FRANKFURT (Reuters) – Siemens Energy is preparing a bid to buy the remaining third of Spanish-listed wind turbine maker Siemens Gamesa it does not already own, two people familiar with the matter said.
The stake is currently worth 3.14 billion euros ($3.31 billion).
Bloomberg first reported the news.
A spokesperson for Siemens Energy declined to comment.
Sources told Reuters earlier this year that Siemens Energy is looking at options for how to best acquire the remaining stake, adding a deal could materialise by summer.
