據OE網站3月22日報道，日本最大的公用事業(yè)公司JERA已同意以15.5億歐元(17億美元)收購比利時海上風能生產商Parkwind，以擴大可再生能源領域，實現脫碳目標。

由東京電力公司控股公司（Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings）和中部電力公司（Chubu Electric Power Co Inc）組成的合資公司JERA，將通過該交易將Parkwind在比利時的四個海上風電場和一個正在德國建造的新風電場加入到其可再生能源投資組合中。

此次收購將使JERA的可再生能源資產(還包括在英國的現有海上風電投資)從2022年底的2.2吉瓦增加到2.8吉瓦。

JERA海外海上風電業(yè)務集團負責人Ken Matsuda在新聞發(fā)布會上表示，我們希望獲得Parkwind在歐洲海上風電項目方面的專業(yè)知識和技術，這些可以用于JERA在亞洲現有的風電場和新項目。并補充道，JERA的目標是通過新的開發(fā)和收購，到2026年3月將其可再生能源資產提高到5吉瓦。

JERA表示，同意將Parkwind出售給JERA的Virya Energy將研究重新投資Parkwind比利時風力發(fā)電場少數股權的可能性。該交易將于今年晚些時候完成，目前尚待批準。

Parkwind目前在比利時近海岸運行201臺渦輪機，裝機發(fā)電量為771兆瓦，能夠為80萬戶家庭供電，并在全球范圍內，包括德國和愛爾蘭，還有1.1吉瓦正在開發(fā)中。

Japan's JERA to Buy Belgium's Top Offshore Wind Firm for $1.7B

Japan's top utility JERA has agreed to buy Belgium-based offshore wind energy producer Parkwind for 1.55 billion euros ($1.7 billion), as it expands in renewable power to meet decarbonization goals.

JERA, a joint venture between Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings and Chubu Electric Power Co Inc will add Parkwind's four offshore wind farms in Belgium and a new wind farm being built in Germany to its renewable portfolio through the deal.

The acquisition will increase JERA's renewable energy assets, which also include existing offshore wind investments in the United Kingdom, to 2.8 gigawatts (GW) from 2.2 GW as of the end of 2022.

"We want to gain Parkwind's know-how and knowledge of offshore wind power projects in Europe that can be utilized in JERA's existing wind farms and new projects mainly in Asia," Ken Matsuda, the head of JERA's overseas offshore wind power business group, told a news conference.

JERA aims to boost its renewable power assets to 5 GW by March 2026 through new development and acquisitions, he added.

Virya Energy, which agreed to sell Parkwind to JERA, will study the possibility of reinvesting in a minority stake in Parkwind's Belgian wind farms, JERA said. The deal is to be closed later this year, pending approvals.  

Parkwind currently runs 201 turbines off the coast of Belgium with a capacity of 771 megawatts, able to supply 800,000 households, and has another 1.1 GW in development worldwide, including in Germany and Ireland.
