41. Stresses the need to explore ways of improving energy efficiency and environmental management within the armed forces at home and abroad by exploiting, among others, the potential offered by renewable energy sources; recalls that the armed forces of a single EU Member State consume the energy of a large European city and that military structures, therefore, should be equally innovative in reducing their ecological footprint; welcomes the report ‘Greening the Blue Helmets: Environment, Natural Resources and UN Peacekeeping Operat ...[+++]ions’, released in May 2012 by UNEP, the United Nations Department for Peacekeeping Operations (UNDPKO) and the United Nation Department of Field Support (UNDFS); points to the fact that, for several years, the US armed forces have been actively seeking to increase energy independence by using sustainable energy sources and increasing energy efficiency in all army operations and infrastructure; welcomes, in this respect, the recent EDA project GO GREEN, which aims at significantly improving energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources; underlines the need also to develop guidelines for best practises in the field of resource efficiency and the monitoring of environmental management for CSDP missions;

J. whereas, given the Internal Market and the need for improved innovation and efficiency, the Commission naturally refers to consumption targets for electricity from renewable energy, also since this would tend to share the cost among all EU consumers, and create an EU-wide 'pull effect' for renewables, while its own White Paper sets an overall EU production target, although these two ideas are not in fact incompatible; but whereas cross-border trade in electricity generated from renewables to meet those consumption targets would initially be subject to neither rules on terms of trade, nor proper certification, since no systems are in ...[+++] place, thereby potentially causing the different support systems chosen under subsidiarity by Member States to undermine one another, leading also to a tendency for rather localised development at the best sites ('hot spots'), so that some transitionary phase is required while rules are put in place,
