Vattenfall UK (formerly: Nuon Renewables) is a subsidiary of Vattenfall headquartered in London. It generates renewable energy, primarily through wind farms.[2]

History[edit]

Vattenfall UK was established as Nuon Renewables in 2000. It was a United Kingdom-based subsidiary of N.V. Nuon Energy. It has built wind farms across the UK with a potential annual power generation total of eight hundred megawatts.[3]

In 2009, N.V. Nuon Energy was acquired by Vattenfall.[4] In January 2012, it was merged with Vattenfall's other assets in the United Kingdom and was renamed Vattenfall UK.[5]

In March 2020, Vattenfall UK sold its electric vehicle networktoStatkraft and its supply side business, iSupply Energy, to EDF Energy.[6]

Operations[edit]

Vattenfall's core businesses in the United Kingdom are renewable power generation, heating, business-to-business sales and distribution.[6]

The company owns and operates several wind farms, some as small as their ten megawatt Parc Cynog wind farm, to others as large as their current project, a two-hundred and ninety-nine megawatt development in Pen y Cymoedd Wind Energy.[3]
