AEP Takes over Enron Trading Ops in Scandinavia
LCG, Jan. 8, 2002--U.S. utility holding company American Electric Power Co. Inc. extended its European energy trading operations into Norway and Sweden this morning by assuming control of Enron's offices in Oslo and Stockholm, The Financial Times reported.The Ohio-based firm, which last month acquired Enron's international coal trading operations in a deal worth about $35 million, said it had hired 35 of Enron's former traders, headed by Thor Lien. Terms were not disclosed."Adding Thor and his team immediately provides us with a proven wholesale platform in the Nordic region, extensive market expertise and a capability to utilize the interconnector that moves power between Germany and Denmark," said Hank Jones, head of AEP's European wholesale power business.According to the paper, the Nordic power market is one of the most mature deregulated markets in Europe but is one from which AEP has been absent to date. The group has instead focused on the UK market, where it last year bought Fiddlers Ferry and Ferrybridge, two of the country's largest power stations, from Edison Mission Energy of the U.S.
