Judgement of the General Court in Joined Cases T-639\/14 RENV II, T-352\/15 RENV and T-740\/17 RENV: Dismissal of DEI\u2019s action for annulment against the Commission and \u201cMetlen Energy & Metals SA\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The General Court of the EU, in proceedings referred to it after a judgement on appeal delivered by the Court of Justice (CJEU) has decided whether the compromissory clause between DEI and \u201cMetlen Energy & Metals SA\u201d (formerly \u201cMytilinaios SA\u201d), which determined an electricity supply tariff, entailed the granting of State aid in favor of Metlen.<\/p>\n

The General Court held, contrary to DEI\u2019s arguments, that the electricity supply tariff established by the compromissory clause countersigned by DEI and confirmed by the arbitration award did not constitute a State aid towards Metlen.<\/p>\n

Accordingly, the General Court dismissed DEI\u2019s actions.<\/p>\n

In the above judgment, Metlen which intervened in support of the Commission in the above cases as well as in the appeal proceedings before the Court of Justice (see CJEU, judgment of 22.2.2024, C-701\/21 P), was represented before the General Court and the Court of Justice by the Law Firm \u201cChristianos & Partners\u201d.<\/p>\n
