09:54 AM EDT, 10/07/2026 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates throughout to more closely reflect the RWE CEO's comments) RWE (RWE.F) Chief Executive Officer Markus Krebber said any involvement in German state-owned Uniper (UN0.F) would be "very, very limited and small," Bloomberg News reported Wednesday. Krebber also said in an interview with Bloomberg that a takeover of Uniper is "not possible" given RWE's current market position. The comment comes as the energy group partnered with private equity giant KKR to make a nonbinding bid for Uniper. Other interested parties in Uniper include Norwegian energy group Equinor (EQNR.OL) and a consortium of Brookfield Asset Management and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, the news report stated.
