2011/2095(INI)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18 g (new)
Paragraph 18 g (new)
18g. Believes that agriculture is well placed to make a major contribution to tackling climate change, creating new jobs through green growth and supplying renewable energy; notes that greenhouse gas emission reductions in the agricultural sector is a win-win-win situation by increasing farmers’ long term economic and agronomic viability;

2011/2095(INI)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18 h (new)
Paragraph 18 h (new)
18h. Notes that emission mitigation efforts are expected to increase demand for bio-energy; stresses the potential of the agriculture sector to contribute to the Europe-2020 strategy by increasing the production of sustainable energy, such as biogas, thereby creating new jobs in rural areas; calls therefore, for greater recognition of the contribution made by agriculture and forestry through the sustainable production of renewable energy, which is currently credited to the energy, transport and heating sectors when taking stock;
Amendment 285 #
2011/2095(INI)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18 i (new)
Paragraph 18 i (new)
18i. Recalls that as the world's arable land decreases, while the population increases, the action on climate change and the need to ensure global food security are dual challenges which need to be pursued together; stresses that the need, on the one hand, to expand production and the need, on the other hand, to increase the sequestration of carbon in soil and biomass must not lead to a conflict of goals;

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18 k (new)
Paragraph 18 k (new)
18k. Deplores the fact that too much agricultural waste is currently not used to its full potential; considers that agricultural waste should be seen as an asset; calls on the Commission and Member States to put forward national strategies on the need for better management of bio-waste and of agriculture and forestry by-products; notes in this respect the use of animal waste and plant based by-products and processing waste e.g. in biofermenters to produce on-farm energy, while at the same time also reducing farmers' production costs;
Amendment 75 #
2011/2056(INI)
Draft opinion
Paragraph 8 a (new)
Paragraph 8 a (new)
8 a. Notes that, whilst cyanide mining technology, which poses a serious environmental threat, enables just 2 grams of gold to be produced from one tonne of ore, 150 times as much – nearly 300 grams – can be made from one tonne of used mobile phones without the need for cyanide; therefore reminds the Commission of Parliament’s resolution of 5 May 2010 calling for a complete EU ban on cyanide mining technology by the end of 2011;

Proposal for a directive
Recital 28
Recital 28
(28) Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 on industrial emissions29 includes energy efficiency among the criteria for determining the Best Available Techniques that should serve as a reference for setting the permit conditions for installations within its scope, including combustion installations with a total rated thermal input of 50 MW or more. However, that Directive gives Member States the option not to impose requirements relating to energy efficiency on combustion units or other units emitting carbon dioxide on the site, for the activities listed in Annex I to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community30 . To ensure that significant energy efficiency improvements are achieved in electricity and heat generation installations and mineral oil and gas refineries, actual energy efficiency levels should be monitored and compared with the relevant energy efficiency levels associated with the application of the Best Available Techniques. The Commission should compare energy efficiency levels and consider proposing additional measures if significant discrepancies exist between the actual energy efficiency levels and the levels associated with the application of the Best Available Techniques. The information collected on the actual energy efficiency values should also be used in reviewing the harmonised efficiency reference values for separate production of heat and electricity set out in Commission Decision 2007/74/EC of 21 December 200631 .
Amendment 297 #

Article 11 – paragraph 1
Member States shall draw up an inventory of data in accordance with Annex X for all installations undertaking the combustion of fuels with total rated thermal input of 50 MW or more and installations undertaking the refining of mineral oil and gas within their territory. This shall be updated every three years. The annual installation-specific data contained in these inventories shall be made available to the Commission upon request. Member States shall include a non-confidential summary containing aggregated information of the inventories in the reports referred to in Article 19(2).
Amendment 340 #
2011/0172(COD)
Proposal for a directive
Article 19 – paragraph 5 – subparagraph 1
Article 19 – paragraph 5 – subparagraph 1
The Commission’s assessment of the first supplementary report shall include an assessment of the energy efficiency levels of existing and new installations undertaking the combustion of fuels with a total rated thermal input of 50 MW or more and installations undertaking the refining of mineral oil and gas, in the light of the relevant best available techniques as developed in accordance with Directive 2010/75/EU and Directive 2008/1/EC. Where this assessment identifies significant discrepancies between the actual energy efficiency levels of such installations and energy efficiency levels associated with the application of the relevant best available techniques, the Commission shall propose, if appropriate, requirements to improve the energy efficiency levels achieved by such installations or that the use of such techniques shall in future be a condition for the permitting of new installations and for the periodic review of the permits for existing installations.
