RWE Cuts 2025-2030 Investment Plans by €10 Billion Citing Global Risks

The energy giant forecasts declining profits and raises project return expectations while emphasizing the need for regulatory stability.

RWE plans to invest €35 billion from 2025 to 2030, a €10 billion reduction from previous targets, due to rising uncertainties.
The company cited regulatory challenges, supply chain issues, geopolitical risks, and higher interest rates as key factors influencing the decision.
Operational profit for 2024 fell by more than 25% to €5.7 billion, though it exceeded analysts' expectations.
RWE forecasts further profit declines in 2025, with operational earnings expected to range between €4.55 billion and €5.15 billion.
Despite challenges, RWE achieved a record 50 terawatt-hours of renewable energy production in 2024 and invested €10 billion in green energy projects.
