欧洲法院维持「伊比利亚机制」合法：驳回企业对西班牙与葡萄牙电价成本措施的上诉
里斯本消息：欧洲法院10月22日驳回相关企业上诉，维持西班牙与葡萄牙「伊比利亚机制」电价成本措施合法，认定该措施不构成歧视性的国家援助。提起挑战的企业包括 PGI Spain、Berry Superfos 与 RPC Envases 等。
「伊比利亚机制」源于2022年能源价格危机期间，西班牙与葡萄牙经欧盟批准实施的一项安排，通过干预发电用天然气价格来压低批发电力价格，减轻企业与家庭的电费负担。
此次裁决意味着该机制的法律地位得到确认。因能源成本提起诉讼的企业未能推翻先前裁定，伊比利亚两国在危机时期采取的电价干预安排获得司法背书。
EU Court Upholds 'Iberian Mechanism', Dismissing Appeals Over Spanish-Portuguese Power Price Measure
LISBON — The European Court of Justice on October 22 dismissed appeals and upheld the legality of the "Iberian mechanism" power price cost measure applied by Spain and Portugal, ruling that it does not constitute discriminatory state aid. The challengers included PGI Spain, Berry Superfos and RPC Envases.
The Iberian mechanism dates from the 2022 energy price crisis, when Spain and Portugal, with EU approval, intervened in the price of natural gas used for power generation in order to lower wholesale electricity prices and ease bills for businesses and households.
The ruling confirms the mechanism's legal standing. Companies that had sued over energy costs failed to overturn the earlier decision, giving judicial backing to the electricity price intervention adopted by the two Iberian countries during the crisis.
