EXPANSION UNDER REGULATION & COMPETITION

Growth in a regulated energy market with functioning competition

When it comes to expansion, we advise customers on all matters related to growth and especially on strategic matters, business development, mergers & acquisitions and new business fields. Products in the field of expansion include strategy development, business plans, the performance of transactions, as well as business concepts for small and medium-sized municipal utilities.

MULTI-STRATEGIES ON ALL LEVELS OF THE VALUE CHAIN

Talking about strategy checks

Regulation and competition make it vital to check previous goals and strategies for integrated supply, tasks that generate discussion right up to supervisory board level.

MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS

Talking about mergers & acquisitions

Since liberalisation began, numerous mergers and acquisitions have taken place both between municipal utilities and also between regional suppliers and integrated utilities. The relevant M&A transactions also affect investments in power stations, in distribution and transmission grids, and in  municipal utilities. 

BENEFITING FROM SYNERGIES

Talking about co-operation

Since liberalisation began in 1998, co-operation has become a tried-and-tested means of reaping the benefits of joint procurement, billing, IT, etc. on an equal footing. Co-operation has been gaining ground again as a result of the pressure caused by regulation and competition.

Implementing municipal climate and energy policy

Talking about grid licensing and remunicipalisation

In 2010 and 2011, around 2,000 grid license agreements are due to expire in Germany. This will give municipalities the opportunity to take over their own grids - and energy suppliers will have the chance to position themselves as bidders for a strategic partnership with the municipalities.
