Re: My take - Network Policy (4.00 / 2)
  1. Research and demonstration projects should be targeted specifically towards the operation of a European electricity grid with a high share of renewable energy. This implies directing funds primarily towards storage, local generation and changes to the electricity grid.

  2. The most important activity for the EU is rapid expansion of the TEN-E network through co-funding. Priority should be given to electricity networks. Funding for TEN should be enlarged through an increase in the general budget of the EU, shifting funds within the EU budget away from agriculture and fisheries, and utilising money left over in the budget.

  3. Facilitation of infrastructure investment in third countries should be restricted to cases that bring a direct benefit to the EU energy network. Priority should be given to electricity networks that transport renewable energy, as in the DESERTEC concept, over gas and oil infrastructure.
