Proposal for a directive
Recital 12a (new)

(12a) The development of renewable forms of energy is one of the European Union’s key objectives, and the contribution made by renewable energy sources to environmental and climate objectives is crucial. Directive 2009/28/EC of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources1 recalls that there should be coherence between those objectives and the remainder of the Union’s environmental legislation. Consequently, this Directive should not prevent the development of renewable energy technologies that present no danger to the environment and that are sustainable and economically viable, such as photovoltaic solar panels, which should be exempted from the scope of this Directive. Independent impact assessment studies requested by the Commission also recommend the exemption of photovoltaic solar panels from the scope of this Directive. 1 OJ L 140, 05.06.2009, p. 16.
