Amendment 181 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 29
(29) The European Energy Programme for Recovery (EEPR) has demonstrated the added value of leveraging private funding through significant Union financial aid to allow implementation of projects of European significance. The European Council of 4 February 2011 recognised that some energy infrastructure projects may require limited public finance to leverage private funding. In the light of the economic and financial crisis and budgetary constraints, targeted support, through grants and financial instruments, should be developed under the next multi- annual financial framework, which will attract new investors into the energy infrastructure priority corridors and areas, while keeping the budgetary contribution of the Union to a minimum.
