Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
Recognising that climate change poses one of the world"s greatest challenges, this new CEPS Task Force report identifies priority areas for coherent EU domestic policies in the short, medium and long term. It gives a first indication of what would be implied in concrete terms for the EU to meet its target of limiting the future global average temperature increase to 2°C above its pre-industrial level. The focus is on policy coherence, cost-effective mitigation options in the short and medium-term and the interaction of such options with international negotiations in the "post-2012 framework". Towards that end, the report frames key elements of a rational and credible EU strategy for "beyond Kyoto."

Energy Policy for Europe
Author: Knud Pedersen
Publisher: CEPS
ISBN: 9290797738
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
"The European Union has entered a new and crucial stage in energy policy. After the adoption of legally binding targets to address climate change, energy security and competitiveness, the 27 member states are now turning their attention to the implementation of these targets. However, with an unfinished internal market for gas and electricity and with member states continuing to focus on bilateral energy relationships with supplier countries, the EU is still at the very beginning of a common EU energy policy." "This report from the CEPS Task Force on Energy Policy for Europe contributes to the debate about an emerging 'first-generation' EU energy policy. It identifies those policy areas that are expected to benefit most from deeper EU integration, i.e. where the European 'added-value' is expected to be greatest, and formulates recommendations on how such integration could be achieved in practice. In particular, the report calls for the development of more and better energy policy indicators against which to assess member state energy policies to ensure policy coherence at the EU and member state level."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
The European Security Forum brings together senior officials and experts from EU and Euro-Atlantic Partnership countries, including the United States and Russia, to discuss security issues of strategic importance to Europe. Now in its sixth year of operation, the Forum is jointly directed by the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS), the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces (DCAF), and the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) in London. The ambition of this fourth annual volume of Readings in European Security is to serve as a prism through which the EU's external relations and security can be assessed, with contributions from its American and Russian partners. The book contains the complete set of working papers presented and discussed from January through December 2006. During this period, international experts tackled highly topical strategic issues ranging from the security of energy supplies in Europe to Ukraine's strategic security to Islamic extremism in Europe to the strategic implications of the failed EU Constitutional Treaty.

European Energy Security: What Should it Mean? What to Do?
Author:
Publisher: CEPS
ISBN: 9290796677
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 36
Book Description
Tackling the multifaceted theme of the security of EU energy supplies, this ESF Working Paper contains highly topical and authoritative contributions by four main authors. From the point of view of EU policy, Christian Egenhofer considers the issues involved in "Integrating Security of Supply, Market Liberalisation and Climate Change", with reference to the European Commission's 2006 Green Paper on energy. Elaborating on supply relations with Russia and Eastern Europe, Leonid Grigoriev presents "Growth and Growth with Energy". Vladimir Socor examines options for diversification in the "Caspian-Black Sea Region: Key to Diversifying Europe's Energy Supplies". Alan Riley takes a critical look at the role of energy market liberalisation in enhancing energy security and its (lack of) progress in the EU in "Energy Security, Gas Market Liberalisation and Our Energy Relationship with Russia". Finally, the paper benefits from a substantial summing-up by François Heisbourg.
