Mission & Goals
enernovum wants to use its know-how to help achieve climate targets and thus enable the energy transition. For several years now, the Austrian company Clean Capital Energy has been involved as a key partner in the further development: For example, both PV experts founded the joint venture CCEN in Italy back in 2017 and the joint CCE Holding in 2021 with the aim of being a fully integrated Independent Power Producer (IPP) - i.e. an independent operator of solar power plants. This means that the group can now cover all levels of the value chain, from project development to the construction of PV plants and their financing to the sale of energy.
EU Legislative Interests
Green transition and its financial implications including issues relating to the Energy Charter Treaty, specifically: - Potential Energy Charter Treaty modernization and related issues. enernovum as a company founded with the sole purpose of supporting the green transition more than a decade ago is keen to contribute to a future-proof protection of most urgently needed and very high investments into such sources of energy (as opposed to fossil fuels). enernovum would also like to see the conundrum solved which was created by the ECJ's decisions from ACHMEA on (C-284-16) via KOMSTROY (C-741/19 - see Ulrich KARPENSTEIN, NJW 2021, 3243) up to the ANTIN case (ICSID Case No. ARB 13/31, Award 15 June 2018), with accompanying Commission decisions on qualifying compensation even if awarded by tribunals as unauthorized state support. enernovum sees merit in looking at the analogous situation and solution found in South America for adequately dealing with tribunal awards without seeing uniform application of the supra-national Union's law endangered. This would allow to reconcile said ECJ judgments with the important political paradigm shift by the Green Deal which needs to be made enforceable – this seems possible without even amending the ECT as such (see in particular the end of part ii. in sections IV and V: https://efilablog.org/2022/11/16/why-komstroy-cannot-be-the-last-word-part-i/ https://efilablog.org/2022/11/16/why-komstroy-cannot-be-the-last-word-part-ii/ ).
