Owner groups' press releases
Dated facts from the press releases of 100 of the largest owner groups in the wedge (power plant owners by MW in NL, GB and DE, the largest battery and solar developers in DE and NL, TenneT, and the 13 data center operators with the most data centers there), published on each group's own newsroom: acquisitions and sales of plants, sites and data centers, new sites, permits, grid connection agreements, closures and conversions. Each fact names the group, the asset and place as the release writes them, the event type and date, MW or ha where the release gives them, and the release's URL (NL, GB, DE). Rare Context republishes 345 facts from Owner groups' press releases under Facts only, each linked to its release, linked to owners and places.
