Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 2
Paragraph 2
2. Calls on the Commission to actively pursue the diversification of supply (energy sources, suppliers and routes); to this end, calls on the Commission to promote the construction of the relevant energy infrastructure priority corridors, as specified in Annex I to the trans-European energy networks (TEN-E) regulation and Part II of the Annex I to the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) regulation, such as the Southern Gas Corridor; calls on the Commission to prioritise the utilisation of indigenous production capacity and energy resources;
Amendment 426 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 14 a (new)
Paragraph 14 a (new)
14a. Points out that the security of energy supply in the EU, particularly for electricity-intensive industries, depends too on the uninterrupted provision of current; notes that a basic electricity output is needed in order to sustain the highest possible levels of quality and reliability in the EU electricity grid while integrating intermittent supplies from renewable sources; notes that hydroelectricity, bioenergy and nuclear energy are among the available low- emission technologies, and calls on the Commission to take appropriate steps to encourage investment in these forms of energy production;
Amendment 616 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 24
Paragraph 24
24. Stresses that a properly designed future model of the electricity market in the EU must aim at a more market-based and optimal, from the point of view of network security, integration of renewable energy sources, and must encourage incentives for long-term investments in low-carbon technologies;
Amendment 965 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 39
Paragraph 39
39. Recognises that indigenous energy sources such as nuclear, clean coal technologies and fossil fuels with carbon capture and storage (CCS) would make a fundamental contribution to EU energy security and decarbonisation, with, shale gas and other gases, for example coal seam gas, facilitating the transition to a low- emission economy; believes, in this respect, that the Energy Union must reflect the need for the EU to use all low and lower emission sources at Member States’ disposal;
Amendment 976 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 36 b (new)
Paragraph 36 b (new)
36b. Notes that nuclear energy accounts for more than a quarter of the EU’s domestic electricity production and for more than half of carbon-free electricity production; points out that the Euratom Treaty provides the EU with a framework for responsible use of nuclear energy, not least as regards nuclear safety and radioactive waste management;
Amendment 1134 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 49
Paragraph 49
49. Calls on the Commission to provide an explicit mapping of the different funding and financing instruments, such as the InvestEU programme, Connecting Europe (PCIs), R&D funds, structural funds, smart grid financing instruments (ERA-Net Plus), the Horizon 2020 programme (H2020), the European Investment Bank (EIB), the European Energy Programme for Recovery (EEPR), the Connecting Europe Facility -– Energy (CEF-E), NER 300, the Research Fund for Coal and Steel (RFCS), and Eurogia+, and to clarify the eligibility rules for each of these programmes, while taking into account the technology neutral approach; calls on the Commission to aim to provide more balanced support and spending throughout the EU to avoid creating a technological rift between regions;
