Pakiet Zimowy – Czysta energia dla wszystkich Europejczyków czy raczej koniec krajowych polityk energetycznych?
Winter Package - Clean energy for all Europeans or rather the end of the National Energy Policies?

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to present the thesis, according to which legislative proposals that are included in the Clean Energy for All Europeans package (the so-called "Winter Package") significantly affects Member States’ right to pursue their own energy policy. Key provisions of the proposed legislation, especially those included in the proposed Energy Market Regulation: additional requirements for the national capacity markets (European adequacy assessment, emissions performance standard) and the establishment of the Regional Operational Centres, would transfer some of Member States’ competences necessary to to ensure energy security to the EU-level. At the same time, the additional EU-level competences are not accompanied by clear liability rules and cost sharing methodology during possible system crises. Therefore, some of the regulatory solutions in the Winter Package may be regarded as inconsistent with the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
