The Italian Sorgenia Group is selling a package of five small facilities each with a capacity of between 1 and 3 MW, making a total capacity of close to 8 MW. Annual production amounts to around 30 Gigawatt hours (GWh). The facilities have valid permits. The parties have agreed not to disclose details of the purchase price. The acquisition is a logical supplement to BKW's hydro power portfolio in Northern Italy and simultaneously enhances its local presence. Combined with its other activities in the Italian electricity market right across the value chain, this represents a further boost to BKW's position in Italy.
