Vattenfall’s acquisition of DELTA Energie final
The acquisition of electricity and gas sales company DELTA Energie B.V. by Vattenfall is now final. The Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) has given its approval and the works councils of both DELTA Energie and Vattenfall have given positive advice. The take-over of DELTA Energie by Vattenfall is therefore effective as of March 1st 2019.
DELTA supplies telecom services from DELTA Fiber Nederland BV and green electricity and gas from DELTA Energie. Vattenfall is only taking over DELTA Energie. Vattenfall is a strong partner for DELTA, and together the two companies will be able to take even greater steps to provide fossil free energy to customers. DELTA Energie will continue to operate from Zeeland as an independent company. The acquisition was announced on January 17, 2019.
