1. Recalls that having secure, sustainable and competitive energy and adequate, integrated and reliable energy networks with effective internal connections represents one of the main future challenges for all EU regions; underlines that the upgrading and renewal of energy infrastructure, the promotion of trans-European energy networks and renewable energy sources, the development of domestic electricity and gas connections and the integration of isolated parts of the EU into the European energy market are essential factors for achieving the 20-20-20 targets as well as the objectives of the Europe 2020 Strategy; notes that in a number of countries the level of interconnection is below the threshold of 10%; stresses that EU energy policy m ...[+++]ust be coordinated and defined at continental level, and that European networks connected to neighbouring countries would stimulate competition on the common European energy market and increase solidarity among Member States; believes that the Union, Member States and regional authorities must cooperate in this context to improve not only cross-border infrastructure but also infrastructure that allows the transmission to and from transmission highways and the distribution on national level; underlines that regional and local authorities in cooperation with national ‘one-stop shops’ play an important role in sustainable planning, in the authorisation processes as well as in promoting energy infrastructure projects (EIPs) to the general population;

In order for several sources with a high technical and economical potential to make a significant contribution to meeting the EU-targets on renewable energy there is a need for enhanced co-operation and planning between European network operators, the competent authorities and, where appropriate, the European Commission notably on electricity grid integration issues, for joint RD efforts focussing on further cost reductions of supporting technologies and for an improved exchange of information on the environmental implications of these technologies.

Additionally, electric power systems have multiple challenges, from long-term generation planning in a weakened economy to a looming crisis in the supply of electric power engineering professionals.

With good planning and preparation, electric systems should be able to provide continuous electricity service.

Leading role of coal In order to meet the challenges they have set themselves the Chinese authorities indicated to Mr Mosar that the future energy policy of the People's Republic will have to include the following points : - increased and coal production and consumption, allowing exports of coal, oil and natural gas, - an increase in electricity production, including nuclear energy (the first nuclear power station, near Shangai, is planned for 1989 and two others, in Canton and Shangai again for the turn of the century), - interconnection of six large regional electricity grids, - progressively bringing energy prices into line with actual costs, - more efficient use of en ...[+++]ergy by means of analytical assessments and energy forecasts based on up-to-date information planning, - training of officials needed to achieve these objectives.
