance of the business before the effects of certain cash items (e.g. acquisition costs and other typical non-recurring cash items) and certain non-cash items (e.g. deferred income taxes, depreciation, non-cash portion of non-controlling interests, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash gain or loss from equity-accounted investments, and other non-cash items) as these are not reflective of the performance of the underlying business. In our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements we use the revaluation approach in accordance with IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, whereby depreciation is determined based on a revalued amount, thereby reducing comparability with our peers who do not report under IFRS as issued by the IASB or who do not employ

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Interim Report June 30, 2020
Page 43

the revaluation approach to measuring property, plant and equipment. We add back deferred income taxes on the basis that we do not believe this item reflects the present value of the actual tax obligations that we expect to incur over our long-term investment horizon.

Brookfield Renewable believes that analysis and presentation of Funds From Operations on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the performance of the business. Funds From Operations per Unit is not a substitute measure of performance for earnings per share and does not represent amounts available for distribution to LP Unitholders.

Funds From Operations is not intended to be representative of cash provided by operating activities or results of operations determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, this measure is not used by the CODM to assess Brookfield Renewable’s liquidity.

Proportionate Debt

Proportionate debt is presented based on the proportionate share of borrowings obligations relating to the investments of Brookfield Renewable in various portfolio businesses. The proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Proportionate debt measures are provided because management believes it assists investors and analysts in estimating the overall performance and understanding the leverage pertaining specifically to Brookfield Renewable's share of its invested capital in a given investment. When used in conjunction with proportionate Adjusted EBITDA, proportionate debt is expected to provide useful information as to how Brookfield Renewable has financed its businesses at the asset-level. Management believes that the proportionate presentation, when read in conjunction with Brookfield Renewable’ reported results under IFRS, including consolidated debt, provides a more meaningful assessment of how the operations of Brookfield Renewable are performing and capital is being managed. The presentation of proportionate debt has limitations as an analytical tool, including the following:

• Proportionate debt amounts do not represent the consolidated obligation for debt underlying a consolidated investment. If an individual project does not generate sufficient cash flows to service the entire amount of its debt payments, management may determine, in their discretion, to pay the shortfall through an equity injection to avoid defaulting on the obligation. Such a shortfall may not be apparent from or may not equal the difference between aggregate proportionate Adjusted EBITDA for all of the portfolio investments of Brookfield Renewable and aggregate proportionate debt for all of the portfolio investments of Brookfield Renewable; and
• Other companies may calculate proportionate debt differently.
--- ---

Because of these limitations, the proportionate financial information of Brookfield Renewable should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial statements of Brookfield Renewable as reported under IFRS.

For further information on these known and unknown risks, please see “Risk Factors” included in our Form 20-F and other risks and factors that are described therein.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING USE OF NON-IFRS MEASURES

This Interim Report contains references to certain proportionate information, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations, Funds From Operations per Unit and Proportionate Debt (collectively, “Brookfield Renewable’s Non-IFRS Measures”) which are not generally accepted accounting measures under IFRS and therefore may differ from definitions of proportionate information, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations, Funds From Operations per Unit, and Proportionate Debt used by other entities. In particular, our definition of Funds From Operations may differ from the definition of funds from operations used by other organizations, as well as the definition of funds from operations used by the Real Property Association of Canada and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”), in part because the NAREIT definition is based on U.S. GAAP, as opposed to IFRS. We believe that Brookfield Renewable’s Non-IFRS Measures are useful supplemental measures that may assist investors in assessing our financial performance. Brookfield Renewable’s Non-IFRS Measures should not be considered as the sole measure of our performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures reflect how we manage our business and, in our opinion, enable the reader to better understand our business. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income is presented in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis. We have also provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income in Note 5 - Segmented information in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income is presented in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

  1. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Statement of compliance

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), have been omitted or condensed. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Brookfield Renewable’s December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements. The interim consolidated statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies disclosed in the December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements.

The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods in accordance with IFRS.

The results reported in these interim consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for an entire year. The policies set out below are consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise noted.

These consolidated financial statements have been authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of Brookfield Renewable’s general partner, BRPL, on August 7, 2020.

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

References to $, C$, €, R$, COP, INR, and THB are to United States (“U.S.”) dollars, Canadian dollars, Euros, Brazilian reais, Colombian pesos, Indian Rupees, and Thai baht, respectively.

All figures are presented in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

(b) Basis of preparation

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of property, plant and equipment and certain assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value. Cost is recorded based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

Consolidation

These interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries, which are the entities over which Brookfield Renewable has control. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Non-controlling interests in the equity of Brookfield Renewable’s subsidiaries are shown separately in equity in the interim consolidated statements of financial position.

(c) Recently adopted accounting standards

Several amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2020, but do not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of Brookfield Renewable. Brookfield Renewable has not early adopted any other standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective.

  1. DISPOSAL OF ASSETS

In March 2020, Brookfield Renewable, along with its institutional partners, completed the sale of a 39 MW portfolio of solar assets in Thailand. The total consideration was THB 3,079 million ($94 million) and Brookfield Renewable’s interest in the portfolio was approximately 31%. This resulted in a loss on disposition of $12 million ($4 million net to Brookfield Renewable) recognized in the consolidated statements of income under Other. Immediately prior to the classification of the portfolio as held for sale in 2018, Brookfield Renewable performed a revaluation of the property, plant & equipment, in line with its election to apply the revaluation method and recorded a fair value uplift of $42 million. As a result of the disposition, Brookfield Renewable's portion of the accumulated revaluation surplus of $13 million post-tax was reclassified from other comprehensive income directly to equity and noted as an Other item in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Summarized financial information relating to the disposal of the Thailand portfolio is shown below:

(MILLIONS)
Proceeds $ 94
Carrying value of net assets held for sale
Assets 114
Liabilities (8 )

Loss on disposal $ (12 )

4.  RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

RISK MANAGEMENT

Brookfield Renewable`s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk (i.e., commodity price risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Brookfield Renewable uses financial instruments primarily to manage these risks.

COVID-19 pandemic has impacted business across the globe and we are monitoring its impact on our business.  While it is difficult to predict how significant the impact of COVID-19 will be, our business is highly resilient given we are an owner, operator and investor in one of the most critical sectors in the world and have a robust balance sheet with a strong investment grade rating.  We generate revenues that are predominantly backed by long-term contracts with well diversified creditworthy counterparties.  The majority of our assets can be operated from centralized control centers and our operators around the world have implemented contingency plans to ensure operations, maintenance and capital programs continue with little disruption.

There have been no other material changes in exposure to the risks Brookfield Renewable is exposed to since the December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements.

Fair value disclosures

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Fair values determined using valuation models require the use of assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates. In determining those assumptions, management looks primarily to external readily observable market inputs such as interest rate yield curves, currency rates, commodity prices and, as applicable, credit spreads.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset is the consideration that would be received in an orderly transaction between market participants, considering the highest and best use of the asset.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized into one of three hierarchy levels, described below. Each level is based on the transparency of the inputs used to measure the fair values of assets and liabilities.

Level 1 – inputs are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 – inputs, other than quoted prices in Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

(a)   Energy derivative contracts

Brookfield Renewable has entered into energy derivative contracts primarily to stabilize or eliminate the price risk on the sale of certain future power generation. Certain energy contracts are recorded in Brookfield Renewable's interim consolidated financial statements at an amount equal to fair value, using quoted market prices or, in their absence, a valuation model using both internal and third-party evidence and forecasts.

(b)   Interest rate hedges

Brookfield Renewable has entered into interest rate hedge contracts primarily to minimize exposure to interest rate fluctuations on its variable rate debt or to lock in interest rates on future debt refinancing. All interest rate hedge contracts are recorded in the interim consolidated financial statements at fair value.

(c)   Foreign exchange swaps

Brookfield Renewable has entered into foreign exchange swaps to minimize its exposure to currency fluctuations impacting its investments and earnings in foreign operations, and to fix the exchange rate on certain anticipated transactions denominated in foreign currencies.

(d)   Investments in debt and equity securities

Brookfield Renewable's investments in debt and equity securities consist of investments in publicly-quoted and non-publicly quoted securities which are recorded on the statement of financial position at fair value.

  1. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

Brookfield Renewable’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the chief operating decision maker or “CODM”) review the results of the business, manage operations, and allocate resources based on the type of technology.

Our operations are segmented by – 1) hydroelectric, 2) wind, 3) solar, 4) storage & other (cogeneration and biomass), and 5) corporate – with hydroelectric and wind further segmented by geography (i.e., North America, Colombia, Brazil, Europe and Asia). This best reflects the way in which the CODM reviews results, manages operations and allocates resources. The Colombia segment aggregates the financial results of its hydroelectric and cogeneration facilities. The Canada segment includes the financial results of our strategic investment in TransAlta Corporation ("TransAlta"). The corporate segment represents all activity performed above the individual segments for the business.

Reporting to the CODM on the measures utilized to assess performance and allocate resources is provided on a proportionate basis. Information on a proportionate basis reflects Brookfield Renewable’s share from facilities which it accounts for using consolidation and the equity method whereby Brookfield Renewable either controls or exercises significant influence or joint control over the investment, respectively. Proportionate information provides a Unitholder (holders of the GP interest, Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units, and LP Units) perspective that the CODM considers important when performing internal analyses and making strategic and operating decisions. The CODM also believes that providing proportionate information helps investors understand the impacts of decisions made by management and financial results allocable to Brookfield Renewable’s Unitholders.

Proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Tables reconciling IFRS data with data presented on a proportionate consolidation basis have been disclosed. Segment revenues, other income, direct operating costs, interest expense, depreciation, current and deferred income taxes, and other are items that will differ from results presented in accordance with IFRS as these items include Brookfield Renewable’s proportionate share of earnings from equity-accounted investments attributable to each of the above-noted items, and exclude the proportionate share of earnings (loss) of consolidated investments not held by us apportioned to each of the above-noted items.

Brookfield Renewable does not control those entities that have not been consolidated and as such, have been presented as equity-accounted investments in its consolidated financial statements. The presentation of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses does not represent Brookfield Renewable’s legal claim to such items, and the removal of financial statement amounts that are attributable to non-controlling interests does not extinguish Brookfield Renewable’s legal claims or exposures to such items.

Brookfield Renewable reports its results in accordance with these segments and presents prior period segmented information in a consistent manner.

In accordance with IFRS 8, Operating Segments, Brookfield Renewable discloses information about its reportable segments based upon the measures used by the CODM in assessing performance. Except as it relates to proportionate financial information discussed above, the accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1 – Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies. Brookfield Renewable analyzes the performance of its operating segments based on revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, and Funds From Operations. Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations are not generally accepted accounting measures under IFRS and therefore may differ from definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations used by other entities.

Brookfield Renewable uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of its operations before the effects of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, management service costs, non-controlling interests, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash gain or loss from equity-accounted investments, distributions to preferred shareholders and preferred limited partners and other typical non-recurring items.

Brookfield Renewable uses Funds From Operations to assess the performance of its operations and is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less management service costs, interest and current income taxes, which is then adjusted for the cash portion of non-controlling interests and distributions to preferred shareholders and preferred limited partners.

Medium term notes

Medium term notes are obligations of a finance subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield Renewable Partners ULC (“Finco”) (Note 19 – Subsidiary public issuers). Finco may redeem some or all of the borrowings from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the indenture. The balance is payable upon maturity, and interest on corporate borrowings is paid semi-annually. The term notes payable by Finco are unconditionally guaranteed by Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield Renewable Energy L.P. (“BRELP”) and certain other subsidiaries.

On April 3, 2020, Brookfield Renewable completed the issuance of C$175 million ($124 million) Series 11 medium term notes and C$175 million ($124 million) Series 12 medium term notes. The medium term notes were issued as a re-opening on identical terms, other than issue date and the price to the public, to the 4.25% Series 11 medium term notes and the 3.38% Series 12 medium term notes that were issued in September 2018 and 2019, respectively.

Non-recourse borrowings

Non-recourse borrowings are typically asset-specific, long-term, non-recourse borrowings denominated in the domestic currency of the subsidiary. Non-recourse borrowings in North America and Europe consist of both fixed and floating interest rate debt indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), the Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EURIBOR") and the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”). Brookfield Renewable uses interest rate swap agreements in North America and Europe to minimize its exposure to floating interest rates. Non-recourse borrowings in Brazil consist of floating interest rates of Taxa de Juros de Longo Prazo (“TJLP”), the Brazil National Bank for Economic Development’s long-term interest rate, or Interbank Deposit Certificate rate (“CDI”), plus a margin. Non-recourse borrowings in Colombia consist of both fixed and floating interest rates indexed to Indicador Bancario de Referencia rate (IBR), the Banco Central de Colombia short-term interest rate, and Colombian Consumer Price Index (IPC), Colombia inflation rate, plus a margin. Non-recourse borrowings in India consist of fixed interest rate debt. Non-recourse borrowings in China consist of floating interest rates of People's Bank of China ("PBOC").

  1. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES

Commitments

In the course of its operations, Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries have entered into agreements for the use of water, land and dams. Payment under those agreements varies with the amount of power generated. The various agreements can be renewed and are extendable up to 2089.

Together with institutional partners, Brookfield Renewable is committed to invest C$400 million in TransAlta's convertible securities in October 2020. We also agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to maintain an ownership of TransAlta common shares to 9% up to a price ceiling.

Brookfield Renewable, alongside institutional partners, entered into a commitment to invest approximately $37 million to acquire a 210 MW solar development portfolio in Brazil. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, with Brookfield Renewable expected to hold a 25% interest.

Subsequent to quarter end, Brookfield Renewable, alongside institutional partners, entered into a commitment to acquire a 1,200 MW solar development portfolio in Brazil for approximately $50 million, which are targeted for commercial operations in early 2023. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, with Brookfield Renewable expected to hold a 25% interest.

An integral part of Brookfield Renewable’s strategy is to participate with institutional investors in Brookfield-sponsored private equity funds that target acquisitions that suit Brookfield Renewable’s profile. In the normal course of business, Brookfield Renewable has made commitments to Brookfield-sponsored private equity funds to participate in these target acquisitions in the future, if and when identified.

Contingencies

Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, arbitrations and actions arising in the normal course of business. While the final outcome of such legal proceedings and actions cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of such proceedings and actions will not have a material impact on Brookfield Renewable’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Brookfield Renewable, on behalf of Brookfield Renewable’s subsidiaries, and the subsidiaries themselves have provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance. The activity on the issued letters of credit by Brookfield Renewable can be found in Note 8 – Borrowings.

Brookfield Renewable, along with institutional investors, has provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance as it relates to interests in the Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, the Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, the Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III, and the Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV. Brookfield Renewable’s subsidiaries have similarly provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance.

Letters of credit issued by Brookfield Renewable along with institutional investors and its subsidiaries were as at the following dates:

(MILLIONS) June 30, 2020 December 31, 2019
Brookfield Renewable along with institutional investors $ 48 $ 50
Brookfield Renewable's subsidiaries 248 286
$ 296 $ 336

Guarantees

In the normal course of operations, Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries execute agreements that provide for indemnification and guarantees to third parties of transactions such as business dispositions, capital project purchases, business acquisitions, and sales and purchases of assets and services. Brookfield Renewable has also agreed to indemnify its directors and certain of its officers and employees. The nature of substantially all of the indemnification undertakings prevents Brookfield Renewable from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount that Brookfield Renewable could be required to pay third parties as the agreements do not always specify a maximum amount and the amounts are dependent upon the outcome of future contingent events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be determined at this

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Interim Report June 30, 2020
Page 74

time. Historically, neither Brookfield Renewable nor its subsidiaries have made material payments under such indemnification agreements.

18. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Brookfield Renewables related party transactions are recorded at the exchange amount. Brookfield Renewables related party transactions are primarily with Brookfield Asset Management.

Brookfield Asset Management has provided a $400 million committed unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in December 2020 and the interest rate applicable on the draws is LIBOR plus up to 1.8%. During the current period, there were no draws on the committed unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield Asset Management. Brookfield Asset Management may from time to time place funds on deposit with Brookfield Renewable which are repayable on demand including any interest accrued. There were no funds placed on deposit with Brookfield Renewable in six months ended June 30, 2020 (2019: $600 million, which was fully repaid within the period).

  1. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 29, 2020, Brookfield Renewable contributed its renewable power assets in the United States, Brazil and Colombia (excluding a 10% interest in certain Brazilian and Colombian operations, which will continue to be held indirectly by Brookfield Renewable) to BEPC. On July 30, 2020, Brookfield Renewable completed a special distribution (the “special distribution”) whereby unitholders of record as of July 27, 2020 (the “Record Date”) received one class A exchangeable subordinate voting share (“BEPC exchangeable share") for every four units held. Immediately prior to the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable received BEPC exchangeable shares through a distribution by BRELP (the "BRELP" distribution) of the BEPC exchangeable shares to all of its unitholders. As a result of the BRELP Distribution, (i) Brookfield and its subsidiaries received approximately 33.1 million BEPC exchangeable shares and (ii) Brookfield Renewable received approximately 44.7 million class A shares, which it subsequently distributed to unitholders pursuant to the special distribution. Upon completion of the special distribution, (i) holders of units held approximately 42.8% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares (ii) Brookfield and its affiliates held approximately 57.2% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares, and (iii) a subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable owned all of the issued and outstanding class B multiple voting shares, or class B shares, which represent a 75.0% voting interest in BEPC, and all of the issued and outstanding class C non-voting shares, or class C shares, of BEPC, which entitle Brookfield Renewable to the residual value in BEPC after payment in full of the amount due to holders of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares. Brookfield Renewable directly and indirectly controlled BEPC prior to the special distribution and continues to control BEPC subsequent to the special distribution through its interests in the company. The BEPC exchangeable shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “BEPC”.

The thresholds used for the calculation of incentive distribution rights that Brookfield is entitled to as the owner of the 1% GP interest in BRELP will be reduced on the completion of the special distribution to give effect to the special distribution, to $0.300 and $0.338, respectively.

On July 31, 2020, shortly following the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable acquired all of the outstanding Class A common stock of TerraForm Power, other than the approximately 62% already owned by Brookfield Renewable and its affiliates, through a series of transactions (the "TerraForm Power acquisition"). Pursuant to the TerraForm Power acquisition, each holder of public shares of TerraForm Power was entitled to receive 0.47625 of a BEPC exchangeable share or, at the election of the holder, a LP Unit. As a result of the TerraForm Power acquisition, holders of public shares of TerraForm Power exchanged their shares for 37,035,241 exchangeable units of BEPC and 4,034,469 LP Units. After giving effect to the special distribution and the TERP acquisition, Brookfield and its affiliates, including Brookfield Renewable, through its ownership of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares, holds an approximate 84.7% voting interest in BEPC. Holders of BEPC exchangeable shares, excluding Brookfield and its affiliates and Brookfield Renewable, hold an approximate 15.3% aggregate voting interest in BEPC.

Concurrently with the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Renewable entered into a voting agreement with Brookfield whereby Brookfield agreed to provide Brookfield Renewable with a number of voting rights, including the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of the Brookfield entity that owns shares in TerraForm Power. As a result, Brookfield Renewable controls and consolidates TerraForm Power.

Following the closing of the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Asset Management owns, directly and indirectly, 220,030,707 LP Units and Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units and BEPC exchangeable shares, representing approximately 51.5% of Brookfield Renewable on a fully-exchanged basis and the remaining approximately 48.5% is held by public investors.

  1. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Statement of compliance

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), have been omitted or condensed. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Brookfield Renewable’s December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements. The interim consolidated statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies disclosed in the December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements.

The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods in accordance with IFRS.

The results reported in these interim consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for an entire year. The policies set out below are consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise noted.

These consolidated financial statements have been authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of Brookfield Renewable’s general partner, BRPL, on August 7, 2020.

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

References to $, C$, €, R$, COP, INR, and THB are to United States (“U.S.”) dollars, Canadian dollars, Euros, Brazilian reais, Colombian pesos, Indian Rupees, and Thai baht, respectively.

All figures are presented in millions of U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

(b) Basis of preparation

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for the revaluation of property, plant and equipment and certain assets and liabilities which have been measured at fair value. Cost is recorded based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

Consolidation

These interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries, which are the entities over which Brookfield Renewable has control. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Non-controlling interests in the equity of Brookfield Renewable’s subsidiaries are shown separately in equity in the interim consolidated statements of financial position.

(c) Recently adopted accounting standards

Several amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2020, but do not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of Brookfield Renewable. Brookfield Renewable has not early adopted any other standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective.

  1. DISPOSAL OF ASSETS

In March 2020, Brookfield Renewable, along with its institutional partners, completed the sale of a 39 MW portfolio of solar assets in Thailand. The total consideration was THB 3,079 million ($94 million) and Brookfield Renewable’s interest in the portfolio was approximately 31%. This resulted in a loss on disposition of $12 million ($4 million net to Brookfield Renewable) recognized in the consolidated statements of income under Other. Immediately prior to the classification of the portfolio as held for sale in 2018, Brookfield Renewable performed a revaluation of the property, plant & equipment, in line with its election to apply the revaluation method and recorded a fair value uplift of $42 million. As a result of the disposition, Brookfield Renewable's portion of the accumulated revaluation surplus of $13 million post-tax was reclassified from other comprehensive income directly to equity and noted as an Other item in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Summarized financial information relating to the disposal of the Thailand portfolio is shown below:

(MILLIONS)
Proceeds $ 94
Carrying value of net assets held for sale
Assets 114
Liabilities (8 )

4.  RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

RISK MANAGEMENT

Brookfield Renewable`s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market risk (i.e., commodity price risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Brookfield Renewable uses financial instruments primarily to manage these risks.

COVID-19 pandemic has impacted business across the globe and we are monitoring its impact on our business.  While it is difficult to predict how significant the impact of COVID-19 will be, our business is highly resilient given we are an owner, operator and investor in one of the most critical sectors in the world and have a robust balance sheet with a strong investment grade rating.  We generate revenues that are predominantly backed by long-term contracts with well diversified creditworthy counterparties.  The majority of our assets can be operated from centralized control centers and our operators around the world have implemented contingency plans to ensure operations, maintenance and capital programs continue with little disruption.

There have been no other material changes in exposure to the risks Brookfield Renewable is exposed to since the December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements.

Fair value disclosures

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Fair values determined using valuation models require the use of assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates. In determining those assumptions, management looks primarily to external readily observable market inputs such as interest rate yield curves, currency rates, commodity prices and, as applicable, credit spreads.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset is the consideration that would be received in an orderly transaction between market participants, considering the highest and best use of the asset.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized into one of three hierarchy levels, described below. Each level is based on the transparency of the inputs used to measure the fair values of assets and liabilities.

Level 1 – inputs are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 – inputs, other than quoted prices in Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

(b)   Interest rate hedges

Brookfield Renewable has entered into interest rate hedge contracts primarily to minimize exposure to interest rate fluctuations on its variable rate debt or to lock in interest rates on future debt refinancing. All interest rate hedge contracts are recorded in the interim consolidated financial statements at fair value.

(c)   Foreign exchange swaps

Brookfield Renewable has entered into foreign exchange swaps to minimize its exposure to currency fluctuations impacting its investments and earnings in foreign operations, and to fix the exchange rate on certain anticipated transactions denominated in foreign currencies.

(d)   Investments in debt and equity securities

Brookfield Renewable's investments in debt and equity securities consist of investments in publicly-quoted and non-publicly quoted securities which are recorded on the statement of financial position at fair value.

  1. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

Brookfield Renewable’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the chief operating decision maker or “CODM”) review the results of the business, manage operations, and allocate resources based on the type of technology.

Our operations are segmented by – 1) hydroelectric, 2) wind, 3) solar, 4) storage & other (cogeneration and biomass), and 5) corporate – with hydroelectric and wind further segmented by geography (i.e., North America, Colombia, Brazil, Europe and Asia). This best reflects the way in which the CODM reviews results, manages operations and allocates resources. The Colombia segment aggregates the financial results of its hydroelectric and cogeneration facilities. The Canada segment includes the financial results of our strategic investment in TransAlta Corporation ("TransAlta"). The corporate segment represents all activity performed above the individual segments for the business.

Reporting to the CODM on the measures utilized to assess performance and allocate resources is provided on a proportionate basis. Information on a proportionate basis reflects Brookfield Renewable’s share from facilities which it accounts for using consolidation and the equity method whereby Brookfield Renewable either controls or exercises significant influence or joint control over the investment, respectively. Proportionate information provides a Unitholder (holders of the GP interest, Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units, and LP Units) perspective that the CODM considers important when performing internal analyses and making strategic and operating decisions. The CODM also believes that providing proportionate information helps investors understand the impacts of decisions made by management and financial results allocable to Brookfield Renewable’s Unitholders.

Proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Tables reconciling IFRS data with data presented on a proportionate consolidation basis have been disclosed. Segment revenues, other income, direct operating costs, interest expense, depreciation, current and deferred income taxes, and other are items that will differ from results presented in accordance with IFRS as these items include Brookfield Renewable’s proportionate share of earnings from equity-accounted investments attributable to each of the above-noted items, and exclude the proportionate share of earnings (loss) of consolidated investments not held by us apportioned to each of the above-noted items.

Brookfield Renewable does not control those entities that have not been consolidated and as such, have been presented as equity-accounted investments in its consolidated financial statements. The presentation of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses does not represent Brookfield Renewable’s legal claim to such items, and the removal of financial statement amounts that are attributable to non-controlling interests does not extinguish Brookfield Renewable’s legal claims or exposures to such items.

Brookfield Renewable reports its results in accordance with these segments and presents prior period segmented information in a consistent manner.

In accordance with IFRS 8, Operating Segments, Brookfield Renewable discloses information about its reportable segments based upon the measures used by the CODM in assessing performance. Except as it relates to proportionate financial information discussed above, the accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1 – Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies. Brookfield Renewable analyzes the performance of its operating segments based on revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, and Funds From Operations. Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations are not generally accepted accounting measures under IFRS and therefore may differ from definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations used by other entities.

Brookfield Renewable uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of its operations before the effects of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, management service costs, non-controlling interests, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash gain or loss from equity-accounted investments, distributions to preferred shareholders and preferred limited partners and other typical non-recurring items.

Brookfield Renewable uses Funds From Operations to assess the performance of its operations and is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less management service costs, interest and current income taxes, which is then adjusted for the cash portion of non-controlling interests and distributions to preferred shareholders and preferred limited partners.

Medium term notes

Medium term notes are obligations of a finance subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield Renewable Partners ULC (“Finco”) (Note 19 – Subsidiary public issuers). Finco may redeem some or all of the borrowings from time to time, pursuant to the terms of the indenture. The balance is payable upon maturity, and interest on corporate borrowings is paid semi-annually. The term notes payable by Finco are unconditionally guaranteed by Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield Renewable Energy L.P. (“BRELP”) and certain other subsidiaries.

On April 3, 2020, Brookfield Renewable completed the issuance of C$175 million ($124 million) Series 11 medium term notes and C$175 million ($124 million) Series 12 medium term notes. The medium term notes were issued as a re-opening on identical terms, other than issue date and the price to the public, to the 4.25% Series 11 medium term notes and the 3.38% Series 12 medium term notes that were issued in September 2018 and 2019, respectively.

Non-recourse borrowings

Non-recourse borrowings are typically asset-specific, long-term, non-recourse borrowings denominated in the domestic currency of the subsidiary. Non-recourse borrowings in North America and Europe consist of both fixed and floating interest rate debt indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), the Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EURIBOR") and the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”). Brookfield Renewable uses interest rate swap agreements in North America and Europe to minimize its exposure to floating interest rates. Non-recourse borrowings in Brazil consist of floating interest rates of Taxa de Juros de Longo Prazo (“TJLP”), the Brazil National Bank for Economic Development’s long-term interest rate, or Interbank Deposit Certificate rate (“CDI”), plus a margin. Non-recourse borrowings in Colombia consist of both fixed and floating interest rates indexed to Indicador Bancario de Referencia rate (IBR), the Banco Central de Colombia short-term interest rate, and Colombian Consumer Price Index (IPC), Colombia inflation rate, plus a margin. Non-recourse borrowings in India consist of fixed interest rate debt. Non-recourse borrowings in China consist of floating interest rates of People's Bank of China ("PBOC").

  1. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES

Commitments

In the course of its operations, Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries have entered into agreements for the use of water, land and dams. Payment under those agreements varies with the amount of power generated. The various agreements can be renewed and are extendable up to 2089.

Together with institutional partners, Brookfield Renewable is committed to invest C$400 million in TransAlta's convertible securities in October 2020. We also agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to maintain an ownership of TransAlta common shares to 9% up to a price ceiling.

Brookfield Renewable, alongside institutional partners, entered into a commitment to invest approximately $37 million to acquire a 210 MW solar development portfolio in Brazil. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, with Brookfield Renewable expected to hold a 25% interest.

Subsequent to quarter end, Brookfield Renewable, alongside institutional partners, entered into a commitment to acquire a 1,200 MW solar development portfolio in Brazil for approximately $50 million, which are targeted for commercial operations in early 2023. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, with Brookfield Renewable expected to hold a 25% interest.

An integral part of Brookfield Renewable’s strategy is to participate with institutional investors in Brookfield-sponsored private equity funds that target acquisitions that suit Brookfield Renewable’s profile. In the normal course of business, Brookfield Renewable has made commitments to Brookfield-sponsored private equity funds to participate in these target acquisitions in the future, if and when identified.

Contingencies

Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, arbitrations and actions arising in the normal course of business. While the final outcome of such legal proceedings and actions cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of management that the resolution of such proceedings and actions will not have a material impact on Brookfield Renewable’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Brookfield Renewable, on behalf of Brookfield Renewable’s subsidiaries, and the subsidiaries themselves have provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance. The activity on the issued letters of credit by Brookfield Renewable can be found in Note 8 – Borrowings.

Brookfield Renewable, along with institutional investors, has provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance as it relates to interests in the Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, the Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, the Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III, and the Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV. Brookfield Renewable’s subsidiaries have similarly provided letters of credit, which include, but are not limited to, guarantees for debt service reserves, capital reserves, construction completion and performance.

Letters of credit issued by Brookfield Renewable along with institutional investors and its subsidiaries were as at the following dates:

(MILLIONS) June 30, 2020 December 31, 2019
Brookfield Renewable along with institutional investors $ 48 $ 50
Brookfield Renewable's subsidiaries 248 286
$ 296 $ 336

Guarantees

In the normal course of operations, Brookfield Renewable and its subsidiaries execute agreements that provide for indemnification and guarantees to third parties of transactions such as business dispositions, capital project purchases, business acquisitions, and sales and purchases of assets and services. Brookfield Renewable has also agreed to indemnify its directors and certain of its officers and employees. The nature of substantially all of the indemnification undertakings prevents Brookfield Renewable from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount that Brookfield Renewable could be required to pay third parties as the agreements do not always specify a maximum amount and the amounts are dependent upon the outcome of future contingent events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be determined at this

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Q2 2020 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes June 30, 2020
Page 28

time. Historically, neither Brookfield Renewable nor its subsidiaries have made material payments under such indemnification agreements.

18. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Brookfield Renewables related party transactions are recorded at the exchange amount. Brookfield Renewables related party transactions are primarily with Brookfield Asset Management.

Brookfield Asset Management has provided a $400 million committed unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in December 2020 and the interest rate applicable on the draws is LIBOR plus up to 1.8%. During the current period, there were no draws on the committed unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield Asset Management. Brookfield Asset Management may from time to time place funds on deposit with Brookfield Renewable which are repayable on demand including any interest accrued. There were no funds placed on deposit with Brookfield Renewable in six months ended June 30, 2020 (2019: $600 million, which was fully repaid within the period). There was no interest expense on the Brookfield Asset Management revolving credit facility or deposit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 (2019: nil and $3 million).

  1. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 29, 2020, Brookfield Renewable contributed its renewable power assets in the United States, Brazil and Colombia (excluding a 10% interest in certain Brazilian and Colombian operations, which will continue to be held indirectly by Brookfield Renewable) to BEPC. On July 30, 2020, Brookfield Renewable completed a special distribution (the “special distribution”) whereby unitholders of record as of July 27, 2020 (the “Record Date”) received one class A exchangeable subordinate voting share (“BEPC exchangeable share") for every four units held. Immediately prior to the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable received BEPC exchangeable shares through a distribution by BRELP (the "BRELP" distribution) of the BEPC exchangeable shares to all of its unitholders. As a result of the BRELP Distribution, (i) Brookfield and its subsidiaries received approximately 33.1 million BEPC exchangeable shares and (ii) Brookfield Renewable received approximately 44.7 million class A shares, which it subsequently distributed to unitholders pursuant to the special distribution. Upon completion of the special distribution, (i) holders of units held approximately 42.8% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares (ii) Brookfield and its affiliates held approximately 57.2% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares, and (iii) a subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable owned all of the issued and outstanding class B multiple voting shares, or class B shares, which represent a 75.0% voting interest in BEPC, and all of the issued and outstanding class C non-voting shares, or class C shares, of BEPC, which entitle Brookfield Renewable to the residual value in BEPC after payment in full of the amount due to holders of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares. Brookfield Renewable directly and indirectly controlled BEPC prior to the special distribution and continues to control BEPC subsequent to the special distribution through its interests in the company. The BEPC exchangeable shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “BEPC”.

The thresholds used for the calculation of incentive distribution rights that Brookfield is entitled to as the owner of the 1% GP interest in BRELP will be reduced on the completion of the special distribution to give effect to the special distribution, to $0.300 and $0.338, respectively.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Q2 2020 Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes June 30, 2020

On July 31, 2020, shortly following the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable acquired all of the outstanding Class A common stock of TerraForm Power, other than the approximately 62% already owned by Brookfield Renewable and its affiliates, through a series of transactions (the "TerraForm Power acquisition"). Pursuant to the TerraForm Power acquisition, each holder of public shares of TerraForm Power was entitled to receive 0.47625 of a BEPC exchangeable share or, at the election of the holder, a LP Unit. As a result of the TerraForm Power acquisition, holders of public shares of TerraForm Power exchanged their shares for 37,035,241 exchangeable units of BEPC and 4,034,469 LP Units. After giving effect to the special distribution and the TERP acquisition, Brookfield and its affiliates, including Brookfield Renewable, through its ownership of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares, holds an approximate 84.7% voting interest in BEPC. Holders of BEPC exchangeable shares, excluding Brookfield and its affiliates and Brookfield Renewable, hold an approximate 15.3% aggregate voting interest in BEPC.

Concurrently with the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Renewable entered into a voting agreement with Brookfield whereby Brookfield agreed to provide Brookfield Renewable with a number of voting rights, including the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of the Brookfield entity that owns shares in TerraForm Power. As a result, Brookfield Renewable controls and consolidates TerraForm Power.

Following the closing of the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Asset Management owns, directly and indirectly, 220,030,707 LP Units and Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units and BEPC exchangeable shares, representing approximately 51.5% of Brookfield Renewable on a fully-exchanged basis and the remaining approximately 48.5% is held by public investors.

Operations

We delivered Funds From Operations of $232 million or $0.75 per unit, which represents a 1% increase from the prior year as our operations benefited from:

• Higher margins due to realization of margin enhancing initiatives across our business;
• Relatively higher realized prices in Colombia, Brazil and Canada on the back of inflation escalation and our re-contracting and commercial initiatives;
--- ---
• Contributions from growth through both acquisitions and development activities; and
--- ---
• Offset by lower generation, primarily at our hydroelectric facilities in the northeast United States and Colombia (14% below long-term average and 23% lower than prior year generation on a same-store basis)
--- ---

After deducting non-cash depreciation, net loss attributable to Unitholders for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $44 million or $0.14 per LP Unit, compared to net income of $17 million or $0.05 per LP Unit in the prior year.

Continued to focus on extending our contract profile as we completed the following:

• In Colombia, we secured eight inflation-indexed contracts for 288 GWh/year, including individual contracts with up to seven years in duration
• In Brazil, we entered into nine new contracts to deliver 144 GWh/year, including individual contracts with up to five years in duration
--- ---

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Remain well capitalized and backed by a resilient balance sheet:

• Liquidity position remains robust, with close to $3.4 billion of total available liquidity, no material maturities over the next five years and a strong investment grade balance sheet (BBB+)
• Capitalized on the low interest rate environment and sourced liquidity from diverse funding levers
--- ---
◦ Secured over $1.1 billion of investment-grade non-recourse financings across our diverse portfolio
--- ---
◦ Completed the issuance of approximately C$350 million of ten-year corporate green bonds at approximately 3.5%
--- ---
• So far this year, we generated close to $500 million of proceeds ($85 million net to BEP) from capital recycling activities
--- ---

Growth and Development

Subsequent to quarter-end, we completed the special distribution of class A exchangeable subordinate voting shares of Brookfield Renewable Corporation (“BEPC”). The holders of Brookfield Renewable’s limited partnership units of record as of July 27, 2020 received one (1) Share of BEPC for every four (4) BEP units held, or 0.25 Shares for each BEP unit.

Following the special distribution of BEPC shares, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding Class A common stock of Terraform Power, Inc. (“TerraForm Power”), other than the approximately 62% already owned by Brookfield Renewable and its affiliates. TerraForm Power stockholders received BEPC shares or, at their election, BEP units as consideration.

Subsequent to quarter-end, we, together with our institutional partners, entered into an agreement to acquire a 1,200 MW construction ready solar development project in Brazil with a target date for commercial operation in early 2023.

Completed, together with our institutional and joint venture partners, the commissioning of almost 100 MW of development projects.

Continued to progress our development pipeline:

• Continued to advance the construction of 2,400 MW of hydroelectric, wind, pumped storage, solar PV and rooftop solar development projects. These projects are expected to be commissioned between 2020 and 2023 and to generate annualized Funds From Operations net to Brookfield Renewable of approximately $53 million.

All values are in US Dollars. Variance Analysis For The Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

Revenues totaling $651 million represents a decrease of $136 million over the prior year. On a same store, constant currency basis, revenues decreased $72 million, primarily due to below average hydrology conditions in the United States compared to prior year where we experienced higher than average generation (17% higher than long-term average) as well as low system-wide hydrology conditions in Colombia (66% of long-term average), partially offset by higher average realized revenue per MWh which benefited from inflation indexation, re-contracting initiatives and favorable generation mix. Recently acquired and commissioned facilities contributed 282 GWh and $18 million to revenues which was more than offset by recently completed asset sales that reduced generation by 170 GWh and revenues by $21 million.

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the prior period, primarily against the Brazilian reais and Colombian peso, reduced revenues by approximately $61 million, which was partially offset by a $47 million favorable foreign exchange impact on our operating, interest and depreciation expense for the quarter.

Direct operating costs totaling $248 million represents a decrease of $4 million over the prior year due to cost-saving initiatives across our business and the impact of foreign exchange movements noted above, partially offset by additional costs from growth from our recently acquired and commissioned facilities.

Management service costs totaling $36 million represents an increase of $13 million over the prior year due to the growth of our business.

Interest expense totaling $154 million represents a decrease of $24 million over the prior year due to the benefit of recent refinancing activities that reduced our average cost of borrowing and the foreign exchange movements noted above.

Share of loss from equity-accounted investments totaling $15 million represents a decrease of $15 million driven by higher non-cash depreciation expense due to the growth of our portfolio.

Income tax recovery totaled $13 million compared to an income tax expense of $29 million in the prior year due primarily to a decrease in net income before income taxes due to the above noted items.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders totaled $44 million compared to a net income attributable to Unitholders of $17 million in the prior year due to the above noted items.

Variance Analysis For The Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

Revenues totaling $1,443 million represents a decrease of $169 million over the prior year. On a same store, constant currency basis, revenues decreased $52 million due to below average hydrology conditions in Colombia and North America, partially offset by higher average realized revenue per MWh which benefited from inflation indexation, re-contracting initiatives and favorable generation mix. Recently acquired and commissioned facilities contributed 529 GWh and $35 million to revenues which was more than offset by recently completed asset sales that reduced generation by 381 GWh and revenues by $50 million.

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the prior period, primarily against the Brazilian reais and Colombian peso, reduced revenues by approximately $102 million, which was partially offset by a $77 million favorable foreign exchange impact on our operating, interest and depreciation expense for the quarter.

Direct operating costs totaling $509 million represents an increase of $3 million over the prior year due to cost-saving initiatives across our business and the impact of foreign exchange movements noted above being more than offset by higher power purchases in Colombia, which are passed through to our customers, and additional costs due to growth from our recently acquired and commissioned facilities.

Management service costs totaling $67 million represents an increase of $23 million over the prior year due to the growth of our business.

Interest expense totaling $316 million represents a decrease of $35 million over the prior year due to the benefit of recent refinancing activities that reduced our average cost of borrowing and the foreign exchange movements noted above.

Share of loss from equity-accounted investments totaling $31 million compared to earnings from equity-accounted investments totaling $32 million in the prior year represents a decrease of $63 million driven by higher non-cash depreciation expense due to the growth of our portfolio and deferred tax expenses, as the prior year benefited from a deferred tax recovery relating to the recognition of operating loss carryforwards.

Income tax expense of $5 million represents a decrease of $68 million due primarily to a decrease in net income before income taxes due to the above noted items.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders totaled $26 million compared to a net income attributable to Unitholders of $60 million in the prior year due to the above noted items.

£ 0.81 0.75
COP 3,759 3,277

All values are in US Dollars.

Our balance sheet remains strong and reflects the stable nature of the business and our continued growth.

Assets held for sale

Assets held for sale totaled $170 million as at June 30, 2020 compared to $352 million as at December 31, 2019. The $182 million decrease was primarily attributable to the completed sale of our solar portfolio in Thailand during the period. The remaining assets held for sale at June 30, 2020 correspond to a 33 MW solar asset in South Africa and 19 MW of solar assets in Malaysia.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment totaled $28.5 billion as at June 30, 2020 compared to $30.7 billion as at December 31, 2019. The $2.2 billion decrease was primarily attributable to the impact of foreign exchange due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar, which decreased property, plant and equipment by $2.2 billion and depreciation expense associated with property, plant and equipment of $398 million. The decrease was partially offset by the acquisition of 47 MW of operating solar capacity in India and 278 MW of solar development projects in Brazil during the first quarter of 2020 and our continued investments in the development of power generating assets and our sustaining capital expenditures, which increased property, plant and equipment by $154 million in aggregate. During the second quarter, we exercised our option to buy out the lease on our 192 MW hydroelectric facility in Louisiana and recognized a $247 million increase to the value of our corresponding property, plant and equipment.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Brookfield Renewable's related party transactions are in the normal course of business, and are recorded at the exchange amount. Brookfield Renewable's related party transactions are primarily with Brookfield Asset Management.

Brookfield Renewable sells electricity to Brookfield through long-term power purchase agreements, or provides fixed price guarantees to provide contracted cash flow and reduce Brookfield Renewable’s exposure to electricity prices in deregulated power markets.

In 2011, on formation of Brookfield Renewable, Brookfield transferred certain development projects to Brookfield Renewable for no upfront consideration but is entitled to receive variable consideration on commercial operation or sale of these projects.

Brookfield Renewable has also entered into a number of voting agreements with Brookfield whereby Brookfield, as a managing member of entities related to Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III and Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV, in which Brookfield Renewable holds investments in power generating operations with institutional partners, agreed to provide to Brookfield Renewable the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of such entities. As a result, Brookfield Renewable controls and consolidates such investments.

Brookfield Renewable participates with institutional investors in Brookfield Americas Infrastructure Fund, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund II, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund III, Brookfield Infrastructure Fund IV and Brookfield Infrastructure Debt Fund (“Private Funds”), each of which is a Brookfield sponsored fund, and in connection therewith, Brookfield Renewable, together with our institutional investors, has access to short-term financing using the Private Funds’ credit facilities.

Brookfield Asset Management has provided a $400 million committed unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in December 2020 and the interest rate applicable on the draws is LIBOR plus up to 1.8%. During the current period there were no draws on the committed unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield Asset Management. Brookfield Asset Management may from time to time place funds on deposit with Brookfield Renewable which are repayable on demand including any interest accrued. There were no funds placed on deposit with Brookfield Renewable during the six months ended June 30, 2020 (2019: $600 million, which was fully repaid during the period). There was no interest expense on the Brookfield Asset Management revolving credit facility or deposit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively (2019: nil and $3 million, respectively).

The following table reflects the related party agreements and transactions in the unaudited interim consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020:

EQUITY

General partnership interest in a holding subsidiary held by Brookfield

Brookfield, as the owner of the 1% GP interest in BRELP, is entitled to regular distributions plus an incentive distribution based on the amount by which quarterly LP Unit distributions exceed specified target levels. As at June 30, 2020, to the extent that LP Unit distributions exceed $0.375 per LP Unit per quarter, the incentive is 15% of distributions above this threshold. To the extent that LP Unit distributions exceed $0.4225 per LP Unit per quarter, the incentive distribution is equal to 25% of distributions above this threshold. Incentive distributions of $15 million and $31 million were declared during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively (2019: $12 million and $25 million).

Preferred limited partners' equity

During the first quarter of 2020, Brookfield Renewable issued 8,000,000 Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units, Series 17 (the “Series 17 Preferred Units”) at a price of $25 per unit for gross proceeds of $200 million. The holders of the Series 17 Preferred Units are entitled to receive a cumulative quarterly fixed distribution yielding 5.25%.

The preferred limited partners’ equity units do not have a fixed maturity date and are not redeemable at the option of the holders. As at June 30, 2020, none of the preferred limited partners’ equity units have been redeemed by Brookfield Renewable.

In July 2020, the Toronto Stock Exchange accepted notice of Brookfield Renewable's intention to renew the normal course issuer bid in connection with the outstanding Class A Preferred Limited Partnership Units for another year to July 8, 2021, or earlier should the repurchases be completed prior to such date. Under this normal course issuer bid, Brookfield Renewable is permitted to repurchase up to 10% of the total public float for each respective series of its Class A Preference Units. Unitholders may receive a copy of the notice, free of charge, by contacting Brookfield Renewable. No shares were repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Limited partners' equity

As at June 30, 2020, Brookfield Asset Management owns, directly and indirectly, 175,491,567 LP Units and Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units, representing approximately 57% of Brookfield Renewable on a fully-exchanged basis and the remaining approximately 43% is held by public investors.

During the second quarter of 2020, certain affiliates of Brookfield Asset Management completed a secondary offering of 10,236,000 LP Units at a price of $48.85 per LP Unit, for gross proceeds of $500 million. Brookfield Renewable did not sell LP Units in the offering and will not receive any of the proceeds from the offering of LP Units.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Brookfield Renewable issued 30,458 LP Units and 69,636 LP Units, respectively (2019: 54,749 LP Units and 105,248 LP units, respectively) under the distribution reinvestment plan at a total value of $2 million and $3 million, respectively (2019: $1 million and $3 million, respectively).

In December 2019, Brookfield Renewable commenced a normal course issuer bid in connection with its LP Units. Under this normal course issuer bid Brookfield Renewable is permitted to repurchase up to 8.9 million LP Units, representing approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding LP Units, for capital management purposes. The bid will expire on December 11, 2020, or earlier should Brookfield Renewable complete its repurchases prior to such date. There were no LP units repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

North America

Funds From Operations at our North American business were $145 million versus $168 million in the prior year as the benefits from inflation indexation and cost reduction initiatives were more than offset by lower generation, primarily in the northeast United States, that was 3% below long-term average and 16% lower than prior year where we experienced very strong generation (15% above long-term average) and lower average revenue per MWh in the United States due primarily to generation mix.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased $69 million over the prior year primarily due to the above noted decrease to Funds From Operations and lower unrealized gains on our revenue hedging activities.

Brazil

Funds From Operations at our Brazilian business were $29 million versus $33 million in the prior year. On a local currency basis, Funds From Operations increased versus the prior year due to the benefits of cost saving initiatives and higher contracted pricing as a result of inflation indexation and re-contracting initiatives that were partly offset by lower generation relative to the prior year. These benefits were more than offset by the weakening of the Brazilian reais versus the U.S. dollar.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased $7 million over the prior year driven by the above noted decrease in Funds From Operations.

Colombia

Funds From Operations at our Colombian business were $19 million versus $25 million in the prior year. We benefited from our cost reduction initiatives and a 43% increase in average revenue per MWh as a result of inflation indexation, re-contracting initiatives and favorable market prices realized on our uncontracted volumes, which were impacted by low system-wide hydrology (66% of long-term average). The increase was more than offset by lower generation and the weakening of the Colombian peso versus the U.S. dollar.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased by $6 million over the prior year primarily due to the above noted decrease in Funds From Operations.

North America

Funds From Operations at our North American business were $29 million versus $23 million in the prior year due primarily to the benefit from our cost reduction and refinancing initiatives.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders decreased by $11 million primarily due to the above noted increase in Funds From Operations.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Management’s Discussion and Analysis June 30, 2020
Page 12

Europe

Funds From Operations at our European business were $10 million versus $11 million in the prior year due to the sale of our Northern Ireland and certain Portuguese assets ($2 million and 39 GWh). On a same store basis, Funds From Operations were higher than the prior year as higher average revenues per MWh due to inflation indexation of our contracts and cost reduction initiatives were partially offset by lower wind resource.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders decreased by $2 million over the prior year as the above noted decrease in Funds From Operations was more than offset by lower non-cash depreciation as a result of the sale of the above noted assets.

Brazil

Funds From Operations at our Brazilian business of $5 million versus $4 million in the prior year. On a local currency basis, Funds from Operations was higher than the prior year due to inflation indexation of our contracts and cost saving initiatives. The increase was partially offset by the weakening of the Brazilian reais versus the U.S. dollar.

Net income attributable to Unitholders decreased $4 million versus the prior year due to higher non-cash accretion expenses.

Asia

Funds From Operations at our Asian business were $4 million versus $1 million in the prior year, due to the contribution from growth following the acquisition in the prior year of a 210 MW wind facility in India and a 200 MW wind portfolio in China ($3 million and 60 GWh). On a same store basis, our assets continue to perform in line with expectation and consistent with prior year.

Net income attributable to Unitholders was $2 million, consistent with the prior year as the above noted increase in Funds From Operations was offset by higher non-cash depreciation expenses due to growth.

SOLAR OPERATIONS ON PROPORTIONATE BASIS

The following table presents our proportionate results for solar operations for the three months ended June 30:

Funds From Operations at our solar business were $37 million versus $27 million in the prior year due to the contribution from acquisitions, net of disposals ($7 million and 134 GWh) and gain from the sale of a solar development project in the United States. These increases were partially offset by lower realized market prices.

Net loss attributable to Unitholders at our solar business was $6 million versus net income attributable to Unitholders of $4 million in the prior year as the above noted increase in Funds From Operations was more than offset by unrealized gains on our interest rate hedging activities that benefited the prior year.

CONTRACT PROFILE

We operate the business on a largely contracted basis to provide a high degree of predictability in Funds From Operations. We maintain a long-term view that electricity prices and the demand for electricity from renewable sources will rise due to a growing level of acceptance around climate change, the legislated requirements in some areas to diversify away from fossil fuel based generation and because they are becoming increasingly cost competitive.

In Brazil and Colombia, we also expect power prices will continue to be supported by the need to build new supply over the medium-to-long term to serve growing demand. In these markets, contracting for power is the only current mechanism to buy and sell power, and therefore we would expect to capture rising prices as we re-contract our power over the medium-term.

The following table sets out our contracts over the next five years for generation output in North America, Europe and certain other countries, assuming long-term average on a proportionate basis. The table excludes Brazil and Colombia, where we would expect the energy associated with maturing contracts to be re-contracted in the normal course given the construct of the respective power markets. In these countries we currently have a contracted profile of approximately 85% and 70%, respectively, of the long-term average and we would expect to maintain this going forward. Overall, our portfolio has a weighted-average remaining contract duration of 15 years on a proportionate basis.

Weighted-average remaining contract durations on a proportionate basis are 16 years in North America, 14 years in Europe, 9 years in Brazil, 3 years in Colombia and 18 years across our remaining jurisdictions.

In North America, over the next five years, a number of contracts will expire at our hydroelectric facilities. Based on current market prices for energy and ancillary products, we do not foresee a negative impact to cash flows from contracts expiring over the next five years.

In our Brazilian and Colombian portfolios, we continue to focus on securing long-term contracts while maintaining a certain percentage of uncontracted generation to mitigate hydrology risk.

The majority of Brookfield Renewable’s long-term power purchase agreements within our North American and European businesses are with investment-grade rated or creditworthy counterparties. The economic exposure of our contracted generation on a proportionate basis is distributed as follows: power authorities (42%), distribution companies (24%), industrial users (18%) and Brookfield (16%).

PART 5 – LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

CAPITALIZATION

A key element of our financing strategy is to raise the majority of our debt in the form of asset-specific, non-recourse borrowings at our subsidiaries on an investment-grade basis. On a consolidated basis, substantially all of our debt is either investment grade rated or sized to investment grade and approximately 80% of debt is non-recourse.

The following table summarizes our capitalization:

We operate with sufficient liquidity to enable us to fund growth initiatives, capital expenditures, distributions and withstand sudden adverse changes in economic circumstances or short-term fluctuations in generation. We maintain a strong, investment grade balance sheet characterized by a conservative capital structure, access to multiple funding levers including a focus on capital recycling on an opportunistic basis, and diverse sources of capital. Principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, our credit facilities, up-financings on non-recourse borrowings and proceeds from the issuance of various securities through public markets.

BORROWINGS

The composition of debt obligations, overall maturity profile, and average interest rates associated with our borrowings and credit facilities on a proportionate basis is presented in the following table:

In the judgment of management, none of the estimates outlined in Note 1 – Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are considered critical accounting estimates as defined in Canadian National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations with the exception of the estimates related to the valuation of property, plant and equipment and the related deferred income tax liabilities. These assumptions include estimates of future electricity prices, discount rates, expected long-term average generation, inflation rates, terminal year and operating and capital costs, the amount, the timing and the income tax rates of future income tax provisions. Estimates also include determination of accruals, purchase price allocations, useful lives, asset valuations, asset impairment testing, deferred tax liabilities, decommissioning retirement obligations and those relevant to the defined benefit pension and non-pension benefit plans. Estimates are based on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

In making estimates, management relies on external information and observable conditions where possible, supplemented by internal analysis, as required. These estimates have been applied in a manner consistent with that in the prior year and there are no known trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that we believe will materially affect the methodology or assumptions utilized in this report. These estimates are impacted by, among other things, future power prices, movements in interest rates, foreign exchange volatility and other factors, some of which are highly uncertain, as described in the “Risk Factors” section in our 2019 Annual Report and the additional risk factors as identified below. The interrelated nature of these factors prevents us from quantifying the overall impact of these movements on Brookfield Renewable’s financial statements in a meaningful way. These sources of estimation uncertainty relate in varying degrees to substantially all asset and liability account balances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Additional risk factors other than as described in the "Risk Factors" section of our 2019 Annual Report are as follows:

Risks Associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic

The rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus, which was declared by the World Health Organization to be a pandemic on March 11, 2020, and actions taken globally in response to COVID-19, have significantly disrupted international business activities. In addition, the Brookfield Renewable group’s business relies, to a certain extent, on free movement of goods, services, and capital from around the world, which has been significantly restricted as a result of COVID-19. The Brookfield Renewable group has implemented a response plan to maintain its operations despite the outbreak of the virus, including extra safety precautions with respect to our personnel and contingency plans with respect to our facilities. However, the Brookfield Renewable group may experience direct or indirect impacts from the pandemic, including delays in development or construction activities in its business and has some risk that its contract counterparties could fail to meet their obligations.

To date, the Brookfield Renewable group has not experienced the material impact to its operations, financial condition, cash flows or financial performance that has been experienced by many other businesses. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances surrounding COVID-19, it is difficult to predict how significant the impact of COVID-19, including any responses to it, will be on the global economy and the business of the Brookfield Renewable group or for how long any disruptions are likely to continue. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, rapidly evolving and difficult to predict, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and additional actions which may be taken to contain COVID-19. Such developments could have an adverse effect on the Brookfield Renewable group’s assets, liabilities, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.

Despite these conditions and risks, our business is highly resilient given we are an owner, operator and investor in one of the most critical sectors in the world.  We generate revenues that are predominantly backed by long-term contracts with well diversified creditworthy counterparties.  The majority of our assets can be operated from centralized control centers and our operators around the world have implemented contingency plans to ensure operations, maintenance and capital programs continue with little disruption.  We have a robust balance sheet with strong investment grade rating, over $3 billion of available liquidity and no material maturities over the next five years.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

There have been no new changes to IFRS with an impact on Brookfield Renewable in 2020.

FUTURE CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There are currently no future changes to IFRS with potential impact on Brookfield Renewable.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

No changes were made in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal control over financial reporting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 pandemic on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to quarter end, Brookfield Renewable, alongside institutional partners, entered into an agreement to acquire a 1,200 MW solar development portfolio in Brazil for approximately $50 million, which are targeted for commercial operations in early 2023. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions, with Brookfield Renewable expected to hold a 25% interest.

On July 29, 2020, Brookfield Renewable contributed its renewable power assets in the United States, Brazil and Colombia (excluding a 10% interest in certain Brazilian and Colombian operations, which will continue to be held indirectly by Brookfield Renewable) to BEPC. On July 30, 2020, Brookfield Renewable completed a special distribution (the “special distribution”) whereby unitholders of record as of July 27, 2020 (the “Record Date”) received one class A exchangeable subordinate voting share (“BEPC exchangeable share") for every four units held. Immediately prior to the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable received BEPC exchangeable shares through a distribution by BRELP (the "BRELP" distribution) of the BEPC exchangeable shares to all of its unitholders. As a result of the BRELP Distribution, (i) Brookfield and its subsidiaries received approximately 33.1 million BEPC exchangeable shares and (ii) Brookfield Renewable received approximately 44.7 million class A shares, which it subsequently distributed to unitholders pursuant to the special distribution. Upon completion of the special distribution, (i) holders of units held approximately 42.8% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares (ii) Brookfield and its affiliates held approximately 57.2% of the issued and outstanding BEPC exchangeable shares, and (iii) a subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable owned all of the issued and outstanding class B multiple voting shares, or class B shares, which represent a 75.0% voting interest in BEPC, and all of the issued and outstanding class C non-voting shares, or class C shares, of BEPC, which entitle Brookfield Renewable to the residual value in BEPC after payment in full of the amount due to holders of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares. Brookfield Renewable directly and indirectly controlled BEPC prior to the special distribution and continues to control BEPC subsequent to the special distribution through its interests in the company. The BEPC exchangeable shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “BEPC”.

The thresholds used for the calculation of incentive distribution rights that Brookfield is entitled to as the owner of the 1% GP interest in BRELP will be reduced on the completion of the special distribution to give effect to the special distribution, to $0.300 and $0.338, respectively.

On July 31, 2020, shortly following the special distribution, Brookfield Renewable acquired all of the outstanding Class A common stock of TerraForm Power, other than the approximately 62% already owned by Brookfield Renewable and its affiliates, through a series of transactions (the "TerraForm Power acquisition"). Pursuant to the TerraForm Power acquisition, each holder of public shares of TerraForm Power was entitled to receive 0.47625 of a BEPC exchangeable share or, at the election of the holder, a LP Unit. As a result of the TerraForm Power acquisition, holders of public shares of TerraForm Power exchanged their shares for 37,035,241 exchangeable units of BEPC and 4,034,469 LP Units. After giving effect to the special distribution and the TERP acquisition, Brookfield and its affiliates, including Brookfield Renewable, through its ownership of BEPC exchangeable shares and class B shares, holds an approximate 84.7% voting interest in BEPC. Holders of BEPC exchangeable shares, excluding Brookfield and its affiliates and Brookfield Renewable, hold an approximate 15.3% aggregate voting interest in BEPC.

Concurrently with the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Renewable entered into a voting agreement with Brookfield whereby Brookfield agreed to provide Brookfield Renewable with a number of voting rights, including the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of the Brookfield entity that owns shares in TerraForm Power. As a result, Brookfield Renewable controls and consolidates TerraForm Power.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Management’s Discussion and Analysis June 30, 2020
Page 31

Following the closing of the TerraForm Power acquisition, Brookfield Asset Management owns, directly and indirectly, 220,030,707 LP Units and Redeemable/Exchangeable partnership units and BEPC exchangeable shares, representing approximately 51.5% of Brookfield Renewable on a fully-exchanged basis and the remaining approximately 48.5% is held by public investors.

PART 8 – PRESENTATION TO STAKEHOLDERS AND PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

PRESENTATION TO PUBLIC STAKEHOLDERS

Equity

Brookfield Renewable’s consolidated equity interests include the non-voting LP Units held by public LP Unitholders and Brookfield, Redeemable/Exchangeable Limited Partnership Units in BRELP, a holding subsidiary of Brookfield Renewable, held by Brookfield, and GP interest in BRELP held by Brookfield. The LP Units and the Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units have the same economic attributes in all respects, except that the Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units provide Brookfield the right to request that their units be redeemed for cash consideration. In the event that Brookfield exercises this right, Brookfield Renewable has the right, at its sole discretion, to satisfy the redemption request with LP Units, rather than cash, on a one-for-one basis. Brookfield, as holder of Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units, participates in earnings and distributions on a per unit basis equivalent to the per unit participation of the LP Units. As Brookfield Renewable, at its sole discretion, has the right to settle the obligation with LP Units, the Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units are classified under equity, and not as a liability.

Given the exchange feature referenced above, we are presenting LP Units, Redeemable/Exchangeable Partnership Units, and the GP Interest as separate components of consolidated equity. This presentation does not impact the total income (loss), per unit or share information, or total consolidated equity.

As at the date of this report, Brookfield owns an approximate 51.5% LP Unit interest, on a fully-exchanged basis, and all general partnership interests in Brookfield Renewable, representing a 0.01% interest, while the remaining approximately 48.5% is held by the public.

Actual and Long-term Average Generation

For assets acquired, disposed or reaching commercial operation during the year, reported generation is calculated from the acquisition, disposition or commercial operation date and is not annualized. As it relates to Colombia only, generation includes both hydroelectric and cogeneration facilities. “Other” includes generation from North America cogeneration and Brazil biomass.

North America hydroelectric long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of a simulation based on historical inflow data performed over a period of typically 30 years. Colombia hydroelectric long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of a simulation based on historical inflow data performed over a period of typically 20 years. Hydroelectric assets located in Brazil benefit from a market framework which levelizes generation risk across producers. Wind long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of simulated historical wind speed data performed over a period of typically 10 years. Solar long-term average is the expected average level of generation based on the results of a simulation using historical irradiance levels in the locations of our projects from the last 14 to 20 years combined with actual generation data during the operational period.

We compare actual generation levels against the long-term average to highlight the impact of an important factor that affects the variability of our business results. In the short-term, we recognize that hydrology, wind and irradiance conditions will vary from one period to the next; over time however, we expect our facilities will continue to produce in line with their long-term averages, which have proven to be reliable indicators of performance.

Our risk of a generation shortfall in Brazil continues to be minimized by participation in a hydrological balancing pool administered by the government of Brazil. This program mitigates hydrology risk by assuring that all participants receive, at any particular point in time, an assured energy amount, irrespective of the actual volume of energy generated. The program reallocates energy, transferring surplus energy from those who generated an excess to those who generate less than their assured energy, up to the total generation within the pool. Periodically, low precipitation across the entire country’s system could result in a temporary reduction of generation available for sale. During these periods, we expect that a higher proportion of thermal generation would be needed to balance supply and demand in the country, potentially leading to higher overall spot market prices.

Generation from our North American pumped storage and cogeneration facilities is highly dependent on market price conditions rather than the generating capacity of the facilities. Our European pumped storage facility generates on a dispatchable basis when required by our contracts for ancillary services. Generation from our biomass facilities is dependent

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Management’s Discussion and Analysis June 30, 2020
Page 33

on the amount of sugar cane harvested in a given year. For these reasons, we do not consider a long-term average for these facilities.

Voting Agreements with Affiliates

Brookfield Renewable has entered into voting agreements with Brookfield, whereby Brookfield Renewable gained control of the entities that own certain renewable power generating facilities in the United States, Brazil, Europe and Asia. Brookfield Renewable has also entered into a voting agreement with its consortium partners in respect of the Colombian business. The voting agreements provide Brookfield Renewable the authority to direct the election of the Boards of Directors of the relevant entities, among other things, and therefore provide Brookfield Renewable with control. Accordingly, Brookfield Renewable consolidates the accounts of these entities.

Brookfield Renewable has also entered into a voting agreement with Brookfield, whereby Brookfield Renewable gained certain rights in respect of the partnership that controls TerraForm Power and its subsidiaries. This voting agreement provides Brookfield Renewable the authority to direct the election of one member of the Board of Directors of the relevant entity, among other things, and therefore provides Brookfield Renewable with significant influence over the partnership that controls TerraForm Power. Accordingly, Brookfield Renewable equity accounts for the partnership that controls TerraForm Power.

For entities previously controlled by Brookfield Asset Management, the voting agreements entered into do not represent business combinations in accordance with IFRS 3, as all combining businesses are ultimately controlled by Brookfield Asset Management both before and after the transactions were completed. Brookfield Renewable accounts for these transactions involving entities under common control in a manner similar to a pooling of interest, which requires the presentation of pre-voting agreement financial information as if the transactions had always been in place. Refer to Note 1(r)(ii) –  Critical judgments in applying accounting policies - Common control transactions  in our December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements for our policy on accounting for transactions under common control.

PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT

Segment Information

Our operations are segmented by – 1) hydroelectric, 2) wind, 3) solar, 4) storage & other (cogeneration and biomass), and 5) corporate – with hydroelectric and wind further segmented by geography (i.e., North America, Colombia, Brazil, Europe and Asia). This best reflects the way in which the CODM reviews results, manages operations and allocates resources. The Colombia segment aggregates the financial results of its hydroelectric and cogeneration facilities. The Canada segment includes the financial results of our strategic investment in Transalta Corporation. The corporate segment represents all activity performed above the individual segments for the business.

We report our results in accordance with these segments and present prior period segmented information in a consistent manner. See Note 5 - Segmented information in our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

One of our primary business objectives is to generate stable and growing cash flows while minimizing risk for the benefit of all stakeholders. We monitor our performance in this regard through three key metrics — i) Net Income (Loss), ii) Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), and iii) Funds From Operations.

It is important to highlight that Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and have limitations as analytical tools. We provide additional information below on how we determine Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations. We also provide reconciliations to Net income (loss). See “Part 4 – Financial Performance Review on Proportionate Information – Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures” and “Part 6 – Selected Quarterly Information – Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures”.

Proportionate Information

Reporting to the CODM on the measures utilized to assess performance and allocate resources has been provided on a proportionate basis. Information on a proportionate basis reflects Brookfield Renewable’s share from facilities which it accounts for using consolidation and the equity method whereby Brookfield Renewable either controls or exercises significant influence or joint control over the investment, respectively. Proportionate information provides a Unitholder perspective that the CODM considers important when performing internal analyses and making strategic and operating decisions. The CODM also believes that providing proportionate information helps investors understand the impacts of decisions made by management and financial results allocable to Unitholders.

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Management’s Discussion and Analysis June 30, 2020
Page 34

Proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Tables reconciling IFRS data with data presented on a proportionate basis have been disclosed. Segment revenues, other income, direct operating costs, interest expense, depreciation, current and deferred income taxes, and other are items that will differ from results presented in accordance with IFRS as these items (1) include Brookfield Renewable’s proportionate share of earnings from equity-accounted investments attributable to each of the above-noted items, and (2) exclude the proportionate share of earnings (loss) of consolidated investments not held by us apportioned to each of the above-noted items.

The presentation of proportionate results has limitations as an analytical tool, including the following:

• The amounts shown on the individual line items were derived by applying our overall economic ownership interest percentage and do not necessarily represent our legal claim to the assets and liabilities, or the revenues and expenses; and
• Other companies may calculate proportionate results differently than we do.
--- ---

Because of these limitations, our proportionate financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial statements as reported under IFRS.

Brookfield Renewable does not control those entities that have not been consolidated and as such, have been presented as equity-accounted investments in its financial statements. The presentation of the assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses do not represent Brookfield Renewable’s legal claim to such items, and the removal of financial statement amounts that are attributable to non-controlling interests does not extinguish Brookfield Renewable’s legal claims or exposures to such items.

Unless the context indicates or requires otherwise, information with respect to the MW attributable to Brookfield Renewable’s facilities, including development assets, is presented on a consolidated basis, including with respect to facilities whereby Brookfield Renewable either controls or jointly controls the applicable facility.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income (loss) is calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Net income (loss) is an important measure of profitability, in particular because it has a standardized meaning under IFRS. The presentation of net income (loss) on an IFRS basis for our business will often lead to the recognition of a loss even though the underlying cash flows generated by the assets are supported by strong margins and stable, long-term power purchase agreements. The primary reason for this is that accounting rules require us to recognize a significantly higher level of depreciation for our assets than we are required to reinvest in the business as sustaining capital expenditures.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure used by investors to analyze the operating performance of companies.

Brookfield Renewable uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of its operations before the effects of interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, management service costs, non-controlling interests, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash gain or loss from equity-accounted investments, distributions to preferred limited partners and other typical non-recurring items. Brookfield Renewable adjusts for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and/or are not factors used by management for evaluating operating performance.

Brookfield Renewable believes that presentation of this measure will enhance an investor’s ability to evaluate our financial and operating performance on an allocable basis to Unitholders.

Funds From Operations and Funds From Operations per Unit

Funds From Operations is a non-IFRS measure used by investors to analyze net earnings from operations without the effects of certain volatile items that generally have no current financial impact or items not directly related to the performance of the business.

Brookfield Renewable uses Funds From Operations to assess the performance of the business before the effects of certain cash items (e.g. acquisition costs and other typical non-recurring cash items) and certain non-cash items (e.g. deferred income taxes, depreciation, non-cash portion of non-controlling interests, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, non-cash gain or loss from equity-accounted investments, and other non-cash items) as these are not reflective of the performance of the underlying business. In our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements we use the revaluation approach in accordance with IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, whereby depreciation is determined based on a revalued amount, thereby reducing comparability with our peers who do not report under IFRS as issued by the IASB or who do not employ

Brookfield Renewable Partners L.P. Management’s Discussion and Analysis June 30, 2020
Page 35

the revaluation approach to measuring property, plant and equipment. We add back deferred income taxes on the basis that we do not believe this item reflects the present value of the actual tax obligations that we expect to incur over our long-term investment horizon.

Brookfield Renewable believes that analysis and presentation of Funds From Operations on this basis will enhance an investor’s understanding of the performance of the business. Funds From Operations per Unit is not a substitute measure of performance for earnings per share and does not represent amounts available for distribution to LP Unitholders.

Funds From Operations is not intended to be representative of cash provided by operating activities or results of operations determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, this measure is not used by the CODM to assess Brookfield Renewable’s liquidity.

Proportionate Debt

Proportionate debt is presented based on the proportionate share of borrowings obligations relating to the investments of Brookfield Renewable in various portfolio businesses. The proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Proportionate debt measures are provided because management believes it assists investors and analysts in estimating the overall performance and understanding the leverage pertaining specifically to Brookfield Renewable's share of its invested capital in a given investment. When used in conjunction with proportionate Adjusted EBITDA, proportionate debt is expected to provide useful information as to how Brookfield Renewable has financed its businesses at the asset-level. Management believes that the proportionate presentation, when read in conjunction with Brookfield Renewable’ reported results under IFRS, including consolidated debt, provides a more meaningful assessment of how the operations of Brookfield Renewable are performing and capital is being managed. The presentation of proportionate debt has limitations as an analytical tool, including the following:

• Proportionate debt amounts do not represent the consolidated obligation for debt underlying a consolidated investment. If an individual project does not generate sufficient cash flows to service the entire amount of its debt payments, management may determine, in their discretion, to pay the shortfall through an equity injection to avoid defaulting on the obligation. Such a shortfall may not be apparent from or may not equal the difference between aggregate proportionate Adjusted EBITDA for all of the portfolio investments of Brookfield Renewable and aggregate proportionate debt for all of the portfolio investments of Brookfield Renewable; and
• Other companies may calculate proportionate debt differently.
--- ---

Because of these limitations, the proportionate financial information of Brookfield Renewable should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial statements of Brookfield Renewable as reported under IFRS.

While we anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause our views to change, we disclaim any obligation to update the forward-looking statements, other than as required by applicable law. For further information on these known and unknown risks, please see “Risk Factors” included in our Form 20-F and other risks and factors that are described therein.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING USE OF NON-IFRS MEASURES

This Interim Report contains references to certain proportionate information, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations, Funds From Operations per Unit and Proportionate Debt (collectively, “Brookfield Renewable’s Non-IFRS Measures”) which are not generally accepted accounting measures under IFRS and therefore may differ from definitions of proportionate information, Adjusted EBITDA, Funds From Operations, Funds From Operations per Unit, and Proportionate Debt used by other entities. In particular, our definition of Funds From Operations may differ from the definition of funds from operations used by other organizations, as well as the definition of funds from operations used by the Real Property Association of Canada and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”), in part because the NAREIT definition is based on U.S. GAAP, as opposed to IFRS. We believe that Brookfield Renewable’s Non-IFRS Measures are useful supplemental measures that may assist investors in assessing our financial performance. Brookfield Renewable’s Non-IFRS Measures should not be considered as the sole measure of our performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures reflect how we manage our business and, in our opinion, enable the reader to better understand our business. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income is presented in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis. We have also provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income in Note 5 - Segmented information in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Funds From Operations to net income is presented in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
