Sembcorp Ind bags $214m from Bournemouth Water sale, starts work on $300m China wind farm

Its renewable energy business is gaining steam.

Sembcorp Industries has bagged $214m in cash proceeds from the divestment of its 100% stake in Sembcorp Bournemouth Water (SBW), a holding entity involved in the operation of a regulated municipal water business
based in Bournemouth, UK.

SBW was snapped up by Pennon Group for an enterprise value of approximately S$393 million (£191.5 million)
with cash proceeds from the sale of approximately $214 million (£104.5 million).

In a separate announcement, Sembcorp Industries also revealed that it will commence work on a $300m (RMB1.3b) wind farm in Laoshibeihe this year.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
