Germany's largest power producer, RWE AG, has started the process of selling its minority stake in Amprion GmbH, a well-known grid operator.
The company is contacting potential buyers to gauge interest in its 25.1% share, which is valued at around €2 billion ($2.1 billion).
It is expected that infrastructure and pension funds will be interested in the stake, reflecting the increasing attractiveness of energy assets in the current market.
RWE's decision to sell the stake is part of a broader strategy to optimize its portfolio and focus on core operations in the energy sector.
