Polskie Elektrownie Jądrowe sp. z o.o. welcomes an opportunity to provide a feedback on EU environmental and State aid law access to justice in relation to State aid decisions. It should be noted that State aid is crucial for the successful implementation of many capital-intensive ventures, especially important in the energy sector. Urgent challenges of energy transition, emission reduction and energy security require not only successful but also swift execution of such projects with participation of the public opinion that allows for thorough examination. From the standpoint of an investor current review mechanism balances well an important level of uncertainty inherent in the State aid procedure with the right to review legality of the State aid decisions. Having recognized the importance of the findings of the Aarhus Convention Compliance Committee and having acknowledged the Commissions statement that current status quo might require some adjustment, we would like to stress the investors perspective, which should be carefully taken into account in considering new solutions. Any potential adjustments to the current legal framework should properly include the characteristics of investment process and should avoid disproportionately: 1. increasing the length of State aid proceedings; 2. broadening the currently established scope of the review of the decisions; 3. reducing the level of legal certainty for aid beneficiaries. The approach should be proportional, taking into account that State aid decisions are not ideally suited for disputes on compliance with relevant EU environmental law, as the main objective of those decision is to ensure compatibility with the internal market, and there are dedicated legal venues for any comments and remarks related to environmental law. Therefore, any exceptional granting of access of the public to State aid proceedings should be conditioned on the well substantiated claims of non-compliance with EU environmental law inextricably linked to the objective of the State measures as well as lack of possibility to ensure compliance with environmental law in due course of the investment process.
