<p>The UK Government strongly supports a well-functioning and competitive internal EU energy market. This will be important in maintaining secure supplies and competitive prices, supporting growth and jobs and in achieving our climate change targets in the most cost-effective way. Considerable progress has been made as a result of the implementation of the Third Package of internal energy market legislation, but more needs to be done. A range of initiatives are under way, including the development of EU-wide technical and market rules, the identification and facilitation of strategic energy infrastructure projects, and work to explore the feasibility of cross border renewables trading.</p> |
