Brussels, 17 October 2024
The European Commission has approved, under the EU Merger Regulation, the acquisition of joint control of West Burton Flexible Generation by EP UK Investments Limited (‘EPUKI’) and TotalEnergies Gas & Power Holdings UK Limited (‘TTE’), all of the United Kingdom.
The transaction relates primarily to the generation and wholesale supply of electricity and the provision of balancing and ancillary services in the United Kingdom.
The Commission concluded that the notified transaction would not raise competition concerns, given the limited impact on the European Economic Area. The notified transaction was examined under the simplified merger review procedure.
More information is available on the Commission’s competition website, in the public case register under the case number M.11748.
