In summary, these concerns relate to (i) New Areva's alleged financial agility compared to its unaided competitors; (ii) the risk that EDF, which is one of Urenco's key customers, will favour New Areva for its enriched uranium requirements; (iii) the increased excess capacity on the European enrichment market, especially if New Areva were to decide to increase the capacity of its Georges Besse II plant or to expand in SWU trading; (iv) the continuation or even strengthening of the MOX fuel business, which competes with Urenco's conventional fuel even though Urenco believes it to be less competitive.
Komisjon märgib, et Prantsuse ametiasutused on tõendanud, et suuniste punktis 96 sätestatud läbipaistvusnõudeid järgitakse.
The Commission has already demonstrated, in recital 368, that New Areva will not be in a better financial position than Urenco after the restructuring.
Eeskätt kohustuvad Prantsuse ametiasutused tegema laiale avalikkusele kättesaadavaks läbipaistvust käsitlevas teatises [61] nõutava teabe.
This concern is therefore unfounded.
See teave on kättesaadav veebisaidil https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr või veebisaidil http://www.economie.gouv.fr/agence-participations-etat.
Moreover, the French authorities have indicated that the Areva Group's enrichment business, housed in the subsidiary SET, already had positive net cash flow in 2016, and this trend is set to continue in the period from 2017 to 2030.
PRANTSUSMAA VÕETUD KOHUSTUSED
In this regard, SET will contribute more to restoring the viability of the rest of the Areva Group through the scheduled payment of dividends than it will benefit from the effects of the aid.
Komisjon meenutab kohustusi, mis Prantsusmaa võttis käesoleva menetluse raames.
Nor does the Commission see any risk that EDF would favour New Areva NP to the detriment of Urenco for its supply of enriched material.
Prantsuse ametiasutused võtsid järgmised kohustused:
Firstly, there will be no capital link between EDF-controlled New Areva NP and New Areva which would justify EDF favouring the latter over its competitors.
Areva kontserni väljumine reaktoritega seotud tegevusvaldkondadest on täielik, seega ei jää ettevõtjatele Areva SA ja Nouvel Areva pärast komisjonile teatatud ümberkorralduskava elluviimist enam mingit kapitaliosalusel põhinevat seost ettevõtjaga Nouvel Areva NP;
The Commission notes in this regard that EDF does not appear to have favoured the Areva Group in the past, since Urenco currently satisfies a significant portion of EDF's enriched uranium requirements.
ümberkorraldusperioodi kestel ei suurenda Areva kontsern Georges Besse II tehase tootmisvõimsust, välja avatud olemasolevates lepingutes ettenähtud tsentrifuugide hankimine ja paigaldamine […];
Secondly and in turn, the absence of a capital link eliminates any incentive for New Areva to offer more advantageous conditions to New Areva NP than to another customer, because it will no longer be able to partially recoup the benefits as a shareholder that it would grant as a supplier.
Areva SA tegevus hõlmab üksnes sellist tegevust, mis on konkreetselt ette nähtud komisjonile teatatud ümberkorralduskavaga;
With regard to the increase in excess capacity on the European enrichment market, the Commission notes that the French authorities have undertaken to ensure that, during the restructuring period, the Areva Group does not increase the capacity of its Georges Besse II plant, with the exception of the acquisition and installation of centrifuges planned in its existing agreements […].
ümberkorraldusperioodi jooksul ei astu EDFi kontrolli all olev Nouvel Areva NP ja ettevõtja Nouvel Areva strateegilisse partnerlusse ega osale muus raamkokkuleppes, millega nähakse ette kaubanduskoostöö, mille raames eelistataks ettevõtjat Nouvel Areva olukorras, kus ettevõtja Nouvel Areva NP soovib koos tuumamaterjali tarnijaga esitada kliendile pakkumise turgudel, mida on kirjeldatud põhjendustes 344 ja 347 – kütuseelementide tarnimine ja uute reaktorite ehitamine.
The Commission therefore believes that the restructuring aid granted to the Areva Group will not be used to finance the increase in excess capacity on the European enrichment market.
See kohustus ei takista ettevõtjatel Nouvel Areva ja Nouvel Areva NP teha ühispakkumisi juhul, kui ettevõtja Nouvel Areva osutub valituks kaubanduslike ja tehniliste kriteeriumide alusel;
Trading, meanwhile, does not increase production capacity but, rather, optimises the existing capacities on the market.
Areva kontsern (Areva SA ja Nouvel Areva) ning nende kontrolli all olevad ettevõtjad ei omanda ümberkorraldusperioodi kestel otseselt ega kaudselt osalusi ettevõtjates, mis ei ole juba nende kontrolli all, välja arvatud põhjenduses 390 osutatud projektid.
Furthermore, the Areva Group has not expanded this activity in the past decade […].
See kohustus ei laiene ettevõtja Nouvel Areva omanduses olevate osaluste ja otseselt või kaudselt tema kontrolli all olevate osaluste omandamisele, mida tehakse selleks, et hallata i) reaktorite sulgemise fonde, mida Areva kontsern on kohustatud juhtima õigusaktidest või eeskirjadest tuleneva kohustuse alusel; ii) Areva kontserni töötajate pensionifonde; iii) oma likviidsete vahendite paigutamist;
On the issue of MOX, the Commission demonstrated in recitals 356 to 360 that the divestment of New Areva NP would have adverse effects on that segment's long-term growth, thereby increasing the size of the market accessible to producers of conventional fuels, such as Urenco.
Areva kontsern (Areva SA ja Nouvel Areva) ei kasuta saadavat toetust konkurentsieelisena oma toodete ja teenuste turustamisel.
There is therefore no justification for obtaining additional measures in this market segment.
KOKKUVÕTE
In a general sense, the Commission emphasises that the loss of synergies arising from the divestment of New Areva NP will generate opportunities for New Areva NP's competitors in the enrichment segment, especially in the specific circumstances described in recitals 353 and 360.
Prantsuse riigi osalemine Areva SA ja Nouvel Areva kapitali suurendamises kujutab endast ettevõtjate ümberkorraldamiseks antava riigiabiga 4,5 miljardi euro ulatuses.
In the light of these factors, the Commission does not believe compensatory measures, in addition to the divestment of New Areva NP and the commitments given by France, to be justified in the enrichment segment.
See abi on kooskõlas suunistes sätestatud kriteeriumidega ning on sellega seoses ka siseturuga kokkusobiv, kui leiab kinnitust reaalse ja ajakohase omapanuse olemasolu vähemalt poolte ümberkorraldamisega seotud kulude ulatuses, st kui osutub võimalikuks kõrvaldada käesoleva otsuse põhjenduses 318 ja artiklis 2 nimetatud kaks edasilükkavat tingimust.
With regard to back-end fuel-cycle operations (nuclear waste reprocessing and MOX production), the Areva Group holds a market share of around [50-100] % [60] on the reprocessing market and is currently the only company handling all spent-fuel reprocessing and recycling and MOX production operations.
Sellest tulenevalt ei või abi rakendada enne, kui need kaks tingimust on täidetud,
The restructuring aid does not create any obvious distortion of competition insofar as the Areva Group is the only operator in this segment.
ON VASTU VÕTNUD KÄESOLEVA OTSUSE:
The Commission concedes that MOX is a competitor of conventional fuel, for which New Areva will have competition from other suppliers.
Artikkel 1
As regards logistics, for example, in 2013 the Areva Group held a market share in terms of volume of around [0-50] % for the production of packaging needed for the dry storage and transportation of spent fuel (‘casks’), with the German company GNS holding [50-100] % of this market.
Käesoleva otsuse artiklis 1 osutatud abi andmine on lubatud järgmiste dokumentide saamisel:
On the decommissioning market, New Areva will have a market share of approximately [0-20] % and will be in competition with a large number of other companies (Onet, Vinci, Bouygues, Westinghouse, Amec, Nukem, Iberdrola, etc.).
ASNi järeldus Flamanville 3 EPR reaktori surveanuma detailidest süsiniku eraldumise probleemiga seotud kontrollikava tulemuste kohta, ilma et süsiniku eraldumise tõttu vaidlustataks kõnealuste detailide töökõlblikkust, või teise võimalusena komisjonile teatatud EDFi otsus seoses Nouvel Areva NP võõrandamisega, millega kõrvaldatakse Flamanville 3 projekti EPR reaktoriga seoses seatud edasilükkav tingimus, mis hõlmab selle reaktori surveanuma detailides tuvastatud süsiniku eraldumist;
No especially obvious distortion of competition has been brought to the attention of the Commission during the investigation into these markets, on which there is no excess capacity.
komisjoni heakskiit ettevõtjate EDFi ja Nouvel Areva NP koondumisele.
Specific additional measures for these markets are not, therefore, justified.
Artikkel 3
In light of the above, the Commission concludes that, following the divestment of New Areva NP by the Areva Group and the commitments given by France, no distortion of competition justifying an additional measure will exist on the markets on which the Areva Group will hold a significant position after the restructuring.
Areva kontserni ümberkorralduskava, millest Prantsusmaa teatas, viiakse täies ulatuses ellu.
Concluding its analysis of the measures taken to limit the distortions of competition created by the aid, the Commission notes the commitments given by the French authorities to comply with point 84(a) and (b) of the Guidelines.
Prantsusmaa esitab komisjonile poolaastaaruanded ümberkorralduskava nõuetekohase ellurakendamise kohta, Areva kontserni seisundi kohta turgudel, kus ta tegutseb, ning selle kohta, et Prantsusmaa on täitnud käesoleva otsusega võetud kohustused.
In this regard, point 84(a) of the Guidelines states that beneficiaries of restructuring aid must refrain from acquiring shares in any company during the restructuring period, except where indispensable to ensure the long-term viability of the beneficiary.
Need aruanded esitatakse kogu ümberkorraldusperioodi jooksul alates käesolevast otsusest teatamisest.
This obligation refers to acquisitions of shares made to expand the beneficiary's presence in existing or new markets via external growth, not to the rationalisation and use of existing means of production via internal growth.
Esimese aruande peab komisjon kätte saama kuue kuu möödumisel käesolevast otsusest teatamisest.
The Commission believes that, in this case, the creation of production joint ventures for the sole purpose of rationalising production facilities using existing assets, rather than acquiring and jointly exploiting new assets, cannot be considered an acquisition of shares, provided that the shareholders in the joint venture do not have individual drawing rights greater than their own contributions.
Prantsusmaa teavitab komisjoni käesoleva otsuse artiklis 2a osutatud sündmuste toimumisest.
Similarly, for the purpose of implementing point 84(a) of the Guidelines in this case, the acquisition of undertakings with a view to decommissioning any assets they may hold is not considered an acquisition of shares.
Artikkel 4
On the decommissioning market, […] the owner of an undertaking holding assets that are to be decommissioned — such as a disused nuclear power plant — asks the service providers wishing to take on the decommissioning to form a consortium for the purpose of acquiring the undertaking and its decommissioning provisions, and to use those provisions to decommission the assets.
Käesolev otsus on adresseeritud Prantsuse Vabariigile.
For the undertakings in the acquiring consortium, and especially for the Areva Group, this scenario represents a specific way of continuing to provide the services it already provides, rather than an acquisition of shares allowing the Areva Group to expand its presence via external growth.
Brüssel, 10. jaanuar 2017
In the light of the above, the French authorities have undertaken to ensure that, throughout the restructuring period, the Areva Group (Areva SA and New Areva) and the undertakings under its control refrain from acquiring shares, directly or indirectly, in any undertaking that is not already under its control, with the exception of the following projects:
Komisjoni nimel
The Commission considers these projects essential to restoring the viability of the Areva Group, for the following reasons.
Margrethe Vestager
First of all, the Commission notes that these projects contribute EUR […] to restoring the long-term viability (2017-2025) of the Areva Group.
ELT C 301, 19.8.2016, lk 2.
Since this figure is approximately the same as the annual EBITDA during this period, the Commission feels that these projects are essential for carrying out the restructuring plan.
Vt allmärkus 1.
Furthermore, some of these projects […] relate to the mining activities of the Areva Group.
Seda üksust kirjeldatakse käesoleva otsuse põhjenduses 33.
In this regard, the Areva Group will be faced with the closure of a number of large mines, for example in […].
Tuumareaktorist väljavõetud kasutatud tuumkütus sisaldab 94–95 % uraani (madal rikastustase) ja 1 % plutooniumi, mis mõlemad on ümber töödeldavad „uueks“ tuumkütuseks tuumaelektrijaamade jaoks segatud oksiidkütuse ( Mixed Oxyde Fuel, MOX, seguoksiidkütus) kujul.
However, the mining business is a […] contributor to New Areva's long-term viability, as already explained in recital 371.
Käesolevas otsuses edaspidi kasutatud mõiste „reaktoritega seotud tegevus“ hõlmab ka kütuseelemente, kui ei ole öeldud teisiti.
Given that economic cycles in this field are extremely long, it is essential for any business wishing to remain active therein in the long term to have an ongoing portfolio of mining projects at various stages of development.
Võttes arvesse ettevõtjate Areva NP, Areva TA ja Canberra hiljutist võõrandamist, ei ole nende ettevõtjate tegevus arvatud Areva kontserni 2015. aasta konsolideeritud käibe hulka.
The Areva Group's mining projects included in points (a) to (d) of recital 390 are mainly aimed at replacing the capacity that will be lost […].
Hinnang on tehtud 2015. aasta lõpus.
Moreover, the development of the activities of the Areva Group […], which is pursuing an ambitious nuclear energy development strategy, is also crucial to restoring its viability.
Konfidentsiaalne teave.
The projects in question take the form of joint ventures with the company […].
Lepingus kannab see tähtaeg nimetust „Provisional Take Over Date“.
Having analysed the projects […] listed under points (a), (d), (e), (g), (h), (j) and (q) of recital 390, the Commission believes that they are essential for the Areva Group's development strategy, which is itself crucial to the company's long-term viability.
Tegemist on kuupäevaga, millal juhul, kui lepingus sätestatud valmiduse ja teostamise tingimused on täidetud, antakse elektrijaam kliendile üle ja klient alustab elektritootmist.
The same argument applies to the Areva Group's development projects […].[…].
Varade lahutamine on toiming, millega eraldatakse ettevõttest võõrandamisele kuuluv vara või tegevusvaldkonnad, mis ei kuulu võõrandamisele, ja millega antakse neile vajaduse korral juriidiline ja tegevuslik iseseisvus, mis neil varem puudus.
These projects […] are referred to in points (o) and (p) of recital 390.
Areva kontsern on näiteks ette võtnud tuumkütuse muundamis- ja rikastamistehaste Comurhex II ja Georges Besse II kaasajastamise.
Another group of projects […] relates to […], which are dynamic markets on which the Areva Group must maintain a presence to ensure the success of its restructuring plan.
Toodud võlasumma vastab Areva kontserni brutovõlale, st arvesse ei ole võetud lühiajalisi käibevahendeid.
These projects are referred to in points (i) to (n) of recital 390.
Vt EDFi ja Areva kontserni 13. aprilli 2016. aasta pressiteated: www.edf.fr/groupe-edf/espaces-dedies/medias/tous-les-communiques-de-presse/epr-de-flamanville-etat-d-avancement-du-programme-d-essais-de-la-cuve ja www.areva.com/FR/actualites-10753/epr-de-flamanville-etat-d-avancement-du-programme-d-essais-de-la-cuve.html.
Finally, the project referred to under point (f) of recital 390 relating to […].
Areva kontserni ja Prantsuse ametiasutuste arvestuste kohaselt on 2019. aastal Nouvel Areva S&P netovõla/äritegevuse kogukasumi suhtarv […] ja S&P põhitegevuse rahavoo/netovõla suhtarv […].
The Commission may approve any other investment that proves to be indispensable to ensure the long-term viability of the Areva Group and is not a means of bypassing the obligation to limit the Group's presence on existing markets.
Nende kulude üksikasju ja nende katmiseks mõeldud abisumma suurust analüüsitakse käesoleva otsuse punktis 5.2.3.2.
The intention to make such an acquisition and the information allowing the Commission to verify whether these conditions are met and, where applicable, approve or not oppose the acquisition must be notified to the Commission within a reasonable time frame, as part of the process for monitoring the restructuring plan.
ELT C 249, 31.7.2014, lk 1.
Secondly, in line with point 84(b) of the Guidelines, the French authorities have undertaken to ensure that the Areva Group (Areva SA and New Areva) refrain from publicising State support as a competitive advantage when marketing its products and services.

CONCLUSIONS
2,5 miljardit eurot 100 % Nouvel Areva NP kapitali eest ja 60 miljonit eurot ettevõtte Adwen võõrandamise eest.
The subscription by the French State to the capital injections in Areva SA and New Areva constitute State aid for restructuring of EUR 4,5 billion.
See väide põhineb eeldusel, mille kohaselt Nouvel Areva NP võõrandamine EDFile toimub 15. novembril 2016 sõlmitud SPA lepingu alusel.
