The Uniper representative office to the EU institutions in Brussels is the main point of contact for EU affairs. The office employees deal directly with EU issues. The rest of the employees, engaged in activities falling under the scope of the transparency register are located in the company headquarter or subsidiaries. Their tasks encompass a wider range of activities. Consequently, only a fraction of their working time is dedicated to EU-affairs.
