1.
On 7 July 2005, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to
Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertakings Electricité de France S.A.
(‘EDF’, France) and AEM S.p.A. (‘AEM’, Italy) acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council
Regulation joint control of Edison S.p.A. (‘Edison’, Italy) by way of purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— for EDF: active in the generation, transmission, distribution, supply, and trade of electricity and related

services, mainly in France but with large presence also across the EEA;

— for AEM: active in the utility services sector and, in particular, in the generation, transmission, distribu-
tion, trading and sale of electricity and in the distribution and sale of gas and heat, mainly in Italy;

— for Edison: active in the generation, transmission, and supply of electricity and the production, trans-

portation, distribution and supply of natural gas, mainly in Italy.

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the

3.
scope of Regulation (EC) No 139/2004. However, the final decision on this point is reserved.

The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed
