I mí Aibreáin 2022, bhunaigh an Coimisiún agus na Ballstáit Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh agus é de chuspóir leis sin soláthairtí fuinnimh a chinntiú don Aontas.
In April 2022, the Commission and the Member States established the EU Energy Platform with the objective to secure energy supplies for the EU.
Agus Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh á úsáid chun an t-éileamh a chomhiomlánú ar mhaithe leis an bhféidearthacht gás a cheannach go comhpháirteach, féadtar rannchuidiú le líonadh stórála a chomhordú ar bhealach níos fearr.
The use of the EU Energy Platform for the aggregation of demand with a view to potential joint purchase of gas can contribute to better coordination of storage filling.
D’fhógair an Coimisiún Eorpach gur bunaíodh Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh lena ndéantar foráil, inter alia, maidir le gás a d’fhéadfaí a cheannach go comhpháirteach, socrú a d’fhormhuinigh an Chomhairle Eorpach ina conclúidí an 30 agus an 31 Bealtaine 2022.
The European Commission has announced the setting up of the EU Energy Platform providing, inter alia, for the potential joint purchase of gas, an arrangement endorsed by the European Council in its conclusions of 30 and 31 May 2022.
Sa teachtaireacht uaidh an 18 Bealtaine 2022 dar teideal “Plean REPowerEU”, d’fhógair an Coimisiún go mbunófaí Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh in éineacht leis na Ballstáit chun gás, gás nádúrtha leachtaithe (GNL) agus hidrigin a cheannach go comhpháirteach.
The Commission announced in its communication of 18 May 2022 entitled ‘REPowerEU plan’ the setting up of an EU Energy Purchase Platform together with the Member States for the common purchase of gas, liquified natural gas (LNG) and hydrogen.
Is féidir ról lárnach a bheith ag Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh maidir le comhpháirtíochtaí comhthairbheacha a lorg a chuireann le slándáil an tsoláthair agus a mbíonn praghsanna allmhairiúcháin níos ísle ar ghás a cheannaítear ó thríú tíortha mar thoradh orthu, agus leas iomlán á bhaint as ualach comhchoiteann an Aontais.
The EU Energy Purchase Platform can play a pivotal role in seeking mutually beneficial partnerships that contribute to security of supply and lead to lower import prices of gas purchased from third countries, making full use of the Union’s collective weight.
Go háirithe, le comhordú i bhfad níos láidre leis na Ballstáit agus i measc na mBallstát maidir le tríú tíortha trí Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh, d’áiritheofaí go mbeadh ualach comhchoiteann an Aontais níos éifeachtaí.
In particular a much stronger coordination with and among Member States via-à-vis third countries via the EU Energy Purchase Platform would ensure the Union’s collective weight is more effective.
Agus Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh á úsáid chun an t-éileamh a chomhiomlánú d’fhonn gás a cheannach go comhpháirteach, féadtar rannchuidiú le líonadh stórála a chomhordú ar bhealach níos fearr ach síneadh a chur leis.
The use of the EU Energy Platform for the aggregation of demand with a view to the joint purchase of gas, if prolonged, could contribute to a better coordination of storage filling.
I mí na Nollag 2022, rinne an tAontas céimeanna breise chun ceannach comhpháirteach gáis a oibríochtú faoi Ardán an Aontais Eorpaigh um Cheannach Fuinnimh agus chun an dlúthpháirtíocht i measc na mBallstát a mhéadú, gníomhaíochtaí ar ríthábhachtach iad chun a áirithiú go ndéanfar an stóras gáis a líonadh roimh gheimhreadh 2023/24.
In December 2022, the EU took further steps to operationalise joint purchasing of gas under the EU Energy Platform and increase solidarity among Member States, crucial actions to ensure storage filling ahead of the winter 2023/24.
