Ah, thanks. Under the "further information" section on OPS the only mention I could find on oppositions was in the CQL section of "OPS version 3.2 documentation – version 1.3.19" (https://documents.epo.org/projects/babylon/eponet.nsf/0/F3ECDCC915C9BCD8C1258060003AA712/$File/ops_v...

For instance: appln_id=488502563 lists 1 applicant (56713290) and 1 inventor (56701905). Neither of them are in [patstat2021a].[dbo].[tl...

Thanks!

The EPO has a 'Y' classification in its IPC database. A search on this code on Espacenet reveals numerous patents have been allocated this IPC code. See for instance: https://worldwide.espacenet.com/patent/search?q=cpc%3DY02E10%2F10%2Flow Which relates to Y02E 10/00. However, if I attempt the same s...

Okay, thanks for that. That's a reasonable enough proxy
