summary: This Proposal for a Council Decision concerns the signing and provisional application of the Statute of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) by the European Community.
On 26 January 2009, the Statute of the International Renewable Energy Agency was signed at the Founding Conference in Bonn by 75 States, including 20 EU Member States. According to the Statute, the objective of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is to promote the widespread and increased adoption as well as the sustainable use of all forms of renewable energy, taking into account national and domestic priorities and benefits derived from a combined approach of renewable energy and energy efficiency measures, and the contribution of renewable energy to: (i) environmental preservation, through limiting pressure on natural resources and reducing deforestation, particularly tropical deforestation, desertification and biodiversity loss; (ii) climate protection; (iii) economic growth and social cohesion including poverty alleviation and sustainable development; (iv) access to and security of energy supply; (v) regional development; and (vi) inter-generational responsibility.
Both the European Community and its Member States have competence in the areas covered by the Statute. Certain obligations, provided for by the Statute, affect or are likely to affect the arrangements laid down by Community acts adopted regarding the environment and energy.
In view of its entry into force only on the thirtieth day after the deposit of the twenty-fifth instrument of ratification, and in view of the Statute remaining open for signature until that time, the Statute should be signed on behalf of the European Community in accordance with its Article XIX A. Considering that at the Founding Conference of IRENA in January 2009 a Preparatory Commission for IRENA was established, which is intended to ensure the rapid and effective establishment of IRENA, including by establishing an interim work programme and budget, it is considered beneficial to fully participate in IRENA activities from signature. The Statute should be applied on a provisional basis from 1 June 2009 .

summary: PURPOSE: to conclude, by the European Union, the Statute of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).
PROPOSED ACT: Council Decision.
CONTENT: the creation of an "International Renewable Energy Agency" (IRENA), with the objective of becoming a centre of excellence for renewable energy, advising governments on drawing up national programmes for the introduction of renewable energy, dissemination of information about renewables and offering training activities and advice on best practice and financing options, has been under discussion for some time. The Statute of IRENA was signed by 75 States, among which 20 Member States, in Bonn on 26 January 2009.
Article VI of the Statute provides for the possibility for regional inter-governmental economic integration organisations to become members. Twenty Member States have already signed the statue, and there is a clear need for the Community to be represented in an Agency where some obligations provided for by the Statute affect or are likely to affect the arrangements laid down by Community acts adopted in the areas of environment and energy, and thus to affect Community competences. The process of joining does not entail any negotiations as the Statute was agreed already by 75 States. Therefore joining IRENA can accordingly be made on the basis of a Council decision designating the person empowered to sign the Statute on behalf of the European Community and providing for its provisional application.
In accordance with Article VI.C of the Statute, it is necessary at the conclusion stage to declare the respective competences and responsibilities of the Community and its Member States in the performance of their obligations under the Statute.
Following signature of the Statute, this proposal provides for conclusion of the Statute by the European Community as well as for the adoption of a declaration of competences.
IMPACT ASSESSMENT: not applicable.
BUDGETARY IMPACT: the budget (Article XII of the Statute) of the Agency is to be financed by mandatory (and voluntary) contributions of its members. The mandatory contributions will be based on the scale of assessment of the United Nations, as to be determined by the IRENA Assembly. Contributions amounting to an order of U$25 million per year are expected to be needed for the day-to-day functioning of IRENA. On this basis, the Community's contributions are expected to be in the region of 2.5% of the total mandatory contributions, or EUR 480 000 per annum.

summary: The Lisbon Treaty, which entered into force on 1 December 2009, amended the EU's two core treaties, the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Treaty establishing the European Community (EC Treaty). The latter was renamed the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU).
These changes had various consequences for many ongoing procedures. First of all, the articles of the TEU and of the old EC Treaty that constitute the legal basis of all the proposals founded on those Treaties were renumbered in accordance with the table of equivalences mentioned in Article 5 of the Lisbon Treaty.
In addition, some proposals underwent a change to their legal basis going beyond a mere change to their numbering, and this resulted in changes to the type of procedure .
The Lisbon Treaty also introduced new concepts of decision-making procedure . The old "codecision procedure" was extended to new areas and renamed the "ordinary legislative procedure". A new "consent procedure" replaced the old "assent procedure". New interinstitutional procedures were also set up for the adoption of certain non-legislative acts, for example the conclusion of some international agreements.
The ongoing proposals concerned by these changes were formally modified by the Commission in a Communication published on 2 December 2009 ( COM(2009)0665 ).
In the case of the proposal for a Council Decision on the conclusion of the Statute of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) by the European Community and on the exercise of its rights and obligations, the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty had the following impacts :
the old legal basis – Treaty/EC/Art.175(1), Art. 300(2) first para and Art. 300(3) first para – became Art. 194(2), Art. 218(6)(a) of the TFEU. Please note that the numbering of the old legal basis corresponds to the consolidated version of the Treaty that was applicable immediately before the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, and may differ from the references in the original Commission proposal ; the proposal, which had previously fallen under the old consultation procedure (CNS), was classified as an interinstitutional non-legislative procedure (NLE) under which the Council requested Parliament's consent to the conclusion of the Statute.

summary: The European Parliament has been consulted again (under the interinstitutional non-legislative procedure involving a request for Parliament's consent) on a draft Council Decision on the conclusion of the Statute of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) by the European Union.
The new proposal states that as a consequence of the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon on 1 December 2009, the European Union has replaced and succeeded the European Community. It also states that the Declaration of competences is hereby adopted on behalf of the Union and the text thereof is annexed to this Decision. The Union shall pay an annual contribution to the International Renewable Energy Agency.

LEGISLATIVE ACT : Council Decision 2010/385/EU on the conclusion of the Statute of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) by the European Union
CONTENT : the Council adopted a decision on the conclusion of the Statute of the International Renewable Energy Agency by the European Union and on the exercise of its rights and obligations. In accordance with the Decision of the Council of 19 October 2009, the Statute of IRENA was signed on behalf of the EC on 23 November 2009. As a consequence of the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon on 1 December 2009, the European Union has replaced and succeeded the European Community.
Both the Union and its Member States have competences in the areas covered by the Statute, which provides that regional intergovernmental economic integration organisations that become members of IRENA declare the extent of their competence with respect to the matters governed by the Statute.
Accordingly, this Decision concludes the Statute and also adopts such a declaration of competences.
Lastly, it provides that the Union should pay an annual contribution to IRENA which is provided for in the Intelligent Energy-Europe (‘IEE’) Programme.
