新西兰能源公司Contact Energy已提出非约束性要约，拟以约4700万澳元收购King Country Energy剩余的24.98%股权，此举将使其完全拥有这家区域电力供应商及其五座水电站。
根据公告显示，Contact Energy通过其全资控股子公司King Country Energy Holdings目前持有King Country Energy约75%的股份。此次收购完成后，Contact将完全控制King Country Energy的五座水电站，这些电站总装机容量约为53兆瓦(MW，电力计量单位)，年均预期发电量约为190吉瓦时(GWh，电能计量单位)。 公告指出，King Country Energy的四座水电站位于King Country地区，一座位于Horowhenua地区。Contact目前负责运营和维护这些水电站。 King Country Trust（持有King Country Energy剩余股份的信托机构）已决定根据其信托契约条款进行特别所有权审查和公众咨询，以决定是否接受Contact的要约。
据透露，这一咨询程序预计很快启动，并将持续约一个月时间。 如果双方决定继续进行此次交易，预计将在2026年第二季度签署并完成买卖协议。公告还提到，交易对价预计将通过发行新股的方式支付，即向信托或其被提名人发行新的Contact股份。 此次交易完成后，Contact子公司King Country Energy Holdings将成为King Country Energy的唯一股东，进一步巩固Contact Energy在新西兰能源市场的地位。
