Recital 4
(4) Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council23 , the current TEN-E Regulation, lays down rules for the timely development and interoperability of trans-European energy networks in order to achieve the energy policy objectives of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union to ensure the functioning of the internal energy market, security of supply and competitive energy markets in the Union, to promote energy efficiency and energy saving including in the transportation sector and the development of new and renewable forms of energy, and to promote the interconnection of energy networks. Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 puts in place a framework for Member States and relevant stakeholders to work together in a regional setting to develop better- connected energy networks with the aim to connect regions currently isolated from European energy markets, strengthen existing cross-border interconnections, and help integrate renewable energy. By pursuing those objectives, Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 contributes to smart, sustainable and inclusive growth and brings benefits to the entire Union in terms of competitiveness and economic, social and territorial cohesion. _________________ 23Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2013 on guidelines for trans- European energy infrastructure and repealing Decision No 1364/2006/EC and amending Regulations (EC) No 713/2009, (EC) No 714/2009 and (EC) No 715/2009, OJ L 115, 25.4.2013, p. 39–75

(5) The evaluation of Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 has clearly shown that the framework has effectively improved the integration of Member States’ networks, stimulated energy trade and hence contributed to the competitiveness of the Union. Projects of common interest in electricity and gas have strongly contributed to security of supply. For gas, the infrastructure is now well connected and supply resilience has improved substantially since 2013 as corroborated by independent third-party analyses1a. Regional cooperation in Regional Groups and through cross-border cost allocation is an important enabler for project implementation. However, in many cases the cross-border cost allocation did not result in reducing the financing gap of the project, as intended. While the majority of permitting procedures have been shortened, in some cases the process is still long. The financial assistance from the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) has been an important factor as grants for studies have helped projects to reduce risks in the early stages of development, while grants for works have supported projects addressing key bottlenecks that market finance could not sufficiently address. _________________ 1aArtelys 2020: An updated analysis on gas supply security in the EU energy transition.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 6
(6) The TEN-E policy is a central instrument in the development of an internal energy market and necessary to achieve the European Green Deal objectives. To achieve climate neutrality by 2050 at the latest and higher levels of greenhouse gas emission reductions by 2030 in line with the Paris Agreement, Europe will need a more integrated energy system, relying which delivers energy efficiency and relies on higher levels of electrification based on renewable sources and the decarbonisation of the gas sector. The TEN-E policy can deliver the network innovation and transformation needed to ensure that the Union energy infrastructure development supports the required energy transition to climate neutrality of all sectors including transportation in line with the energy efficiency first principle.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 7
(7) While the objectives of Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 remain largely valid, the current TEN-E framework does not yet fully reflect the expected changes to the energy system that will result from the new political context and in particular the upgraded 2030 targets and the 2050 climate neutrality objective under the European Green Deal as well as the "do- no-harm"-principle. Besides the new political context and objectives, technological development has been rapid in the past decade. That development should be taken into account in the infrastructure categories covered by this Regulation, the projects of common interest selection criteria as well as the priority corridors and thematic areas.

(10) The Union’s energy infrastructure should contribute towards climate change mitigation yet also be resilient to the unavoidable impacts that climate change is estimated to create in Europe in spite of the mitigation efforts. Hence, strengthening the efforts on climate adaptation, resilience building, disaster prevention and preparedness is crucial.

Amendment 71 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 11
(11) Security of supply, as one main driver behind Regulation (EU) No 347/2013, has been significantly improved through projects of common interest. Moreover, the Commission’s climate target impact assessment27 expects the consumption of natural gas to be reduced significantly because its non-abated use is not compatible with carbon-neutrality and because other technologies are increasingly available for sectors that have previously considered natural gas as their main option for decarbonisation such as the transport sector. Existing EU gas infrastructure is sufficiently capable of meeting future gas demand scenarios in the EU and as such LNG can act as a transitional energy source for sectors that currently do not have large-scale mature alternatives such as the maritime and aviation sector without infrastructure expansion. On the other hand, the consumption of biogas, renewable and low-decarbonised hydrogen and synthetic gaseous fuels will increase significantly towards 2050. Therefore, the natural gas infrastructure no longer needs support through the TEN-E policy. The planning of energy infrastructure should reflect this changing gas landscape. _________________ 27 SWD(2020) 176 final

(11 a) While LNG has a role to play in the short term transition away from more polluting fuels in the maritime and inland waterway transport sector, delivering a sustainable, scalable and cost-effective green transition for maritime transport in the medium and long term depends on the mass deployment of ammonia and green hydrogen, which can deliver zero carbon propulsion.

Amendment 77 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 12
(12) The importance of smart electricity grids in achieving the Union’s energy and climate policy objectives has been acknowledged in the communication from the Commission on energy system integration28 . The criteria for the category should include technological developments regarding innovation and digital aspects. Furthermore, the role of projects promoters should be clarified. Given the expected significant increase in power demand from the transport sector, in particular for electric vehiclesmobility along highways and in urban areas, smart grid technologies should also help to improve energy network related support for cross border high capacity recharging to support the decarbonisation of the transport sector based on the energy efficiency first principle. In this respect, electricity highways corridors must also be prioritised as part of power system modernisation to avoid grid congestion. _________________ 28 COM(2020) 299 final

Amendment 82 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13
(13) The Commission’s communication on energy system integration underlines the need for integrated energy infrastructure planning across energy carriers, infrastructures, and consumption sectors. Such system integration starts from the point of departure of applying the energy efficiency first principle and taking a holistic approach beyond individual sectors. It also addresses the decarbonisation needs of the hard to abate sectors, such as parts of industry or certain modes of transport, where direct electrification is, currently, technically or economically challenging. Such investments include sustainable hydrogen and electrolysers, which are progressing towards commercial large-scale deployment. The Commission’s Hydrogen Strategy gives priority to hydrogen production from renewable electricity, which is the cleanest solution and is most compatible with the EU climate neutrality objective. To this end, offshore energy hubs will play a significant role in utilising the energy generated by the expansion of offshore energy sources to produce the necessary clean fuels needed to transform the shipping and aviation sectors such as hydrogen, synthetic fuels, methanol and ammonia. In a transitional phase however, other forms of low-decarbonised hydrogen are needed to more rapidly replace existing hydrogen and kick- start an economy of scale without creating lock-in effects by investing in fossil infrastructure.

Recital 14
(14) Moreover, the Commission’s Hydrogen Strategy29 concluded that for the required deployment of hydrogen a large- scale infrastructure network is an important element that only the Union and the single market can offer. There is currently very limited dedicated infrastructure in place to transport and trade hydrogen across borders. Such should consist of a significant extent of assets converted from natural gas, complemented by new assets dedicated to hydrogen. Furthermore, the Hydrogen Strategy sets a strategic goal to increase installed electrolyser capacity to 40 GW by 2030 in order to scale up the production of renewable hydrogen and facilitate the decarbonisation of fossil-fuel dependent sectors, such as industry or long-haul and heavy duty transport. Therefore, the TEN-E policy should include new and repurposed hydrogen transmission infrastructure and storage as well as electrolyser facilities. Hydrogen transmission and storage infrastructure should also be included in the Union-wide ten-year network development plan so as to allow a comprehensive and consistent assessment of their costs and benefits for the energy system, including their contribution to sector integration and decarbonisation, with the aim of creating a hydrogen backbone for the Union. _________________ 29A hydrogen strategy for a climate- neutral Europe, COM(2020) 301 final.

(15) Moreover, a new infrastructure category should be created for smart gas grids to support investments which integrate renewable and low carbon gases such as sustainable second generation biogas, biomethane, and decarbonised hydrogen, in the network and help manage a resulting more complex system, building on innovative digital technologies.

Amendment 94 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 16
(16) Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 requires a candidate project of common interest to prove a significant contribution to at least one criterion from a set of criteria in the process for the elaboration of the Union list, which may, but does not need to, include sustainability. That requirement, in line with the specific needs of the internal energy market at the time, enabled development of projects of common interest which addressed only security of supply risks even if they did not demonstrate benefits in terms of sustainability. However, given the evolution of the Union infrastructure needs and the decarbonisation goals, the Conclusions of the 2020 July European Council, according to which “Union expenditure should be consistent with Paris Agreement objectives and the "do no harm" principle of the European Green Deal, sustainability in terms of the integration of renewable energy sources into the grid or the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, as relevant, should be assessed in order to ensure that TEN-E policy is coherent with energy and climate policy objectives of the Union and contributes towards making the Union climate neutral by 2050 at the latest. The sustainability of CO2 transport networks is addressed by their purpose to capture, utilise, store and transport carbon dioxide.

Amendment 98 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 18
(18) Furthermore, to achieve the Union’s 2030 and 2050 climate and energy targets and climate neutrality objective, Europe needs to significantly scale up renewable electricity generation. The existing infrastructure categories for electricity transmission and storage are crucial for the integration of the significant increase in renewable electricity generation in the power grid. In addition, that requires stepping up investment in offshore renewable energy30 and offshore energy hubs, which will enable a scale-up of power-to-x infrastructure required to transform sectors such as aviation and maritime transport and phase out the use of heavily pollutant fuels. Coordinating long- term planning and development of offshore and onshore electricity grids should also be addressed. In particular, offshore infrastructure planning should move away from the project-by-project approach towards a coordinated comprehensive approach ensuring the sustainable development of integrated offshore grids in line with the offshore renewable potential of each sea basin, environmental protection and other uses of the sea. _________________ 30 Offshore Strategy Communication

Recital 29
(29) The planning and implementation of Union projects of common interest in the areas of energy, transport and telecommunication infrastructure should be coordinated to generate synergies whenever it is feasible from an overall economic, technical, environmental, climate or spatial planning point of view and with due regard to the relevant safety aspects. Thus, during the planning of the the various European networks, it should be possible to give preference to integrating transport, communication and energy networks in order to ensure that as little land as possible is taken up, whilst ensuring, where possible, that existing or disused routes are reused, in order to reduce to a minimum any negative social, economic, environmental, climate and financial impact. In particular, projects of common interest should be assessed in terms of their synergies with the Trans European Transport Network to maximise impact.
