Commission sends out more than 200 surveys in energy probe
EU regulators have sent out more than 200 questionnaires to companies and government agencies as part of an investigation into state subsidies offered to avoid power blackouts, the bloc's competition chief said on Monday (28 September).
The move follows the launch of a probe in April, with the European Commission targeting Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Spain and Sweden on their schemes to guarantee supply during peak periods.
