    Appeal brought on 28 February 2023 by Swissgrid AG against the order of the General Court (Third Chamber) delivered on 21 December 2022 in Case T-127/21, Swissgrid v Commission

    (Case C-121/23 P)

    (2023/C 127/35)

    Language of the case: English

    Parties

    Appellant: Swissgrid AG (represented by: P. De Baere, P. L'Ecluse, K. T'Syen and V. Lefever, avocats)

    Other party to the proceedings: European Commission

    Form of order sought

    The appellant claim that the Court should:

    set aside the order under appeal;

    dismiss the Commission’s plea of inadmissibility and declare the action for annulment admissible, and refer the case back to the General Court for judgment on the merits of the action;

    reserve judgment as to the costs.

    Pleas in law and main arguments

    In support of the appeal, the appellant relies on three pleas in law.

    First plea: the General Court erred in law by applying an incorrect legal test for deciding whether the decision contained in a letter of 17 December 2020 signed by the Director of the Commission’s Directorate-General for Energy (‘the contested decision’) constitutes a challengeable act under Article 263 TFEU.

    Second plea: the General Court erred in in law by asserting that Articles 1(6) and 1(7) of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/2195 of 23 November 2017 establishing a guideline on electricity balancing (1) do not confer rights upon the appellant, which are capable of being affected by the contested decision.

    Third plea: the order under appeal lacks an adequate statement of reasons to support the determinative finding that Article 1(7) of Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/2195 does not confer any rights on the appellant.


    (1)  OJ 2017 L 312, p. 6.
