Editor's Notes
La transposition complète et correcte des dispositions de la directive dans les systèmes juridiques nationaux est essentielle pour assurer le développer des SER. La soumission des rapports de progrès nationaux est prévue par la Directive ENR. Tous les rapports d’avancement nationaux reçus par la Commission à ce jour (incluant le rapport soumis par la France) sont disponibles en ligne sur le site de la DG Energie. Le rapport soumis par la France indique que la part totale des sources d’énergie renouvelables en 2010 s’élevait à 12.8%. La France suit donc la trajectoire prévue vers son objectif de 2020. Sur la base des informations fournies par les EM, la Commission rédigera un rapport d’avancement européen d’ici la fin de l’année 2012 ll appartient aux Etats Membres de décider des mécanismes de soutien aux énergies renouvelables, notamment financiers. Néanmoins, la Commission a récemment rappelé l’importance de garantir un cadre stable et sécurisé aux opérateurs économiques (cf: Communication de janvier 2011 intitulée " Energie 2020: Stratégie pour une énergie compétitive, durable et sûre « ). Dans ce contexte, la Commission maintient une surveillance des mécanismes de soutien dans l'ensemble des EM et entretient un dialogue régulier avec les EM sur ces questions.
Research will cover: Electric vehicle – performance, range, safety, energy efficiency and compatibility with smart grids Vehicle batteries – safety, durability and charging time as well as their performance under different environmental conditions cooperation between the JRC and the Argonne National Laboratories in the US will promote global standards and address the interoperability issues between electric vehicles, smart grids and recharging systems.
Future and Emerging Technologies ( FET )
Co-operation between the Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission and the United States Department of Energy (DoE) DoE and the JRC intend to take the following steps: Establish two Electric Vehicle / Smart Grid Interoperability Labs, Such twin centres could: play an active role in standardization, promoting a common approach between the US and EU testing of relevant electric vehicle and smart grid equipment, and the fostering of global standards; address the interoperability issues between e-vehicles, smart grids and recharging systems, including all connectivity and communication capabilities required for the joint work of all components; provide testing facilities for electric vehicles and the related supply equipment, and participate in each others' inter-laboratory comparisons ("ring tests"/"round robins"); ensure a permanent link with US and EU car industry. Establish a small DoE-JRC task force to prepare a work plan for these interoperability hubs outlining common goals and final targets.
