The consequences of increasing returns to scale, and I should say there are probably some people here who are not economists or who do not know economics, but the implications of increasing returns to scale mean that as a company expands and produces more output, it does so at a lower unit cost.

60. Stresses that a properly designed future model of the electricity market in the EU is urgently needed and must aim at promoting the necessary investment to guarantee supply in the long term and at a more market-based and – from the point of view of network security – optimised integration of renewable energy sources, while fully taking into account the changing nature of energy supply and demand, including the increased uptake of micro-generation, demand-response technology and the increasing share of renewable energy; notes, in this regard, the need for common standards for smart grids as a key element for ensuring a stable supply ...[+++]and free flow of energy across borders, thus contributing to energy security; furthermore highlights the role that developing smarter energy grids and new energy storage facilities can play in increasing the level of renewable energy sources (RES) on a European scale and ensuring that such infrastructure is developed in conjunction with regional RES hubs;

(1f) The European Parliament's Resolution on the "Roadmap to a Single European Transport Area – Towards a competitive and resource efficient transport system" (2011/2096(INI)) calls for an Union-wide uniform 30% reduction in emissions of CO2 and pollutants in shipping, to which the IMO agreements on the Energy Efficiency Design Index and the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan are to make a contribution.

Taking into account internationally agreed standards, where available, and based on scientific evidence and on the yields notified by Member States, the Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 22 to adopt and adapt maximum yields for other emissions of cigarettes and for emissions of tobacco products other than cigarettes that increase in an appreciable manner the toxic or addictive effect of tobacco products beyond the threshold of toxicity and addictiveness stemming from the yields of tar, nicotine and carbon monoxide fixed in paragraph 1.

34. Urges Member States to include in their NEEAPs to increase high-efficiency cogeneration, to move to the holistic planning and fostering of electricity, heating and cooling supply, and more generally to promote measures to encourage the use of, and remove administrative barriers to, small-scale and micro cogeneration; urges the Commission to look unfavourably on NEEAPs which fail to do this;
