Press Release: Mergers: Commission clears proposed acquisition of Alpiq’s energy technology supply business by French rival VINCI Group

The European Commission has cleared under the EU Merger regulation the proposed acquisition by VINCI of the energy technology supply business (EVT Business) of the German group Alpiq. The Commission concluded that the operation would not raise competition concerns because it will not significantly alter the market structure in any of the markets where the merging parties' activities overlap.
