RWE has commissioned a 34-megawatt turbine from Kawasaki Heavy Industries for hydrogen power generation at the Emsland gas power plant in Lingen. The unit can run on hydrogen, natural gas or mixtures and is set to test up to 100 percent hydrogen at industrial scale in the coming months. The fuel will be supplied by the neighbouring electrolyser Get H2 Nukleus; RWE sees the tests as a basis for deploying even larger plants to supply households. » More on heise.de

After the first bidding round ended, there are reports that RWE together with private equity firm KKR has made a non-binding offer for Uniper. The works council is alarmed and warns of a possible break-up of the group. Competition-law concerns are expected because RWE and Uniper overlap in power-plant operations and gas trading; any clearance is likely to come with conditions. Other presumed bidders include consortia around Brookfield/CPPIB, the EP Group and Equinor; the state wants to retain a blocking minority of 25 percent plus one share and also favors a possible re-IPO. » More on faz.net
