In late 2014, following years of strategic reboots and changes of direction, E.ON announced a major restructuring that will see the German utility split into two distinct companies. One will focus on renewables and the other on the company’s riskier fossil fuels and commodities trading businesses. For E.ON, this restructuring could represent the last roll of the dice in a changed and still-volatile marketplace, and is a recognition that a new path must be carved. Gas Strategies examines how E.ON has reached this crossroads and asks what the future holds for Europe’s largest utility.
