Quantification of the compensatory measures
Vendar pa je velikost nabora odvisna od prizadevanj družbe Nouvel Areva NP za ponudbo in uporabo te tehnologije v prihodnosti.
The French authorities pointed out that ‘measures to limit distortions of competition should address both moral hazard concerns and possible distortions in the markets where the beneficiary operates’, taking into account ‘the characteristics of the market concerned’ [21].
Odločitev ponudnika elektrike za prilagoditev reaktorja za gorivo MOX je odvisna od njegove sposobnosti zagotavljanja učinkovitosti reaktorja in povezanih stroškov.
In the case in question, any risk of moral hazard could be excluded in their view since the past losses had been borne by the existing shareholders of the Areva Group, in particular the State, through provisions and asset write-downs.
Ta dva dejavnika sta odvisna od kakovosti sodelovanja med načrtovalcem reaktorja, načrtovalcem gorivnih elementov in dobaviteljem goriva MOX.
Furthermore, in the light of the characteristics of the relevant markets, the State aid preserved, more than it restricted, effective competition as most of the markets in which New Areva would operate had an oligopolistic structure, which would be exacerbated by the disappearance of an operator.
Doslej je bilo to sodelovanje mogoče, ker je skupina Areva centralizirano odločala med različnimi interesi teh subjektov.
According to the French authorities, a comparison of the markets in the counterfactual scenario without aid clearly showed that only the continued presence of the Areva Group allowed effective competition in the market to be maintained.
Družba Nouvel Areva NP […] za spodbujanje povečanja števila reaktorjev z gorivom MOX pod pogojem, da […].
Thus, the divestment of New Areva NP was more than sufficient as a compensatory measure, particularly as it imposed short-term losses of synergy on the Areva Group, and in the medium-term deprived it of the particularly profitable development prospects described below in Section 4.4.2.
Doslej je pripadnost isti skupini omogočala dogovore znotraj skupine […] za usklajevanje različnih interesov dveh dejavnosti.
The divestment of New Areva NP penalises all of New Areva's activities over the long term
To v prihodnosti ne bo več mogoče in na dolgi rok je treba predvidevati velike izgube sinergije.
Front-end operations
Do izgube sinergije bo prišlo tudi pri segmentih razgradnje in logistike.
The integrated Areva Group had an integrated marketing and sales force for natural uranium, conversion services, enrichment, and design and manufacture of fuel assemblies, and any possible combination of these products and services.
Dejavnosti razgradnje so močno integrirane z dejavnostmi zasnove reaktorjev in izvajanja storitev na lokaciji objekta.
Integrating the sale of fuel assemblies with front-end services gave the Areva Group a significant information and trading advantage.
Danes družba Areva NP izvaja logistične dejavnosti na dva načina: prevoz kontaminiranih vzdrževalnih orodij in prevoz gorivnih elementov.
Electricity generators usually had a single buyer for the supply of fuel assemblies.
Te storitve znotraj skupine bi lahko vključila družba Nouvel Areva NP ali pa bodo v prihodnosti predmet javnih razpisov.
Because of the low substitutability of fuel assemblies, a supplier of assemblies was a key partner for an electricity generator, which was not the case of a front-end supplier, whose products and services were fungible.
Trga za razgradnjo in logistiko sta dinamična trga, na katerih skupina Areva […].
The French authorities gave the example of an electricity generator […] to which the Areva Group had been able to expand its sales to include front-end products and services as part of an invitation to tender for fuel assemblies.
Vsestransko strateško in industrijsko partnerstvo med družbama Nouvel Areva in EDF ne bi omogočilo obnovitve sinergije, ki trenutno obstaja zaradi integracije družbe Areva NP v skupini Areva
Today, [5-10] out of every 10 customers were customers of both Areva NC and Areva NP.
Francoski organi so Komisiji predložili memorandum o soglasju med družbo EDF in skupino Areva z dne 28. julija 2016.
Furthermore, the unbundling of New Areva NP's activities would make logistical optimisation more difficult.
Priloga 7 tega memoranduma zadeva oblikovanje vsestranskega strateškega in industrijskega partnerstva.
In future New Areva would have to work with New Areva NP's fuel assembly manufacturers in the same way as with all the other American and European manufacturers and would therefore miss out on logistical improvements, e.g. delivery costs would increase and its ability to fine-tune its production of enriched uranium would be reduced.
Po mnenju francoskih organov to partnerstvo ne more obnoviti izgubljene sinergije […].
The French authorities also explained that any supplier of front-end products and services supported by a supplier of fuel assemblies and reactors had an undeniable competitive advantage for tenders at the beginning of the cycle.
[…] francoski organi poudarjajo, da družbi Nouvel Areva NP in Nouvel Areva vstopata v odnos stranka/dobavitelj.
A buyer of a new plant would generally require the contractor to supply the first reactor core as well as possible reloads.
Zato nobeno strateško partnerstvo ne more znova ustvariti načina sprejemanja odločitev in sinergije znotraj skupine iz preteklosti.
By being integrated with Areva NP, the Areva Group had automatic access to this for its front-end operations.
Vendar pa so se zaradi ugovorov Komisije glede tega francoski organi zavezali, da v obdobju prestrukturiranja družba Nouvel Areva NP pod nadzorom družbe EDF in družba Nouvel Areva ne bosta sklenili nobenega strateškega partnerstva ali okvirnega sporazuma o gospodarskem sodelovanju, pri katerem bi imela prednost družba Nouvel Areva v primerih, ko bi družba Nouvel Areva NP želela stranki predlagati integrirano ponudbo z dobaviteljem jedrskega materiala na trgih, ki so opredeljeni v uvodnih izjavah 344 in 347, tj. v primerih dobave gorivnih elementov in gradnje novih reaktorjev.
The Areva Group was also able to negotiate better terms and conditions for its uranium, since such negotiations were generally conducted privately, without an open procedure.
Kljub tej zavezi lahko družbi Nouvel Areva in Nouvel Areva NP oblikujeta skupne ponudbe, če je bila družba Nouvel Areva izbrana na podlagi poslovnih in tehničnih meril.
Finally, this type of contract allowed a commercial relationship to be established, including in markets which are difficult to access, such as China.
Francoski organi se zavezujejo, da skupina Areva sprejme ukrepe v zvezi z ravnanjem iz točke 84 smernic
This competitive advantage was reflected in the contracts negotiated by the Areva Group for the reactors in OL3 and Taishan 1 and 2 […].
Francoski organi opozarjajo na pomembnost partnerstev na področju jedrske energije in so se zavezali, da v obdobju prestrukturiranja skupina Areva (Areva SA in Nouvel Areva) in podjetja pod njenim nadzorom ne bodo neposredno ali posredno kupovala deležev nobenega podjetja, ki ni že pod njihovim nadzorom, razen nujnih projektov za obnovo sposobnosti preživetja skupine Areva.
In the case of Taishan 1 and 2, for example, […].
Ta zaveza ne velja za nakupe deležev, ki jih družba Nouvel Areva in podjetja pod njenim neposrednim ali posrednim nadzorom izvedejo za finančno poslovodenje (i) skladov za razgradnjo, ki jih mora v skladu z zakonskimi in regulativnimi obveznostmi upravljati skupina Areva; (ii) pokojninskih skladov za osebje skupine Areva; (iii) naložb likvidnih sredstev.
Such terms and conditions could not have been negotiated without the benefits of integration: by comparison, the Areva Group could only enter into contracts […].
Francoski organi so se prav tako zavezali, da skupina Areva (Areva SA in Nouvel Areva) podpore, do katere je upravičena, pri trženju svojih izdelkov in storitev ne bo predstavljala kot konkurenčne prednosti.
All future sales of reactors by New Areva NP thus represented missed opportunities for New Areva to sell front-end material under the best possible terms and conditions.
Pripombe francoskih organov na pripombe zainteresiranih strani
According to the French authorities, New Areva NP would be well placed to win the projects […].
Pripombe družbe TVO in skupine Siemens
New Areva NP could also aspire to the projects […].
Francoski organi ocenjujejo, da bo lahko družba Areva SA financirala vse svoje predvidene potrebe.
On account of the length of nuclear cycles, however, these lost synergies would not be felt until after the end of the period for which the Areva Group had provided financial projections.
Po eni strani so domneve, da skupina Areva z načrtom prestrukturiranja ogroža uspešen zaključek projekta OL3, nepravilne.
The lost synergies were particularly evident in the early life of a reactor, but they were also felt throughout its lifetime.
Uspešnost tega projekta je bistvena za vse subjekte, ki so del prestrukturiranja: za družbo Areva SA, pa tudi za družbi Nouvel Areva (za dobavo goriva) in Nouvel Areva NP (za predstavitev tega prvega reaktorja EPR).
Some electricity generators preferred to use a single tender combining purchase of uranium and conversion, enrichment and assembly services, including for reactors whose closure was already planned (end of life).
Areva SA bo imela vsa potrebna operativna sredstva, ki ne bodo predmet razmejitve in takojšnjih vloženih sredstev v družbo Nouvel Areva NP, za uspešno dokončanje projekta in vsi dvomi družbe TVO glede tega morajo biti odpravljeni.
Lastly, the end of integration would make it more difficult to develop an integrated chain for the recycling of reprocessed uranium, as this required a high level of logistical coordination between the supplier of fuel assemblies (New Areva NP) and the supplier of reprocessing services (New Areva).
Francoski organi poudarjajo predvsem obstoj […] posebnega sodelovanja med družbama Areva NP in Nouvel Areva NP, kar družbi Areva NP omogoča, da družbo Nouvel Areva NP zaprosi za pomoč, ko bo to potrebno […].
All these lost synergies would penalise New Areva and benefit its competitors.
Po drugi strani pa so francoski organi ustrezno in previdno ocenili potrebe družbe Areva SA.
By remaining integrated, the Areva Group would have been ideally placed to take advantage of the expected market recovery, in particular because of its upgraded equipment.
Glede stroškov zaključka projekta OL3 je ocena skupine Areva primerljiva ali celo previdnejša od ocene družbe TVO, razen glede […], vendar francoski organi zavračajo […], ker tukaj po njihovem mnenju verodostojnost ni zagotovljena.
A sizeable market was opening up, for example, in managing end-of-life reactors for electricity generators.
Francoski organi nimajo pripomb na oceno skupine Siemens, ki na tej ravni agregacije ne omogoča podrobne analize.
However, owing to the expected loss of synergies, the French authorities and the Areva Group were focusing on […].
Glede odškodnine, do katere lahko pride zaradi morebitne odločbe v arbitražnem sporu, […].
In contrast, New Areva's competitors would be able to take advantage of the opportunities created by the break-up of the Areva Group, including in the supply of fuel to new reactors.
Po mnenju francoskih organov bi bilo povečanje zneska pomoči za zagotovitev plačila odškodnine tretjim stranem, do katere lahko pride v okviru spora z upravičencem do pomoči, popolnoma neprimerno in neskladno s cilji in duhom pravil o pomoči za prestrukturiranje.
New Areva would have to take on competitors which were integrated, like Rosatom, or in the process of vertical integration, like KHNP, Toshiba/Westinghouse and CNNC.
Prvič, tovrstno tveganje ni navedeno v opredelitvi tveganj, ki jih je treba upoštevati pri določitvi najslabšega primera.
Back-end operations
Smernice se nanašajo le na makroekonomske in tržne dejavnike.
The divestment of New Areva NP would be […] for New Areva's operations in recycling and processing spent fuel.
Drugič, takšno povečanje pomoči bi bilo v nasprotju z načeloma sorazmernosti in omejitve pomoči na najmanjši znesek.
MOX sales depended on a fleet of light water reactors on the market that could be operated with MOX fuel assemblies.
Tretjič, argumenti družbe TVO in skupine Siemens pravzaprav vodijo k temu, da država zagotovi solventnost njunega morebitnega solidarnega dolžnika/sodolžnika, kar bi se obravnavalo kot državna pomoč skupini Siemens in družbi TVO.
The size of this fleet depended on the efforts New Areva NP was willing to make to propose and roll out the technology in the future.
Vendar je Komisija še posebej poudarila, da se državna poroštva, ki zadevajo domnevne spore, obravnavajo kot državna pomoč [22] in je že izključila načelo njihove združljivosti [23].
The decision by an electricity generator to ‘mox’ a reactor depended on its ability to maintain the performance of its reactor and associated costs.
Četrtič, argumenti skupine Siemens in družbe TVO so nedosledni v tem, da ne vključujejo možnosti pozitivnega izida za Konzorcij.
These two factors, in turn, depended on good cooperation between the designer of the reactor, the designer of the assemblies and the supplier of the moxed material.
Petič, v primeru neugodne arbitražne odločbe […].
To date, this cooperation had been possible because of the Areva Group's ability to act as a central arbitrator between the differing interests of these entities.
Glede […].
New Areva NP thus […] to promote an increase in the number of MOX reactors in so far as […].
Francoski organi so navedli več argumentov.
Until now, being part of the same group had enabled intra-group agreements […] capable of aligning the differing interests of the two operations.
Glede […].
This would no longer be the case in the future, and significant losses of synergy were therefore likely in the long term.
Problematika segregacije ogljika, povezana z regulativo, se ureja v obstoječem parku družbe EDF.
The lost synergies would also be felt in the decommissioning and logistics segments.
Urad ASN je odobril ponovni zagon celotnega nabora reaktorjev v delujočem francoskem parku z uparjalniki, proizvedenimi na lokaciji Le Creusot (pri katerih je bila ugotovljena problematika segregacije ogljika), in osmih od dvanajstih reaktorjev z uparjalniki, ki jih proizvaja japonski partner družbe Areva NP.
Decommissioning was highly integrated with reactor design and the supply of services to the installed base.
Prav tako do zdaj niso bile ugotovljene nepravilnosti pri primarni zanki v projektu Tajšan.
The logistics operations were currently customers of Areva NP in two respects: for the shipment of contaminated maintenance tools and for the shipment of fuel assemblies.
V vsakem primeru je pogodbena odgovornost skupine Areva s pogodbo omejena na [0–1 milijardo] EUR za projekt Tajšan.
These intra-group services were likely to be either brought in house by New Areva NP or put out to competition in the future.
[…], z vsako zahtevo je treba predložiti dokaz o posamezni škodi, tj. o dejanskih varnostnih pomanjkljivostih pri delu z visokim tveganjem za okvaro.
Decommissioning and logistics were both dynamic markets, in which the Areva Group […].
Glede vseh zadev, zaradi katerih prihaja do pomislekov v zvezi s civilno odgovornostjo skupine Areva, so francoski organi Komisijo obvestili, da […].
The overall strategic and industrial partnership between New Areva and EDF would not allow the synergies currently associated with Areva NP's integration within the Areva Group to be restored
Glede argumenta skupine Siemens, da bi lahko družba Areva SA s predvidenimi sredstvi imela najvišji teoretični znesek za kritje vseh teoretično možnih tveganj, francoski organi poudarjajo, da so vsi primeri prakse odločanja Komisije, na katerih temelji sklepanje skupine Siemens, postopki, začeti v začasnem okviru pomoči za prestrukturiranje finančnih podjetij v okviru gospodarske in finančne krize.
The French authorities had provided the Commission with the Memorandum of Understanding of 28 July 2016 between EDF and the Areva Group.
Tako sklepanje po analogiji skupine Siemens je po mnenju francoskih organov v tem primeru neučinkovito.
Annex 7 thereof concerned the creation of an overall strategic and industrial partnership.
Slednji prav tako navajajo, da najslabši scenarij glede na smernice ne more pokrivati vseh teoretično možnih tveganj, vendar se mora obravnavati kot možen dogodek.
According to the French authorities, the partnership was not likely to recreate lost synergies […].
V zvezi z argumentom skupine Siemens, da bi bila podkapitalizacija družbe Areva SA v nasprotju z načelom ustrezne porazdelitve bremena iz smernic, francoski organi opozarjajo, da to načelo velja le za delničarje in podrejene upnike, ki ne bodo neupravičeno zaščiteni s pomočjo.
[…] the French authorities emphasised that New Areva NP and New Areva were about to enter into a customer/supplier relationship.
Pripombe družbe Urenco
Consequently, no strategic partnership could reproduce the strength of the intra-group trade-offs and synergies of the past.
Francoski organi navajajo, da je družba Urenco veliko prispevala k presežku zmogljivosti na trgu obogatitve urana po nesreči v Fukušimi.
Nevertheless, in response to the Commission's objections on this point, the French authorities had undertaken to ensure that, during the restructuring period, New Areva NP — under the supervision of EDF and New Areva — would not enter into any strategic partnership or other framework agreement for commercial cooperation which was designed to benefit New Areva in cases where New Areva NP would wish to make a customer an integrated offer with a nuclear material supplier, in the markets identified in recitals 344 and 347 — supply of fuel assemblies and construction of new reactors.
Prispevek družbe Urenco k svetovni zmogljivosti obogatitve se je med letoma 2007 in 2015 podvojil, medtem ko se je prispevek skupine Areva zmanjšal.
This undertaking did not prevent New Areva and New Areva NP from making joint offers, provided that New Areva had been chosen on the basis of commercial and technical criteria.
Domnevno izkrivljanje konkurence
The French authorities undertake to ensure that the Areva Group takes the behavioural measures referred to in point 84 of the Guidelines
Francoski organi navajajo, da državna pomoč ne bo izkrivljala konkurence, temveč bo na dolgi rok spodbujala konkurenčnost.
While reiterating the importance of partnerships in the nuclear field, the French authorities had undertaken that, during the restructuring period, the Areva Group (Areva SA and New Areva) and the companies under its control would refrain from acquiring, directly or indirectly, shares in any company which was not already under its control, with the exception of projects indispensable for restoring the Areva Group's viability.
Skupina Areva je na trgih logistike in razgradnje razmeroma slabo prisotna, zato s pomočjo ne bo prišlo do nikakršnega izkrivljanja konkurence.
This undertaking did not apply to shares acquired by New Areva and the companies directly or indirectly controlled by it for the purposes of the financial management of (i) decommissioning funds which the Areva Group was obliged to manage under a legal or regulatory obligation, (ii) pension funds for Areva Group staff, (iii) liquidity investments.
Vendar pa skupina Areva edina na svetu upravlja obrat za predelavo na industrijski ravni in njena ohranitev na tem področju ne more škodovati konkurenci, ki ne obstaja.
They had also undertaken to ensure that the Areva Group (Areva SA and New Areva) would refrain from publicising the support it received as a competitive advantage when marketing its products and services.
Na področjih rudarstva, pretvorbe in obogatitve pri zelo skoncentriranih tržnih strukturah je skupina Areva edina evropska skupina, ki je pomembna na področjih rudarstva in pretvorbe.
Observations by the French authorities on the comments by interested parties
Umik skupine Areva s teh področij bi zaradi posledične še večje koncentracije deloval protikonkurenčno.
Comments by TVO and Siemens
Na področju obogatitve pa skupina Areva zaradi državne pomoči ne bo neupravičeno okrepljena.
The French authorities considered that Areva SA would be able to finance all its forecast requirements.
Prvič, francoski organi poudarjajo, da sposobnost skupine Areva za sklepanje pogodb o storitvah obogatitve ni povezana z njeno finančno oceno, temveč z drugimi dejavniki, kot so cena dobave, prožnost pogodb, kakovost logistike itd. Drugič, hčerinska družba skupine Areva na področju obogatitve (Société d'Enrichissement du Tricastin, v nadaljnjem besedilu: SET) je že dobičkonosna in finančno samostojna, […].[…], ta dejavnost bo bolj prispevala k obnovitvi sposobnosti preživetja prestrukturirane skupine Areva, kot bo sama imela koristi od pomoči.
On the one hand, it was incorrect to suggest that the Areva Group was jeopardising the smooth finalisation of OL3 through the restructuring plan.
Tretjič, družba Areva že vsaj 10 let ni trgovala s storitvami obogatitve, […].
The success of the project was essential for all parties to the restructuring: Areva SA, of course, but also New Areva (for the supply of fuel) and New Areva NP (for the demonstration value of this first EPR).
Izravnalni ukrepi
Areva SA would therefore have all the necessary operational resources — which would not be carved out and diverted immediately to New Areva NP — to successfully complete the project.
Francoski organi se sklicujejo na trditev iz svojih pripomb z dne 12. septembra 2016 in opozarjajo, da bi izguba sinergije, povezane z integriranim modelom, negativno vplivala tako na dejavnosti začetka in konca cikla kot tudi splošnejše na vse dejavnosti v celotnem življenjskem ciklu reaktorja.
This should dispel all TVO's doubts on this matter.
Odprodaja družbe Nouvel Areva NP je torej ustrezen ukrep.
In particular, the French authorities stressed the existence of […] specific cooperation between Areva NP and New Areva NP, allowing Areva NP to call on New Areva NP as soon as necessary […].
Iz navedenih razlogov v teh pripombah strateško partnerstvo z družbo EDF ne bo obnovilo te sinergije in dejstvo, da bo Francija delničar obeh skupin, ne bo spremenilo ničesar, ker sta skupini neodvisna gospodarska subjekta s sposobnostjo samostojnega odločanja.
On the other hand, the needs of Areva SA had been properly estimated by the French authorities, in a conservative manner.
Glede različnih ukrepov, ki jih priporoča družba Urenco, francoski organi trdijo naslednje:
As regards the costs of finalising OL3, the Areva Group's estimate was comparable, or even more conservative, than that of TVO, except for […], but the French authorities rejected […], which in their view completely lacked credibility.
zahteva družbe Urenco glede zaveze družbe EDF za objavo odprtega razpisa je dejansko in pravno neupravičena.
The French authorities did not comment on the estimate of Siemens, which could not be analysed in detail at that level of aggregation.
Francija ne more ničesar zahtevati od družbe EDF, ki je v tem postopku državne pomoči tretja stran.
As regards the damages which might result from an unfavourable outcome of the arbitration proceedings, […].
Družba EDF kot samostojni gospodarski subjekt nima nikakršne spodbude za dajanje prednosti družbi Nouvel Areva.
According to the French authorities, it would be entirely inappropriate and contrary to the objectives and spirit of the rules on restructuring aid to increase the amount of aid in order to guarantee to third parties the payment of damages which they might be awarded in an action brought against the beneficiary of the aid.
Predhodni dogodek iz koncentracije družb Framatome/Siemens/Cogema ni relevanten, ker je ukrep zadeval gorivne elemente z velikimi (zlasti regulativnimi) ovirami za vstop na trg in ker se država pravno ne more več zavezovati v imenu družbe EDF;
First, this type of contingency did not fall within the definition of the risks to be taken into account in establishing the adverse scenario.
ločeno računovodstvo (angl. ring-fencing) za dejavnosti obogatitve je odvečno glede na to, da je družba SET že finančno samostojna.
