I decided to vote in favour of the report on energy infrastructure priorities for 2020 and beyond, which represents progress towards the drafting of an agreement on the creation of an integrated European energy network. It is important for the Heads of State or Government to ratify a common energy policy (the ‘one voice’ strategy), which should become part of the common foreign policy.
On the other hand, this report sets out very interesting and promising objectives, such as the sustainability and the promotion of renewable energy sources, competitiveness and the opening up of markets, security of supply and the diversification of energy sources, as well as the famous ‘three twenties’: reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 20%, increasing energy efficiency by 20% and increasing the use of renewable energies by 20%. These are sensible proposals, and consequently deserve our support.
Something else we cannot forget is infrastructure, which in the Commission’s opinion is ‘outdated’ and needs to be reformed. These reforms are of vital importance for achieving one of the EU’s most important goals in this regard, namely the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. Increasing the generation of electricity from wind turbines will create favourable conditions for continuing reforms of energy infrastructure."@en1
