The Energy Union Communication:
• Highlights the importance of open and free energy markets, but…
• Misses an essential focus on how this will deliver competitive energy thus
fostering growth with the ultimate objective of reversing the decline in industrial
value creation in Europe;
• Lacks recognition of the continued need and role of petroleum products in the EU
economy;
• Dismisses petroleum products and refining as involving ‘old technologies’
implying the use of low skilled labour, while the reality is exactly the opposite;
• Does not provide any information on the transition steps towards low carbon
economy. A balanced and economically realistic pathway needs to be developed,
which would provide a clear and consistent steps to bridge the gap between the
vision laid out and the current reality of energy use
Energy Union – an incomplete package?
John Cooper, FuelsEurope – CEE & Turkey Refining and Petrochemicals 2015
• Ambitious regulatory targets for EU refiners create the need for effective carbon leakage measures to prevent an increase in global emissions and the relocation of EU industry and jobs
EU Refining Competitiveness and Impact of Regulation - Conclusions
Page 11
• European refineries compete in a highly competitive global market for refined petroleum products
• High costs for energy & regulatory compliance create a significant
cost disadvantage versus export-oriented refineries outside of EU
• The increasing product import flow to the EU effectively means that
refinery GHG emissions are being exported outside of ETS – “carbon
leakage”
• Moreover, the non-EU refineries exporting to EU are likely to have
relatively higher GHG emissions, causing a net increase in global
emissions
• Current regulatory proposals for ETS Phase IV and Industrial Emissions will
further increase the cost burden on EU refiners
