Press Release: Mergers: Commission approves acquisition of Slovenske Elektrarne by Enel

The European Commission on 26 April 2005 cleared, under the EU Merger Regulation, the proposed acquisition by the Italian energy company Enel of the Slovak main producer and supplier of electricity Slovenske Elektrarne (SE). The Commission concluded that there were no overlaps between the merging parties' activities and as such the acquisition would not significantly impede effective competition in the EEA or any substantial part of it.
