RWE secured contracts for 119 megawatts of onshore wind capacity in Germany on September 18, 2026, while RWE stock was trading at EUR 58.64 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 10:46 a.m. CEST, down 1.01 percent versus the prior close of EUR 59.24. The award adds two projects scheduled for commissioning in 2028, subject to final investment decisions.

Wind capacity expands by 119 megawatts

According to RWE on September 18, 2026, the Jüchen 3 wind farm received an 84-megawatt award and the Seedorf repowering project received a 35-megawatt award. RWE operates about 770 megawatts of onshore wind capacity in Germany, according to the same company release.

The projects add a concrete domestic growth step to RWE's renewables pipeline. The Seedorf project will replace five turbines totaling 9 megawatts with five modern turbines totaling 35 megawatts, while Jüchen 3 is planned on recultivated land at the former Garzweiler mine.

Raised guidance supports the investment case

RWE's first-half 2026 adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 3.0 billion, an increase of more than EUR 900 million from the first half of 2025, according to Yahoo Finance in the August 13, 2026 earnings transcript. Adjusted earnings per share rose more than 60 percent year over year to EUR 1.77 in the same period.

The company raised its 2026 adjusted EBITDA outlook to EUR 5.57-6.35 billion and its adjusted net income range to EUR 1.95-2.45 billion. The transcript also shows net debt of EUR 15.0 billion at the end of June 2026, giving investors a counterweight to the expansion narrative as capital spending remains substantial.

Analysts see room above EUR 72

finanzen.net reported on September 30, 2026 that seven experts rated RWE a Buy and that the average price target stood at EUR 72.21. The published table listed targets of EUR 68.50 from JPMorgan, EUR 72.00 from Berenberg and EUR 68.00 from UBS.

RWE also agreed on September 16, 2026 to acquire an additional 3 percent stake in M31, according to RWE. The transaction would make RWE the majority shareholder of M31 and lift its pro rata Amprion exposure to 58 percent, subject to regulatory approvals.
