Amendment 32 #
Motion for a resolution
Recital C
Recital C
C. whereas the integration of the electricity markets and multilateral cooperation must also respect the right of the Member States to determine the national energy mix, the conditions for using their energy resources, the composition of their energy mix and the overall structure of their energy supply;
Amendment 179 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 4
Paragraph 4
4. Takes the view that it makes sense to step up cooperation between regions under the leadership of ACER, particularly as regards evaluating cross-border impacts, though without the Member States abandoning responsibility for security of supply; advocates more far-reaching transparency provisions concerning ACER activities;
Amendment 240 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 9
Paragraph 9
9. Supports the closer linkage of differing priorities in the national energy mix, such as wind energy with nuclear or with water reservoirs;
Amendment 273 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 11
Paragraph 11
11. Notes that rapid network expansion and the removal of structural network bottlenecks are also essential if uniform price zimportant conditiones are to be retained, and that the splitting of bidding zones could be a sensible market economy approach to reflect actual electricity shortages in certain regions; takes the view that in closely integrated electricity networks the allocation of price zones should be decided together with all neighbours concernedfor realising the internal market in energy; takes the view that a configuration of price zones should be decided solely within the framework of the 'Bidding Zone Review' as part of ENTSO-E with the participation of all the relevant stakeholders in order to prevent both the inefficient use of networks and the reduction of cross-border capacities, which is incompatible with the internal market; views a common European price zone as the objective;
Amendment 316 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 13
Paragraph 13
13. Calls for national capacity mechanisms only to be authorised where a detailed analysis of the production and supply situation at regional level has been carried out in advance and a bottleneck has been identified which cannot be eliminated by less stringent measures such as a strategic reserve; states that, should the establishment of capacity markets/mechanisms be sought, there must be coordination across all EU regions, together with Europe-wide public tendering, so that there is no cross-border cross-subsidisation or discrimination against industry or other customers and no individual/national capacity mechanisms are established;
Amendment 401 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18
Paragraph 18
18. Notes that the expectation of future price surges can create incentives for producers and investors to invest in production capacity, particularly in high- efficiency modern gas-fired power stations and climate-neutral pumped-storage power stations, urges politicians not to intervene in the market even in the event of large price surges and calls, in the medium term, for the complete abolition of regulated final consumer prices;
Amendment 519 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 26
Paragraph 26
26. Takes the view that, for a medium-term transitional period, national responsibility for the energy mix cannot be questioned and therefore that both nuclear power, which is largely CO2-neutralthe use of sustainable, largely CO2-neutral, technologies and national energy reserves such as hydroelectric power and pumped storage in particular, and the use of national energy reserves together with high-efficiency gas-fired power stations and coal-fired electricity generation using the latest technology, can make vital contributions to the integration of renewables;
Amendment 537 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 28
Paragraph 28
28. Stresses that renewables should in most cases be fed in at distribution systems level, and therefore calls for distribution system operators to have a greater role overall and to be more closely involved in the European regulatory bodies; advocates improved cooperation between distribution system operators and transmission system operators.
