E.ON stands by energy investment
Despite declining energy demand from industrial power consumption, German utility E.ON plans to stand by its energy infrastructure investment scheme to "make a major contribution towards overcoming the economic crisis", according to CEO Wulf Bernotat.
E.ON intends to invest about EUR30 billion ($41 billion) during 2009-2011, EUR6 billion less than originally planned. However, the company says that projects dropped from the investment period have been delayed rather than cancelled.
