"Europe’s energy and climate strategy must combine economic competitiveness with security of energy supply and environmental concerns. The purpose of going beyond the 20% target for reducing greenhouse gas emissions must be to reconcile these climate-related actions with competitiveness, economic growth and employment. I agree with stepping up reduction efforts from 20% to 25%, if the extra 5% corresponds to an increase in energy efficiency. It is essential to find solutions that maintain the competitiveness of European industry. In that respect, I welcome the fact that for the first time there is a broad consensus between the political groups on the inclusion of a sectoral approach. This approach will make the greenhouse gas emissions reduction target set for a particular country compatible with the holistic, comprehensive treatment of each high-energy intensity industrial sector, thus avoiding the serious risk of carbon leakage."@en1
