The economic affairs ministry has approved energy firm Essent’s plan to separate its production and supply business from its grid arm.
The green light means local authority-owned Essent can now go ahead with plans to sell its production arm to Germany’s RWE for €9.2bn.
The grid side of Essent’s operations will remain in state hands.
