"Mr President, we are currently facing rapid increases in the price of energy. This has a direct impact on the quality of life of the European Union’s inhabitants and on increasing inflation. This means that we should create instruments to protect Europe’s inhabitants from the consequences of these price rises. Even though we have recently seen reductions in oil prices, I believe that we should pay greater attention to mechanisms aimed at ensuring price stability. There is also the idea that there should be greater transparency in energy markets so that, in future, they should be less susceptible to speculation on world markets. While discussing the issue of energy, one cannot but emphasise the need, first of all, to intensify the work being done on increasing the proportion of energy obtained from renewable sources, including nuclear energy, secondly, the introduction of new coal technologies and thirdly, we must introduce a wide-reaching programme to improve energy efficiency."@en1
