Prioritising 'non-infrastructure related solution' already in the stage for identification of infrastructure gaps appears to be contradictory to the nature, to energy efficiency first principle and the technology neutrality approach. Moreover Infrastructure Gaps should not identify 'solutions' but only the needs of the system.

Moreover, it is crucial to keep consistency regarding the elaboration of development plans for onshore and offshore grids. An assessment of the TYNDP is conducted every two years, while network development plans for each sea basin are required to be updated every three years by ENTSO-E. This lack of uniformity could affect the consistency of the network planning at EU level.

Justification

Network components play a crucial role in stabilizing potential frequency fluctuations while increasing operational safety, power and voltage quality. The components can be installed linked to transmission grid expansion or be installed as individual investments. The need for grid stabilizing and power quality improvement increases as more intermittent and renewable energy sources are integrated to the European energy grid.

Justification

In order to support the development of clean gases, the definition of 'smart gas grids' should not be limited to digital solutions but broadened to cover necessary technical investments such as valves, compressor stations and metering infrastructure. This will allow for more comprehensive approach in terms blending of renewable and decarbonised gases with natural gas. Storage systems constitute an important part of the process and therefore should also be included. Taking into account that blending of renewable and low-carbon gases with natural gas will be instrumental in scaling up hydrogen production capacities, projects which relate to retrofitting of current gas infrastructure and contribute to decarbonisation of the gas infrastructure should be eligible for the PCI status.

Justification

The TEN-E regulation is supposed to deal with trans-European networks in the area of energy infrastructures according to art. 170 - 172 TFUE. The rapporteur disagrees with the Commission’s intention to deviate from this scope by creating a specific PCI category for electrolyser facilities. They cannot be considered as contributing to interconnection or interoperability of national networks, nor their trans-European character can be justified. The suggested cross-border impact of electrolysers (direct or indirect benefits to at least two Member States) and sustainability criteria (greenhouse gas emissions savings) could on that basis be potentially extended to any production source based on renewable sources.

AM\1230651EN.docx 201/219 PE692.695v01-00 EN Justification

The concept of smart gas networks entails that they act as storage facility for renewable energy sources. Hence, it is proposed to evaluate candidate PCI projects in the category of smart grids also against the criterion of avoided curtailment of renewable electricity generation. At the same time savings should not be limited to costs aspects, but entail a broader concept, such as GHG emission reduction related savings and efficient use of energy.
