EnBW Sells Lippendorf Power Plant Stake to EP Energy Transition

EnBW has sold its stake in the Lippendorf power plant to EP Energy Transition, a part of the EP Group. With this transaction, which is set to take effect at the end of 2025, EP Energy Transition will acquire the remaining 50 percent in the facility, having previously held the other half. EnBW stated that this move marks a significant step towards decarbonizing its energy generation portfolio, as it will reduce the company’s annual CO2 emissions by up to 2.5 million tonnes and lower its coal-based generation capacity by about 40 percent over two years. Following the sale, renewable energy will account for approximately 64 percent of EnBW’s generation capacity. The company aims to exit coal by 2028, provided energy transition progress and security of supply allow.
