Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 4
Paragraph 4
4. Stresses that a clear policy and regulatory framework will stimulate the necessary investments for low-carbon energy investments in an economically efficient way; Underlines the importance of an energy strategy focused on increasing the EU's energy security and economic competitiveness through measures such as the diversification of supply routes and sources, and energy efficiency;
Amendment 168 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 10
Paragraph 10
10. Emphasises the urgent need for new, smart and flexible infrastructure – including, specially smart grids and(including smart meters –) and fully integrated network planning in order, inter alia, to integrate local and more remoteall sources of renewable energy across the EU, as has been proven necessary; recalls that cost-optimal policies differ according to demand pattern, supply potential, geographic characteristics and economic context at local level; stresses, moreover, the urgent need for the establishment of a stable and predictable regulatory frameworks as well as mechanisms to allow for EU financing of infrastructure projects of common interest;
Amendment 297 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 15
Paragraph 15
15. Is concerned by the delays affecting the completion of the Southern Corridor; stresses the need to achieve energy security through energy diversification and emphasises the potential of a complementary LNG corridor in the East Mediterranean to serve as a flexible source of energy and an incentive for increased competition within the EU internal energy market;
Amendment 398 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 24
Paragraph 24
24. While recognising that the EU operates in a global context, recalls the November 2011 TTE Council Conclusions on strengthening the external dimension of the EU energy policy, the need for a broader and more coordinated EU approach to international energy relations in order to meet global energy challenges and climate change, address competitiveness and carbon leakage related issues and maintain and promote the highest nuclear safety standards, while at the same time ensuring the safe, secure and diversified supply of energy; recalls that Climate change is a global challenge, and consequently further international commitments from other countries, mainly coming from the major carbon emitters should be consistent with long term EU climate policies to avoid carbon leakage and adverse effects on European competitiveness;
Amendment 479 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 32
Paragraph 32
32. Believes that, while energy bills in Europe have risen in recent years, this development has given rise to the rise in recent years of energy bills in Europe has developed a ‘smart’, common sense-based approach to energy efficiency and energy savings; believes, regardless,stresses that the role of ICT technologies is increasingly important for energy; highlights, in this context, the roleand its implementation throughout SmartGrid networks is increasingly important for the development of efficient energy consumption and, in particular, the development of smart meters inwhich providinges consumers with data on energy consumption, in households and businesses;
Amendment 488 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 32 a (new)
Paragraph 32 a (new)
32a. Believes that the roll out of Smart Grids is a matter of urgency. Without them, the integration of distributed renewable generation and the improvement of energy consumption efficiency, which are basic for the achievement of the European objectives 20/20/20, will not be possible;
