RE: Access to Documents minutes meetings Simson & Cabinet.
Dear DG Energy,
Referring to Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 on public access to EU documents and to the 'Aarhus Regulation', I would herewith like to ask for access to the following:
Any records, minutes or notes of the following meetings/discussions
- On 09/01/2024 between Commissioner Simson and Baker Hughes Holdings, Bellona Europa, European Lime Association, General Electric Company, AIR LIQUIDE, Open Grid Europe GmbH, Clean Air Task Force, Inc., Confederation of European Waste-to-Energy Plants, re. Meeting with CCS Europe members on CCS strategy, in Brussels;
- On 07/07/2023 between Commissioner Simson and Fluxys SA, re. Hydrogen and CCUS, in Lokeren, Belgium;

- On 22/06/2022 between Tatiana Marquez Uriarteand and ETIP Zero Emissions Platform, re. CCS & REPowerEU, in Brussels.
To the extent possible, our preference is to receive documents in electronic format. Documents that cannot be sent in electronic format should be sent to Corporate Europe Observatory, Rue d’Edimbourg 26, 1050 Brussels – to the attention of Belén Balanyá. Should you transmit documents to us by regular post, we kindly ask you to announce us in advance in this regard.
I would like to make clear I prefer you produce the documents on a rolling basis.
At no point should the Commission’s search for—or deliberations concerning—certain documents delay the production of others that the Commission has already retrieved and elected to produce.
Should my request be denied wholly or partially, please explain the denial or all deletions referring to specific exemptions in the regulation. Also I expect the partial release of documents, in case of partial exemption according to article 4.6.
I reserve the right to appeal.
Please confirm having received this application. I look forward to your reply within 15 business days, according to the regulation.
Thank you for your assistance
Belén Balanyá
