Energy Commissioner Andris Piebalgs has welcomed the Council decision to adopt the Commission’s proposal for a revision of the Trans-European Energy Network (TEN-E) Guidelines. The European Parliament already endorsed these Guidelines on 4 April 2006. “The guidelines identify a European-wide electricity and gas transmission network, which is indispensable for the correct functioning of the internal energy market and to improve security of supply. The new rules will make authorisation procedures easier and attract the necessary investment for cross-border projects of high European interest”, said Commissioner Piebalgs.
