Kommissionen konkluderede derfor, at ENEL ved fastsættelsen af taksten handlede som en rationel aktør, der opererer på markedsøkonomiske vilkår, og at foranstaltningen ikke indebar statsstøtte som omhandlet i EF-traktatens artikel 87, stk. 1.
The Commission thus concluded that ENEL was behaving like a rational market operator in granting the tariff and the measure was according declared not to constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 87(1) of the EC Treaty.
