"Madam President, in relation to the climate policy of the European Union, and only because of this, energy-intensive industry is under huge competitive pressure from countries outside of Europe, where discipline regarding CO
emissions just does not exist.
In the case of the chemical, paper, cement and steel industries, this means reducing investment in Europe, it means reducing innovations in these areas, and it also means moving jobs outside of Europe. In many European Union Member States, these industries pay disproportionate amounts for electricity just because the energy sector is dominated by high-emission technology, as is the case in Poland. This interferes with competition in the EU market.
If we do not wish to lose competitiveness, we must provide energy-intensive industries with tax relief and public aid and we must suspend transmission fees, so that it will not be too difficult for these industries to make the transition to a low-emission economy."@en1
