Genesis Energy Limited ( (DE:1G6) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Genesis Energy, along with New Zealand’s three other major electricity generators, is exploring market options to maintain national energy security following a challenging winter in 2024. They have agreed to investigate keeping the Huntly Power Station Rankine Units operational for longer than planned to address ‘dry-year risk’ as the country increases wind and solar energy production. This could involve new commercial arrangements and strategic fuel reserves, potentially extending operations until the early 2030s, subject to regulatory approval.
