Dutch renewables developer Nuon is to change its name to match its Swedish parent company Vattenfall.
Nuon, which was acquired by Vattenfall in 2009, will gradually disappear from the market as a brand.

Vattenfall chief executive Magnus Hall said: “We retain the good of Nuon, and we reinforce that with the advantages that Vattenfall Netherlands brings: strength, scale and expertise – we won the tender for the first subsidy-free offshore wind farm, Hollandse Kust Zuid.”
Nuon director Peter Smink said: “The economies of scale and the expertise of Vattenfall are essential.”
“Vattenfall’s recently formulated ambition to make fossil-free living within a generation possible fits in seamlessly with this,” he added.
