Amendment 283 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3 a (new)
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Believes that a forward looking energy and climate policy must be implemented in coherence with the EU's Industrial Policy Agenda for competitiveness; Considers, in this regard, that a binding 2030 renewables target will decrease uncertainty on the mid and long-term perspectives, increasing the confidence of market actors and reducing the cost of capital necessary to unlock private investments;
Amendment 331 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 4
Paragraph 4
4. Is of the opinion that support schemes, if better usedused efficiently and in compliance with the internal market and the relevant EU state aid rules, could be an appropriate tool to incentivise the development of renewable energy sources (RES) and energy efficiency; sees an important role for the Commission in providing guidance in this regard;
Amendment 360 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 5
Paragraph 5
5. Notes that some RES should now be considered mature energy sources and their subsidies should therefore be phased out on time order to be able to reallocate these; believes however, that in order to avoid market distortion, this process should be closely linked with the phasing out of direct and indirect subsidies for fossil fuels and non-RES energy sources; such subsidies should be reallocated to research and development (R&D) programmes and RES that are not yet cost- effective; asks the Commission to study the impact of RES priority dispatch on general energy costs;
Amendment 576 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 14 a (new)
Paragraph 14 a (new)
14 a. Acknowledges that despite the on- going process of implementation of projects of common interest for energy infrastructures, cross-border interconnection capacity below the Barcelona European Council 2002 target is an obstacle to the integration of renewables, to the internal energy market, and a cause for energy system inefficiency and higher electricity prices; Considers that one of the key objectives of EU energy policy is to stimulate competitive energy costs for the economy and citizens, and therefore calls on the Commission to establish binding targets for minimum cross-border transmission capacity and a clear time-frame for its deployment;
