Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 4
4. Notes that the energy transition towards a renewable-based system requires a well-developed electricity grid and advanced storage technologies, backup generation and demand management in order to secure a constant power supplya just, efficient and effective energy transition to a system that is productive, in the sense that it optimises the use of renewable primary energy sources for the production of electricity, requires an electricity grid that is balanced, interconnected in European terms and economically optimised, and that it be developed on the basis of advanced storage technologies with increased storage capacity, which necessitates direct public regulation of the sector by democratic public authorities in order to secure a reliable and secure power supply, at prices that are socioeconomically affordable for domestic consumers and competitive for corporative consumption;

Paragraph 7
7. Points out that most Member States require operators of storage facilities to pay network charges or energy taxes twice; is convinced that the abolishment of this burden would lead to more energy storage projects being deployed; calls on the Commission to prohibit the double taxation related to energy storage projects in its upcoming proposal for a revised Energy Taxation Directive; calls on the Member States to abolish any kind of double taxation or charges related to energy storage projects;deleted
