Verbund’s CEO Michael Strugl unveiled a €100 billion investment plan to expand clean power generation, transmission capacity and storage by 2040, reinforcing long-term growth and government support for renewable infrastructure (Bloomberg).
Austria’s new coalition has pledged to lower grid costs by expanding the transmission network and streamlining investment approvals, measures that should bolster Verbund’s regulated grid segment and reduce project delays (Reuters).
Severe reductions in Alpine snow cover and milder winter weather cut Europe’s hydropower by over one-third, tightening electricity supply and driving up wholesale prices—conditions that enhance revenue potential for hydropower operators like Verbund (Reuters).
Austria’s spring snow-fed hydropower output plunged 44%, the steepest decline in Europe, leaving Verbund’s Q1 hydro coefficient at just 0.83 and contributing to an 18.1% drop in EBITDA year-on-year as core generation faltered (Reuters).
Austria’s far-right and conservative parties plan to extend a windfall profits levy on power and energy companies through 2025, crystallizing regulatory uncertainty and posing a potential €50–100 million drag on Verbund’s earnings next year (Reuters).
The incoming coalition intends to extract an extra €430 million in dividends from state-owned firms beyond ordinary expectations, including from Verbund, potentially constraining its ability to retain cash for reinvestment and grid modernization (Reuters).
