Samenvatting:
By 2010, the European Union aims to have renewable sources of powerproviding 21% of the electricity generated in its 25 member states,
with differentiated targets for each state.This ambitious goal was set
in the EU directive 2001/77/EC, known as the ?Renewables Directive?.
The directive is also important for setting framework conditions for
market support of renewable electricity generation. Member states will
be allowed to continue their own support instruments for a transitional
period of at least seven years after the acceptance of a Commission
proposal on a harmonised community framework. Such a proposal may be
made, but is not expected, in an evaluation report of member state support
systems, due no later than 27 October 2005. The directive also states
that better access is to be provided for renewable energy generators
to electricity distribution networks, including streamlining and expediting
authorisation procedures.Where appropriate, member states may require
transmission and distribution system oprators to bear (part of) the
necessary connection and grid reinforcement costs. Furthermore, when
dispatching power, the transmission system operators should give priority
to renewable electricity plants ?to the extent possible?.
