阿布扎比考虑出售40亿美元TAQA股份

据世界石油4月21日消息，知情人士称，阿布扎比正考虑出售其最大公用事业公司的股份，这个石油资源丰富的酋长国正寻求更多的国际投资来充实其多样化资产。

据知情人士透露，政府正与一家顾问公司合作，考虑出售阿布扎比国家能源公司(TAQA)约10%的股份。按目前的市值计算，TAQA欲出售的股份价值可能超过40亿美元。

周三下午2点35分，TAQA股价上涨1.5%，至1.39迪拉姆，该公司市值约430亿美元。上述知情人士称，此次出售可能会吸引全球大型公用事业公司和其他金融投资者的兴趣。知情人士指出，初步的非约束性投标预计将于5月份提交。

TAQA计划减少对石油和天然气资产的投资并专注于可再生能源，这可能会吸引投资者。该公司希望在未来十年将其太阳能和风能发电比例提高到30%。TAQA已经在阿布扎比拥有全球最大的太阳能发电厂之一，并正在建造规模更大的发电厂。

知情人士表示，TAQA出售股份的规模可能会根据投资者的兴趣而改变。知情人士称，谈判正在进行中，不确定是否会达成交易。

TAQA的一名代表拒绝就此置评。

Abu Dhabi said to consider selling $4 billion Taqa stake

Abu Dhabi is weighing the sale of a stake in its biggest utility as the oil-rich emirate seeks more international investment in its marquee assets, people familiar with the matter said.

The government is working with an adviser as it considers selling about 10% of Abu Dhabi National Energy Co., according to the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private. The stake in the company, known as Taqa, could be worth more than $4 billion based on its current market price.

Shares of Taqa were up 1.5% to 1.39 dirhams at 2:35 p.m. in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday, giving it a market value of about $43 billion. The sale could attract interest from large global utility companies and other financial investors, the people said. Initial non-binding bids are expected to be submitted in May, according to the people.

Investors may be attracted to Taqa’s plans to cut exposure to oil and natural gas assets and focus on renewables. The company wants to boost the portion of its power produced from solar and wind to 30% over the next decade. Taqa already owns one of the world’s biggest solar plants in Abu Dhabi and is in the process of building an even larger one.

The size of the Taqa stake being sold could change depending on investor interest, the people said. Deliberations are ongoing, and there’s no certainty they will lead to a transaction, according to the people.

A representative for Taqa declined to comment.
