In its communication on 'the share of renewable energy in the EU' of 26 May 2004, the Commission estimates that 'with the measures that have been put in place (...) the share of renewable energy sources in the EU 15 is on course to reach 10% in 2010 .

The shortfall compared to the 12% target is caused by sluggish growth of renewable energy markets for heating and cooling, leading to the conclusion that considerable extra action is needed in this sector to enable the full 12% target to be reached.'

Subject: Legal basis of the own-initiative report on Heating and Cooling from Renewable Energy Sources ( 2005/2122(INI) )
Rada postupem podle článku 251 po konzultaci s Hospodářským a sociálním výborem a Výborem regionů rozhodne, jakou činnost bude Společenství vyvíjet, aby bylo dosaženo cílů uvedených v článku 174.
The Council, acting in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 251 and after consulting the Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions, shall decide what action is to be taken by the Community in order to achieve the objectives referred to in Article 174.
– udržování, ochrana a zlepšování kvality životního prostředí,
— preserving, protecting and improving the quality of the environment,
– ochrana lidského zdraví,
— protecting human health,
– obezřetné a racionální využívání přírodních zdrojů,
— prudent and rational utilisation of natural resources,
1 písm.u) Smlouvy o ES se stanoví, že činnosti Společenství musí zahrnovat „opatření v oblasti energie ...“.
Article 3(1)(u) of the EC Treaty provides that the activities of the Community are to include "measures in the sphere of energy ...".
Pro oblast energetiky však není k dispozici zvláštní právní základ a v Prohlášení (č. 1) o civilní obraně, energetice a cestovním ruchu přiloženém ke Smlouvě o EU, Komise stanovila, že činnosti Společenství v těchto oblastech budou prováděny na základě současných ustanovení Smluv, které zakládají Evropská společenství.
But there is no specific legal basis for energy and in Declaration (No 1) on civil protection, energy and tourism annexed to the EU Treaty the Commission declared that Community action in those spheres would be pursued on the basis of the present provisions of the Treaties establishing the European Communities.

Cíl a obsah zprávy z vlastního podnětu
The aim and content of the own-initiative report
1 a 2 se uvádí, že „cílem návrhu je zvýšit podíl obnovitelných energií v EU v oblasti vytápění a chlazení ze současných zhruba 10 % na 25 % v roce 2020“ a že „zvýšení podílu obnovitelných energií v oblasti vytápění a chlazení má podstatně přispět k zabezpečení zásobování energií v Evropě a dosažení podstatného snížení závislosti Evropy především na naftě a plynu.“
Paragraphs 1 and 2 of Section A state as follows: "The objective of the proposal is to increase the share of renewable energy used for heating and cooling in the EU from the present level of approximately 10% to 25% by 2020" and "An increase in the share of renewable energy used for heating and cooling should make a substantive contribution to securing European energy supplies and significantly reduce Europe's dependence on oil and gas in particular".
Obnovitelnými zdroji energie se rozumí geotermální energie, solární energie a biomasa.
The forms of energy concerned are defined as geothermal, solar thermal and biomass.
V části B II výbor ITRE navrhuje, aby byly odstraněny administrativní překážky, které brání výstavbě elektráren využívajících obnovitelné zdroje energie.
Under Section BII, ITRE proposes to remove administrative barriers to building renewable energy plants.
V části B III jsou stanoveny zásady, které musí splňovat vnitrostátní finanční nástroje.
Under Section BIII, a number of principles are set out which national financial instruments must comply with.
Kromě toho tu jsou navrženy různé stimulační mechanismy (včetně daňových výhod, přímé investiční podpory atd.).
Moreover, a number of incentive mechanisms are proposed (including tax advantages, direct investment aid, etc).
Závěrečná opatření se týkají informačních kampaní pro veřejnost a možnosti zažádat o sníženou sazbu DPH na materiály a služby využívané v souvislosti s vytápěním a chlazením (část B IV).
Lastly provision is made for public information campaigns and the possibility of applying a reduced rate of VAT to materials and services for the utilisation of heating and cooling (Section BIV).
