RWE municipal stake drops to 12% following Amprion deal

German utility giant RWE is diluting its municipal ownership as part of a strategic push to consolidate control over power grid operator Amprion. CEO Markus Krebber confirmed that the move, triggered by a 3.6 billion euro capital increase, will reduce the collective stake held by local authorities from 14% to 12%.

The financing package is designed to secure a larger share in the high-voltage transmission firm, a critical asset in the company’s infrastructure portfolio. While local shareholders face dilution, the ownership structure among global investors is shifting as well. Qatar will maintain its position as the single-largest shareholder with a stake just under 10%. Conversely, Norges Bank is set to significantly bolster its holdings, though the specific percentages remain undisclosed. This transaction marks a pivot toward institutional capital as RWE reorganizes its equity base to support the multi-billion euro investment in Amprion.
