[edit] History
Powergen was formed in 1990 when the Central Electricity Generating Board was split into three generating companies (Powergen, National Power and Nuclear Electric plc.) and electricity transmission company, National Grid Company. The Central Electricity Generating Board (CEGB) was the cornerstone of the British electricity industry for almost 50 years, from its nationalisation in 1947 to privatisation in the 1990s. ...
Powergen became a public limited company (PLC) wholly owned by the UK government. In March 1991 60% of Powergen was sold to private investors, followed by the remaining 40% in March 1995. It expanded considerably by acquiring the regional electricity company East Midlands Electricity and the supply business of TXU Energi it was eventualy taken over itself by E.ON in 2001. It then went on and bought the Distribution Network Operator Midlands Electricity in 2004 which was merged with its existing distribution company and rebranded as Central Networks. The enitre company was renamed as E.ON UK on July 5th 2004. Twelve Regional Electricity Companies (RECs) were formed on March 31, 1990 as part of the restructuring of the electricity system in England and Wales. ...
The Energy Group plc, a defunct British power generator and distributor, was originally a subsidiary of Hanson plc until its demerger in 1996. ...
