Spain energy giant Iberdrola ($84 billion market value) has announced to buy 88% of UK Electricity North West at $5.4 billion valuation. Iberdrola (2/8/24):”Iberdrola has today signed an agreement to acquire 88% of Electricity North West (ENW) in the UK for an equity value of £2.1 billion (€2.5 billion). The deal values 100% of the company, including debt, at approximately €5 billion. This acquisition is consistent with Iberdrola’s strategy to invest in electricity networks and in countries with a strong credit rating, such as the United Kingdom (AA credit rating). Since the merger with ScottishPower in 2007, the UK has been one of the leading investment destinations for the company, where it has invested around £30 billion (€36 billion) in that time. ScottishPower is the only 100% green integrated utility in the UK. With the completion of the deal, the UK becomes Iberdrola’s leading market by regulated asset base, which is valued at approximately €14 billion, followed by the United States at €13.3 billion.”
