166. Stresses that, in this regard, all the EU’s funding options for boosting safe and sustainable low-carbon energy technologies, energy efficiency, renewables, smart grids, decentralised production, flexible generation, electrical storage and electrification of the transport system must be fully exploited; calls on the Commission to intensify its research efforts on, and roll-out of, such technologies to meet its 2020, 2030 and longer-term objectives, and to improve its energy security and facilitate economic recovery; expects the mid-term review of the Horizon 2020 research programme to reflect these priorities; recalls that the Ho ...[+++]rizon 2020’s Energy Challenge is designed to support the transition to a reliable, sustainable and competitive energy system that has its main priorities listed under the headings Energy Efficiency, Low Carbon Technologies and Smart Cities & Communities; recalls that at least 85 % of the energy challenge in the budget of Horizon 2020 is to be spent in non-fossil fuels areas, within which at least 15 % of the overall energy challenge budget is to be spent on market up-take activities of renewable and energy efficiency technologies;

28. Underlines the important carbon emission mitigation potential of climate-resilient forests through enhanced sequestration, storage and substitution; also emphasises the potential of bio and wood-based products, and especially a sustainable bioenergy sector, and the importance of forests and other land uses in maintaining and increasing carbon sequestration and storage; highlights that when combined with Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology, biomass as a fuel for energy generation can bring significant reductions in carbon emissions; calls for renewable raw materials, such as those from agriculture, grasslands and forestry, ...[+++]to be recognised and incentivised for their emission mitigation and for their contribution to green growth and the decarbonisation of the economy; notes that total global carbon emissions from forests decreased by more than 25 % between 2001 and 2015, mainly due to a slowdown in global deforestation rates, and calls therefore on the EU to scale up international finance for reducing deforestation in developing countries; notes the need to establish a simple, transparent and coherent accounting framework for emissions and removals in LULUCF sectors;

The Renewable Energy Technologies Investment Tax Credit programme provides an annual corporate tax credit to all eligible entities for all capital costs, operation and maintenance costs, and research and development costs incurred between 1 July 2012, and 30 June 2016, in connection with an investment in the production, storage, and distribution of biodiesel, ethanol, and other renewable fuel in the state of Florida.
