Comisia Europeană deschide o "anchetă aprofundată" pe hotărârea prin care România este obligată să plătească despăgubiri de peste 42 de milioane de euro către 10 investitori în energie
The European Commission has launched an in-depth investigation into an arbitration ruling requiring Romania to compensate ten energy investors. This inquiry will assess the compatibility of the ruling with EU state aid rules, following Romania's modifications to its renewable energy support scheme. The Commission's preliminary view suggests that the arbitration decision constitutes state aid incompatible with the internal market. The investigation allows Romania and interested parties to submit comments, while the legality of intra-EU arbitration remains under scrutiny. The case highlights the importance of reliable support mechanisms for renewable energy investments in the EU.
