RWE to hold 10% in planned Brunsbuettel LNG terminal

RWE, Germany's largest power producer, will have a 10% stake in a planned terminal to import LNG in the German port town of Brunsbuettel, it said on Saturday. 

Earlier, Germany's Economy Ministry said state lender KfW, Dutsch Gasunie and RWE had signed a MoU for the project, in which KfW would own half. 

"It's a good signal that the political decision-makers are decisively pushing ahead with the construction of German import terminals," RWE CEO Markus Krebber said.

"We will be a strong partner in Brunsbuettel. In line with our clear path towards climate neutrality, a key focus for us is the subsequent conversion of the terminal to enable the import of green molecules, such as green hydrogen or ammonia."
