Paragraph 23
23. Stresses that energy end consumers – individuals, SMEs and industry alike – are at the very core of the internal energy market and that they should benefit from lower energy prices, be duly protected, and accurately informed by ensuring easy access to information; notes that their exposure to risks due to rising and increasingly volatile energy prices may cause socio-economic difficulties and should be managed; for this purpose, calls on the Commission and Members States to achieve, as a matter of urgency, the completion of the internal market, security of supply and the interconnection of networks as requested in Article 194 TFEU;

Paragraph 24
Paragraph 24
24. Notes that in order to ensure security of supply there must be enough flexible capacity to meet demand in peak periods and in periods of (political, technical or techonologicalmic) difficulties and that excess capacity or, backup and storage capacity, and demand management must therefore be ensured and maintained; points out the need for storageadequate storage capacities and more grid flexibility as a response to the intermittence of some sources of RES; notes that R&D&I in the area of storage technologies and applications would be instrumental in facilitating the successful integration of intermittent RES electricity into the grid.
