Amendment 184 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 5
Directive (EU) 2018/2001
Article 15c – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 1 – point b
(b) Establish appropriate rules for the designated renewable go-to areas, including on the mitigation measures to be adopted for the installation of renewable energy plants, co-located energy storage facilities, as well as assets necessary for their connection to renewable heat networks or to the grid, in order to avoid or, if not possible, to significantly reduce the negative environmental impacts that may arise. Where appropriate, Member States shall ensure that appropriate mitigation measures are applied to prevent the situations described in Articles 6(2) and 12(1) of Directive 92/43/EEC, Article 5 of Directive 2009/147/EEC and Article 4(1)(a)(i) and (ii) of Directive 2000/60/EC. Such rules shall be targeted to the specificities of each identified renewable go-to area, the renewable energy technology or technologies to be deployed in each area and the identified environmental impacts. Compliance with such rules and the implementation of the appropriate mitigation measures by the individual projects shall result in the presumption that projects are not in breach of those provisions without prejudice to paragraphs 4 and 5 of Article 16a. Where novel mitigation measures to prevent as much as possible the killing or disturbance of species protected under Council Directive 92/43/EEC and Directive 2009/147/EEC, or any other environmental impact, have not been widely tested as regards their effectiveness, Member States may allow their use for one or several pilot projects for a limited time period, provided that the effectiveness of such measures is closely monitored and appropriate steps are taken immediately if they do not prove to be effective. .

Amendment 201 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 6
Directive (Eu) 2018/2001
Article 16 paragraph 1
(1) The permit-granting process shall cover all relevant administrative permits to build, repower and operate plants for the production of energy from renewable sources, co-located energy storage facilities, as well as assets necessary for their connection to the gridrenewable heat networks, renewable district heating, heating systems and the grid and those necessary for the development of the electric transmission grid required to integrate the renewable energy plant in the system, including grid connection permits and environmental assessments where these are required. The permit- granting process shall comprise all procedures from the acknowledgment of the validity of the application in accordance with paragraph 2 to the notification of the final decision on the outcome of the procedure by the relevant authority or authorities.

Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 7
Directive (EU) 2018/2001
Article 16a – paragraph 1
(1) Member States shall ensure that the permit-granting process referred to in Article 16(1) shall not exceed one year for projects in renewables go-to areas. For generation assets and assets necessary for their connection to the grid, the process shall not exceed six month. Where duly justified on the ground of extraordinary circumstances, thatose one-year and six months periods may be extended by up to three months. In such a case, Member States shall clearly inform the developer about the extraordinary circumstances that justified the extension.

Amendment 240 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 7
Directive (EU) 2018/2001
Article 16a – paragraph 2
(2) The permit-granting process for the repowering of plants and for new installations with an electrical capacity of less than 150 kW, co-located energy storage facilities as well as their grid connection, located in renewables go-to areas shall not exceed six months. Where duly justified on the ground of extraordinary circumstances, such as on grounds of overriding safety reasons where the repowering project impacts substantially on the grid or the original capacity, size or performance of the installation, that one yearsix months period may be extended by up to three months. Member States shall clearly inform the project developer about the extraordinary circumstances that justify the extension. If the repowering project determines an increase in the capacity of the installation and the need for further network development without increasing the occupied area, the repowering project shall be authorized through the simplified procedure as referred to this Article.

Amendment 280 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 8
Directive (EU) 2018/2001
Article 16b – paragraph 2 – subparagraph 2
Member States shall facilitate the repowering of projects located outside go- to areas by ensuring that, if an environmental assessment for a project is required under the Union environmental legislation, such assessment shall be limited to the potential impacts stemming from the change or extension compared to the original project. If the repowering project determines an increase in the capacity of the installation and the need for further network development without increased the occupied area, the repowering project shall be authorized through the simplified procedure as referred to this Article.
