11/10/2021 (Agence Europe) – Negotiators from the Council of the European Union and the European Parliament will meet on Wednesday 13 October for the first session of inter-institutional negotiations (‘trilogues’) on the proposed revision of the EU regulation (347/2013) on Trans-European Energy Networks (TEN-E). Unveiled on 15 December 2020, this revision of the TEN-E Regulation aims to align it with the objectives of the ‘European Green Deal’ by reforming in particular the criteria for the formation of the lists of ‘projects of common interest’ (PCIs), which allow trans-European energy infrastructure projects to benefit from certain advantages such as European funding (see EUROPE 12623/3). While the proposal gave rise to lively debates in both the EU Council and the Parliament (particularly on the issue of fossil gas), the two institutions finally adopted their respective positions on 11 June (see EUROPE 12739/1) and 28 September (see EUROPE 12800/2).
