Mirant, Vattenfall Cancel German Utility Talks

LCG, Sept. 26, 2001--Joint venture talks between U.S. power producer Mirant Corp. and Sweden's Vattenfall to form a dominant utility in Germany have broken off and there is little likelihood of resumption, Mirant said this morning in a FAXed news release.

Mirant's statement said top officials of both firms, meeting in Berlin, had decided to end the talks, which would have created a new electric utility in northeastern Germany by merging four existing companies. The four are Berlin's own utility Bewag, power producer Veag, coal company Laubag and Vattenfall subsidiary HEW.

A chill had settled over the talks this morning when Vattenfall announced that it had already made up its mind on the person who would be chief executive of the utility.
