MET Group is an independent management-owned company headquartered in Switzerland, with a substantial and expanding gas and power portfolio in Europe. Having actively traded with German counterparties for several years, MET – present in 14 European countries through local subsidiaries, and active in 25 national gas markets – has now established a physical presence in Germany.
On 29 December 2020, MET Group completed the acquisition of Gas-Union’s gas storage activities at four sites (Reckrod, Etzel, TGE, KGE), with a total working gas capacity of 3.4 terawatt hours (TWh). The storage assets provide an important addition to MET Group’s integrated energy portfolio, complementing its existing wholesale positions and supporting the build-up of its sales activities to end consumers through its 100% subsidiary MET Germany GmbH.
MET Group considers it a long overdue step to add physical assets and direct sales to end customers to its ongoing wholesale activities in the German market.
