EON Boosts Spending by 15% as AI Data Hubs Seek Grid Linkups
(Bloomberg) -- EON SE will ramp up investments by 15% this year as the German utility seeks to profit from the energy transition and demand for connections from AI data centers. Cuts to Section 8 Housing Assistance Loom Amid HUD Uncertainty The Trump Administration Takes Aim at Transportation Research Shelters Await Billions in Federal Money for Homelessness Providers NYC's Congestion Pricing Pulls In $48.6 Million in First Month New York's Congestion Pricing Plan Faces Another Legal Showdown The firm, one of the region's largest distribution grid operators, plays a key role in helping nations to achieve its climate and renweable power goals. Europe aims to be climate neutral by the middle of the century, an endeavor which requires a massive expansion of power grids so that millions of clean energy plants and new devices can be connected. Total investments will increase by about €1.1 billion ($1.2 billion) this year to about €8.6 billion, the firm said Wednesday in its earnings report. Most of that will be in networks with the purpose of accelerating the transformation of Europe's energy system, the firm said. EON said it sees additional connection requests from the AI driven boom in data centers in the 'gigawatt range,' as well as requests by large-scale storage systems with an aggregate capacity of 100 gigawatts. 'We have a number of fundamentals driving the need for more infrastructure — the continued expansion of renewables, batteries, battery factories and then data centers just come on top,' Leonhard Birnbaum said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. 'We're talking about a tripling (of investments) over the past five years.' However Birnbaum only expects that '10% to 15%, maximum 20%' of the batteries will actually be built, he told reporters. He is in favor of a reservation fee that would be paid back if the facility is built. The company also slightly increased its 2024 to 2028 investment program from €42 billion to €43 billion. The majority of this investment is in network infrastructure. The plan will be updated early next year at the latest, Chief Financial Officer Nadia Jakobi told analysts on a call. Additions could be as much as €10 billion, according to a presentation. EON shares rose the most in almost a year before paring gains. They traded up 3.4% at 12:50 p.m. in Frankfurt. They have gained 8% so far in 2025, although that's still below the gain in the nation's main DAX index.

European Energy Security Increasingly Threatened, EON CEO Says
The security of Europe's energy supply is more challenging than ever, EON SE Chief Executive Officer Leonhard Birnbaum said, pointing to attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure and cyber threats as examples. 'Energy, and power in particular, is being used as a weapon against us,' the German utility's Birnbaum said on a webinar on Friday as part of the Munich Security Conference. He mentioned the commercial weaponization of gas — with Russian flows to Europe being choked off — being followed by Moscow's attacks on Ukrainian energy facilities.
