Austria filed a legal challenge against the decision by the European Commission to allow U.K. state subsidies for Electricite de France SA’s Hinkley Point atomic power plant.

Austria submitted a suit to the European Union’s General Court, the office of the country’s Chancellor Werner Faymann said in a statement on Monday.
