EU: Renewable energy

United Kingdom

A Common Position has been adopted regarding a proposal for a multi-annual programme for the promotion of renewable energy sources in the Community (ALTENER) (1998-2002). Some of the proposed amendments to the original proposed legislation have not been adopted as the Council believed them to be covered by provisions included in other Decisions of the energy framework programme. A final Decision is expected shortly.
