International funds have shown an interest in investing in Edipower, an Italian regional power producer, an executive at one of Edipower's shareholders said Friday.

The funds would invest in Edipower by taking part in a reserved capital increase, said Giuliano Zuccoli, who heads the management board of A2A SpA (A2A.MI), MF-Dow Jones reports.

A2A is a regional utility that controls a holding company called Delmi. Delmi is poised to take a 70% stake in Edipower following a recently brokered deal with Electricite de France SA (EDF.FR).

Under the deal, EDF will take control of power utility Edison SpA (EDN.MI), while Delmi will take control of Edipower, a division of Edison.
