Prior notification of a concentration

(Case COMP/M.6820 — EQT Infrastructure II/E.ON Energy from Waste)

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(Text with EEA relevance)

2013/C 36/12

1.

On 1 February 2013, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which EQT Infrastructure II (‘EQT’, The Netherlands), acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation sole control over E.ON Energy from Waste AG (‘EEW’, Germany), currently directly wholly-owned by E.ON SE, by way of a purchase of shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

for EQT: investment fund,

for EEW: private company that owns and/or operates energy from waste plants in Germany, Luxembourg and The Netherlands that, using thermal treatment, convert the energy potential of waste into electricity, district heating and process steam.

3.

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the EC Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under the EC Merger Regulation (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in the Notice.

4.

The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed operation to the Commission.

Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication. Observations can be sent to the Commission by fax (+32 22964301), by email to COMP-MERGER-REGISTRY@ec.europa.eu or by post, under reference number COMP/M.6820 — EQT Infrastructure II/E.ON Energy from Waste, to the following address:
