(6) More market integration and the change towards a more distributed and volatile electricity production requires increased efforts to coordinate national energy policies with neighbours and to use the opportunities of cross-border electricity trade.

Recital 10
(10) Short-term markets will improve liquidity and competition by enabling more resources to participate fully in the market, especially those that are more flexible. Effective scarcity pricing will encourage market participants to react to market signals and to be available when the market most needs it and ensures that they can recover their costs in the wholesale market. It is therefore critical to ensure that, as far as possible, administrative and implicit price caps are removed to allow scarcity prices to increase up to the value of lost loading. When fully embedded in the market structure, short-term markets and scarcity pricing will contribute to the removal of other market distortive measures, such as capacity mechanisms, to ensure security of supply. At the same time, scarcity pricing without price caps on the wholesale market should not jeopardize the possibility for reliable and stable prices for final customers, in particular households and SMEs.

(12) The precondition for effective competition in the internal market in electricity is non-discriminatory and, transparent and adequate charges for network use including interconnecting lines in the transmission system. The available capacity of those lines should be set at the maximum levels consistent with the safety standards of secure network operation.

(15) Efficient decarbonisation of the electricity system via market integration requiresof renewable energy and the increase of flexibility sources such as flexible generation, interconnection, demand response or storage requires large, liquid and stable bidding zones and systematically abolishing barriers to cross- border trade to overcome market fragmentation and to allow Union energy customers to fully benefit from the advantages of integrated electricity markets and competition.

(15a) According to the modelling of the European Commission, reaching the EU’s 2030 climate and energy targets in a cost-effective way would imply a reduction in the use of coal in power generation by 65 percent and a decommissioning of roughly half of the current coal fleet [EU COM 2011, Impact Assessment on EU 2050 Roadmap, “Diversified technologies scenarios”].

Recital 15 b (new)
(15b) It is crucial to put in place an enabling framework for a just transition towards a decarbonised and flexible electricity system. A long-term and consensual framework for the progressive phase-out of carbon-intensive and inflexible generation capacity at national level will allow for a just and gradual transition for employees and regions, for power plant and mining operators and for investors.

Recital 30
(30) Main principles of capacity mechanisms should be laid down in this Regulation, building on the environmental and energy State aid principles and the findings of DG Competition's Sector Inquiry on capacity mechanisms. Capacity mechanisms already in place should be reviewed in light of these principles. In case the European resource adequacy assessment reveals the absence of any adequacy concern, no new capacity mechanism should be established and no new capacity commitments under mechanisms already in place should be made. The application of the State aid control rules pursuant to Articles 107 to 109 TFUE must be complied with at all times.

Recital 30 a (new)
(30a) For the further decarbonisation of the electricity system and in line with the 2030 climate and energy framework, capacity mechanisms that operate within the electricity market should apply an emission performance standard in line with the Council conclusions of 16 December 2014 and 25th July2013 where Member States called for the phase-out of subsidies for fossil fuels.

Recital 32
Recital 32
(32) In view of differences in national energy systems and technical limitations of existing electricity networks, the best and most cost-effective approach to achieving progress in market integration will often be at a regional level. Regional cooperation of transmission system operators should thus be strengthened. In order to ensure efficient cooperation, a new regulatory framework should foresee stronger regional governance and regulatory oversight, including by strengthening the decision- making power of the Agency for cross- border issues. Closer cooperation of Member States could be needed also in crisis situations, to increase security of supply and limit market distortions.

Recital 38
Recital 38
(38) In order to raiincrease efficiencies in the electricity distribution networks in the Union and ensure close cooperation with transmission system operators and ENTSO for electricity, a European entity of distribution system operators in the Union ("EU DSO entity") should be established. The tasks of the EU DSO entity should be well-defined and its working method should ensure independence, neutrality, efficiency, transparency and representativeness amongst the Union distribution system operators. The EU DSO Entity should closely cooperate with ENTSO for Electricity on the preparation and implementation of the network codes where applicable and should work on providing guidance on the integration inter alia of distributed generation and storage in distribution networks, digitalisation of the distribution networks including deployment of smart grids and intelligent metering systems or other areas which relate to the management of distribution networks.
