"Mr President, this report undoubtedly represents a highly significant step towards a more secure, more competitive and more sustainable energy system. I should therefore like to congratulate the rapporteur on his excellent work enabling Parliament to play a leading role in this process.
I regret, however, that the 2014 review clause has been kept. Admittedly, certain precautions have been introduced to ensure that it affects neither the 20% target nor Member States’ control over their national support systems, but to me they do not appear sufficient.
As it is currently worded, some Member States might complain that trading in renewable energy certificates has been revived, a danger that we worked so hard to avoid during the negotiations on this directive.
It is our duty as Parliament to keep watch to ensure there is no relaxation in achieving the targets and also to encourage the Union to promote the enormous potential of renewables elsewhere in the world.
We therefore welcome the initiative of setting up an international renewable energies agency to promote renewables outside Europe as well."@en1
