Wind Power Production Incentive

In 2005, the breakdown of renewable energy sources for electricity production in the EU was as follows: 66.1% from hydropower, 16.3% from wind power, 15.8% from biomass, 1.2% from geothermal energy and 0.3% from solar power (thermal and photovoltaic).

Realises that tax cuts are a powerful incentive for making the shift from fossil energy to renewable energy, and urges the Commission to reform the Energy Taxation Directive and the state-aid rules, which are preventing these incentives from being used to their full potential.

Notes that non-variable forms of renewables production, such as hydroelectric power, which can be rapidly mobilised and are environmentally responsible, offer a way of supporting the integration of variable renewables into the market.

Key follow up actions: Scale up efforts for achieving the EU-Africa 2020 energy targets of reliable and secure supply of energy and increased access to sustainable energy services, as agreed by the EU and African ministers in Vienna in September 2010 Mobilise regional level action in developing countries, particularly in Africa, to reform legal and regulatory frameworks with a view to creating market based conditions that attract private sector investments and enhance regional power trade Mobilise more resources from EU development assistance to catalyse investment projects both at the small scale for increasing access to energy services ...[+++] in rural areas and at a larger scale for improving energy competitiveness and security through interconnections and major generation projects Mainstream energy in all EU development policy instruments, and tailor support schemes and financing instruments to the specific needs of the sector, by privileging capacity development and technology transfer, including through research and innovation, stimulating decentralised renewable power production, promoting private initiatives and maximising the local value added Facilitate access of least developed countries to climate financing, notably by contributing in the framework of UNFCCC negotiations to the definition of a new Clean Development Mechanism more adapted to energy access and sustainable development needs |
