Innogy says looking for co-investors for British wind farm

ESSEN, Germany, March 12 (Reuters) - German energy group Innogy is currently studying numerous options for the ownership structure of Triton Knoll, a planned 2 billion pound ($2.8 billion) offshore wind farm in Britain, its chief executive said.

"The current plan is to issue shares to co-investors," Uwe Tigges said in a speech at the group's annual press conference.

Sources told Reuters last month that the project has drawn interest from a number of infrastructure and pension funds, including Australia's Macquarie, Switzerland's Partners Group and Denmark's PFA Pension.

Innogy parent RWE (IOB: 0FUZ.IL - news) and rival E.ON over the weekend announced plans to divide up the operations of the Germany energy company.
