"Mr President, I think we can see a rationale why, in an increasingly interconnected world, it is important that we look at energy cooperation and coordination – with coordination, not coercion, being the key – particularly when some countries are concerned about over-dependence on Russia for energy supplies.
But when we are looking at energy supplies, we should be looking at diversification and barriers to new supplies. Let us look at issues such as more micro-generation; let us look at how we continue to use fossil fuels by using technologies such as carbon capture to make sure it is used in a clean way; let us look at how we can use palm oil stearin and other non-edible by-products of palm oil to ensure better energy diversification; and let us look at the issue of nuclear power.
But let us also look at bureaucracy getting in the way of supplies. This year in May, British Gas Group pulled out of building a liquefied natural gas terminal in Brindisi in South Italy after 11 years and investing EUR 250 million – because of local bureaucracy.
It is that sort of bureaucracy that does more to harm the supply of energy than anything else. Let us get rid of the bureaucracy instead of giving more power to the Commission and negotiating positions to the Commission."@en1
