Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, assumptions, known and unknown risks, and uncertainties and typically include words or variations of words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “seek,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “goal,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “objective,” “forecast,” “target,” “potential,” “continue,” “would,” “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may” or other comparable terms and phrases. All statements that address operating performance, events, or developments that TerraForm Power expects or anticipates will occur in the future are forward-looking statements. They may include estimates of expected adjusted EBITDA, cash available for distribution (CAFD), earnings, revenues, capital expenditures, liquidity, capital structure, future growth, financing arrangement and other financial performance items (including future dividends per share), descriptions of management’s plans or objectives for future operations, products, or services, or descriptions of assumptions underlying any of the above. Forward-looking statements provide TerraForm Power’s current expectations or predictions of future conditions, events, or results and speak only as of the date they are made. Although TerraForm Power believes its respective expectations and assumptions are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these expectations and assumptions will prove to have been correct and actual results may vary materially.

By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, our relationship with SunEdison, including SunEdison’s bankruptcy filings and our reliance on SunEdison for management, corporate and accounting services, project level operation and




maintenance and asset management services, to maintain critical information technology and accounting systems and to provide our employees; risks related to events of default and potential events of default arising under project-level financings and other agreements related to the chapter 11 proceedings of SunEdison and our failure to obtain corporate and project-level audits; risks related to our failure to satisfy the requirements of Nasdaq; our ability to integrate the projects we acquire from third parties or otherwise realize the anticipated benefits from such acquisitions, including through refinancing or future sales; actions of third parties, including but not limited to the failure of SunEdison, to fulfill its obligations; price fluctuations, termination provisions and buyout provisions in offtake agreements; delays or unexpected costs during the completion of projects we intend to acquire; our ability to successfully identify, evaluate, and consummate acquisitions from or changes in expected terms and timing of any acquisitions; regulatory requirements and incentives for production of renewable power; operating and financial restrictions under agreements governing indebtedness; the condition of the debt and equity capital markets and our ability to borrow additional funds and access capital markets; the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations; our ability to compete against traditional and renewable energy companies; hazards customary to the power production industry and power generation operations, such as unusual weather conditions and outages or other curtailment of our power plants; departure of some or all of SunEdison’s employees particularly executive officers or key employees and operations and maintenance or asset management personnel that we significantly rely upon; pending and future litigation; and our ability to operate our business efficiently, to operate, maintain and transition from SunEdison information technology, technical, accounting and generation monitoring systems, to manage and complete governmental filings on a timely basis, and to manage our capital expenditures. Furthermore, any dividends are subject to available capital, market conditions, and compliance with agreements governing our indebtedness and associated laws and regulations. Many of these factors are beyond TerraForm Power’s control.

TerraForm Power disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions, factors, or expectations, new information, data, or methods, future events, or other changes, except as required by law. The foregoing list of factors that might cause results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements should be considered in connection with information regarding risks and uncertainties which are described in TerraForm Power’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, and Forms 10-Q with respect to the second and third quarters of 2015, the risk factors furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Current Report on Form 8-K on July 26, 2016, as well as additional factors it may describe from time to time in other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or incorporated herein. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and, consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

P. 8 Preliminary 2Q 2016 Results Note: Ranges have been provided for key financial metrics as the interim financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2016 are still under review. Capacity factor calculated based on gross capacity of 3,078 MW which generated 2,037 GWh in the 91 days in 2Q. 1. Adjusted for amortization of favorable or unfavorable rate revenue contracts, unrealized gains or losses on energy derivatives, and amortization of ITC revenue. Metric 2Q 2016 Net MW Owned (Period End) 2,987 Production (GWh) 2,037 Capacity Factor 30% Revenue $182M - $190M Adjusted Revenue1 $198M - $206M Adjusted Revenue / MWh $97 - $101 Net Income / (Loss) ($20M) – ($6M) Adjusted EBITDA $152M – $160M CAFD ($17M) – ($9M) Commentary  Production and revenue somewhat below management expectations due to wind resource 7% below normal, primarily in the Northeast. Fleet operations slightly better than expected.  Revenue per MWh up 27% vs. 1Q due to mix, as a higher percentage of 2Q production was from solar, which has higher pricing  ($68M) negative impact to CAFD as a result of accumulation of restricted cash due to SunEdison bankruptcy-triggered or related defaults  CAFD midpoint would have been $55M had there been no change in restricted cash due to SunEdison bankruptcy-triggered or related defaults Exhibit 99.2

P. 11 Risk Factors  Please refer to the risk factors furnished to the SEC with Form 8-K filed July 26, 2016 and to subsequent Form 8-K filings Exhibit 99.2


 
P. 12 Definitions: Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, CAFD Adjusted Revenue We define Adjusted Revenue as operating revenues, net adjusted for non-cash items including unrealized gain/loss on derivatives, amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts, net and other non-cash items. We believe Adjusted Revenue is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use such calculations as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted Revenue is a non-GAAP measure used by our management for internal planning purposes, including for certain aspects of our consolidated operating budget. Adjusted EBITDA We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus depreciation, accretion and amortization, non-cash affiliate general and administrative costs, acquisition related expenses, interest expense, gains (losses) on interest rate swaps, foreign currency gains (losses), income tax (benefit) expense and stock compensation expense, and certain other non-cash charges, unusual or non-recurring items and other items that we believe are not representative of our core business or future operating performance. Our definitions and calculations of these items may not necessarily be the same as those used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or profitability and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Cash Available For Distribution (CAFD) We define CAFD as net cash provided by operating activities of Terra LLC as adjusted for certain other cash flow items that we associate with our operations. It is a non-GAAP measure of our ability to generate cash to service our dividends. As used in this report, CAFD represents net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of Terra LLC (i) plus or minus changes in assets and liabilities as reflected on our statements of cash flows, (ii) minus deposits into (or plus withdrawals from) restricted cash accounts required by project financing arrangements to the extent they decrease (or increase) cash provided by operating activities, (iii) minus cash distributions paid to non-controlling interests in our renewable energy facilities, if any, (iv) minus scheduled project-level and other debt service payments and repayments in accordance with the related borrowing arrangements, to the extent they are paid from operating cash flows during a period, (v) minus non-expansionary capital expenditures, if any, to the extent they are paid from operating cash flows during a period, (vi) plus cash contributions from SunEdison pursuant to the Interest Payment Agreement and the Amended Interest Payment Agreement, (vii) plus operating costs and expenses paid by SunEdison pursuant to the MSA to the extent such costs or expenses exceed the fee payable by us pursuant to such agreement but otherwise reduce our net cash provided by operating activities and (viii) plus or minus operating items as necessary to present the cash flows we deem representative of our core business operations, with the approval of the audit committee. CAFD is a non-GAAP measure and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), net cash provided by operating activities or any other liquidity measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. Restricted Cash Accounting Policy Change Note: As of December 31, 2015, TerraForm Power changed its policy regarding restricted cash to characterize the following as restricted cash: (i) cash on deposit in collateral accounts, debt service reserve accounts, maintenance and other reserve accounts, and (ii) cash on deposit in operating accounts but subject to distribution restrictions relating to covenant defaults on debt existing as of the balance sheet date. Previously, project-level cash available for operating purposes, but subject to compliance procedures and lender approvals prior to distribution from project level accounts, was also considered restricted. This project-level cash is now considered unrestricted but is designated as unavailable for immediate corporate purposes. The impact of the new accounting policy on reported CAFD is immaterial for 2015 and is expected to be immaterial for 2016. Exhibit 99.2


 
P. 13 Reg G: Reconciliation of Net Operating Revenue to Adjusted Revenue (Midpoint of Range) a) Represents the change in the fair value of commodity contracts not designated as hedges. b) Represents net amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts included within operating revenues, net. c) Primarily represents deferred revenue recognized related to the upfront sale of investment tax credits to non-controlling interest members. $M, unless otherwise noted 2Q 2016 Net Operating Revenue (Midpoint of Range) $186 Unrealized loss (gain) on derivatives, net (a) 7 Amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts, net (b) 11 Other non-cash (c) (2) Adjusted Revenue - Midpoint of Range $202 Exhibit 99.2

P. 15 Footnotes to Reg G: Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA (Midpoint of Range) a) Includes a $11.4 million reduction within operating revenues, net due to net amortization of favorable and unfavorable rate revenue contracts for the three months ended June 30, 2016. b) General and administrative expense - affiliate represents costs incurred by SunEdison for services provided to the Company pursuant to the MSA subsequent to the IPO and allocated to the Company in corporate allocations prior to the IPO. In conjunction with the closing of the IPO on August 5, 2015, we entered into the MSA with SunEdison, pursuant to which SunEdison agreed to provide or arrange for other service providers to provide management and administrative services to us. No cash consideration was paid to SunEdison for these services for the year ended December 31. 2015. Thereafter, the amount of general and administrative expense - affiliate in excess of the fees paid to SunEdison in each period will be treated as an addback in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. In addition, non-recurring items and other items incurred directly by TerraForm Power that we do not consider indicative of our core business operations will be treated as an addback in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. The Company’s normal general administrative expenses, not paid by SunEdison, are not added back in the reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA. c) Represents transaction related costs, including affiliate acquisition costs, associated with acquisitions. No costs were incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2016. d) Represents the change in the fair value of commodity contracts not designated as hedges. e) We incurred a net loss of $5.3M on foreign currency exchange for the three months ended June 30, 2016, due primarily to unrealized gains/losses on the re-measurement of intercompany loans which are primarily denominated in British pounds. f) Primarily represents deferred revenue recognized related to the upfront sale of investment tax credits to non-controlling interest members. g) Represents certain other non-cash charges or unusual or non-recurring items that we believe are not representative of our core business or future operating performance. Exhibit 99.2

P. 17 Footnotes to Reg G: Reconciliation of Cash from Operations to CAFD (Midpoint of Range) a) We received an equity contribution of $4.0 million from SunEdison pursuant to the Interest Payment Agreement for the year ended December 31, 2015. We received an equity contribution from SunEdison of $6.6 million and $8.0 million pursuant to the Amended Interest Payment Agreement during the year ended December 31, 2015 and the three months ended March 31, 2016, respectively. In addition, in conjunction with the First Wind Acquisition, SunEdison committed to reimburse us for capital expenditures and operations and maintenance labor fees in excess of budgeted amounts (not to exceed $53.9 million through 2019) for certain of our wind power plants. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company received contributions pursuant to this agreement of $4.3 million. No contributions were received pursuant to these agreements during the three months ended June 30, 2016. b) General and administrative expense - affiliate represents costs incurred by SunEdison for services provided to the Company pursuant to the MSA subsequent to the IPO and allocated to the Company in corporate allocations prior to the IPO. In conjunction with the closing of the IPO on August 5, 2015, we entered into the MSA with SunEdison, pursuant to which SunEdison agreed to provide or arrange for other service providers to provide management and administrative services to us. No cash consideration was paid to SunEdison for these services for the year ended December 31. 2015. Thereafter, the amount of general and administrative expense - affiliate in excess of the fees paid to SunEdison in each period will be treated as an addback in the reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to CAFD. In addition, non-recurring items and other items incurred directly by TerraForm Power that we do not consider indicative of our core business operations will be treated as an addback in the reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to CAFD . The Company’s normal general administrative expenses, not paid by SunEdison, are not added back in the reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to CAFD. c) Represents transaction related costs, including affiliate acquisition costs, associated with acquisitions. No costs were incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2016. d) TERP implemented an updated policy for the accounting for restricted cash effective for the year ending December 31, 2015. The impact of the new accounting policy on reported CAFD is immaterial for 2015 and is expected to be immaterial for 2016. However, the new policy causes timing differences in quarter-to-quarter CAFD recognition within a calendar year, 2Q 2016 CAFD would be estimated to be in the range of $21 million to $29 million if reported under the prior policy. For a full discussion of the new policy for accounting for restricted cash, please refer to the “Definitions” page of this document. Exhibit 99.2
