Advising Vattenfall in its divestment of the German
lignite business consisting of four open - cast mines and five power plants.
The Swedish Green Party's Asa Romson, environment minister as well as deputy prime minister, told reporters in Stockholm last month that although her party would prefer to see Vattenfall's
lignite business shut down rather than sold, stopping a deal would require majority support in parliament, and that support isn't there.
The disposal includes its 8,000 - megawatt strong
lignite business, packaged together with mines and 10 hydro plants thrown in as an optional sweetener.
