Equinor sells $169 million stake in solar firm Scatec

Equinor sold 12.9 million shares in solar group Scatec for about NOK 1.6 billion ($169.31 million), completing a transaction first flagged on Monday. The sale is a routine portfolio move rather than an operational update, with limited immediate implications beyond the stock overhang and ownership shift. The deal is relevant to renewable energy ownership and capital allocation, but the article itself is largely factual and low impact.
