EnBW

Karlsruhe, Germany

About

as of 2026-10

A German utility based in Karlsruhe, whose two major shareholders, the state of Baden-Württemberg and OEW, an association of districts, each hold 47% through their investment companies. That gives it public ownership without national government control. It reports in three segments: Sustainable Generation Infrastructure (renewable and conventional generation, plus trading), System Critical Infrastructure (electricity and gas grids) and Smart Infrastructure for Customers (retail energy sales). In offshore wind it was an early builder in the German Baltic, putting EnBW Baltic 1 into operation in 2011, before moving to the North Sea, where it built He Dreiht without state funding and partners hold 49.9% of the Hohe See and He Dreiht companies. In the UK it is developing Morven in Scotland with JERA Nex bp, having dropped Mona and Morgan in January 2026 when neither won a Contract for Difference.
