Timely decisions about the cornerstones of EU’s energy and climate policies beyond 2020 will substantially support confidence for the important investments. We would like to contribute towards a modern, resource-efficient and low carbon growth as a central driver for Europe’s economic recovery and competitiveness agenda, energy security aims, and delivering sustainable growth and job creation for decades to come.

IETA comment on Commissioner Arias Canete’s appointment, September 10, 2014 |
|
Wednesday, September 10, 2014 09:35 AM |
|
Today, European Commission president-designate Jean-Claude Juncker nominated Spain’s Miguel Arias Canete as the next climate and energy commissioner.
Dirk Forrister, president and CEO of the International Emissions Trading Association, said:
“It’s a welcome step that the new Commission seems set to focus more on an integrated and coherent approach, with different Commissioners working together to shape EU-wide policies rather than DGs working separately from one another. It will be essential for the EU’s 2030 climate & energy framework to address both climate and energy issues simultaneously. The two have to go hand in hand for a successful climate outcome.
