The aid scheme provided for in Law No 388/2000 by which Italy plans to reduce the energy costs of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Region of Sardinia is incompatible with the common market.
The scheme may accordingly not be implemented.
Italy shall inform the Commission, within two months of notification of this Decision, of the measures taken to comply with it.
This Decision is addressed to the Italian Republic.
