Questão jurídica principal
Whether the Federal Energy Office had standing to bring a public-law appeal against the cantonal judgment.
Decisão extraída
The office lacked standing because the challenged judgment was not based on the Energy Act and the relevant federal provisions did not grant it a right of appeal.
Fundamentação extraída
The plan could be reviewed under administrative-law appeal because it had the features of a decision under Art. 5 PA, but standing under Arts. 103 and 110 OJ was absent. The Energy Act only conferred appeal rights where cantonal authorities applied that act; here the cantonal court merely considered energy policy interests in its balancing of interests. Neither spatial-planning nor nature-protection legislation granted the office standing.
