Amendment 251 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 13
Paragraph 13
13. Emphasises that according a large share of the energy mix to RES entails major challenges for existing network infrastructure; notes that, in certain Member States, supply security is being severely affected by the increased feed-in from RES; is concerned by the finding by the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity (ENTSO- E) that 80% of all the bottlenecks in European energy grids relate directly or indirectly to feed-in from RES; calls on the Transmission System Operators to update their grid development policies to cope with the integration of RES generation capacities while maintaining security of supply;
Amendment 260 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 14
Paragraph 14
14. Notes that many of the best and most competitive locations for RES in the EU are at a considerable distance from the centres of energy consumption; notes that the use of such locations is contingent on the development of transmission systems; highlights that efficient local RES production shall be also promoted to reduce transmission losses and enhance security of supply;
Amendment 266 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 15
Paragraph 15
15. Notes that the development of RES on a major scale, with their remote and weather-dependent feed-in, can cause uncoordinated cross-border energy flows (loop flows) in other Member States – making load reduction increasingly necessary in the interests of supply security and reducing transfer capacities of cross- border networks available for trading purposes – if it does not go hand-in-hand with the requisite development of the grid; is concerned about the state of development of grid infrastructure in the Member States; asks Member States to accelerate the development of their internal networks necessary to cope with the increased level of RES production;
Amendment 274 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 15 a (new)
Paragraph 15 a (new)
15 a. Asks the Commission to elaborate a short-term loop-flow compensation mechanism providing affected Member States with a fair cost-sharing methodology until necessary grid developments and the flow-based market coupling are completed;
Amendment 283 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 16
Paragraph 16
16. Underscores the need for electricity storage solutions and demand-response services to facilitate the integration of RES into the energy supply; re-emphasises the urgent need for further research into electricity storage;
Amendment 424 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 27
Paragraph 27
27. Warns that pitching support at too high a level has the effect of over-compensating and thus of slowing technological progress and impeding market integration because it reduces the incentive to develop more innovative and better-value products; highlights that transparent regulatory frameworks and accelerated national permitting procedures are important pre- conditions of RES growth;
