Question for written answer
to the Commission
Rule 117
Nikolaos Chountis (GUE/NGL)

 Subject: Greece's long-term energy policy
 Answer(s) 

In a letter to the Greek Minister for the Environment and Energy (16 April 2012), the Commissioner for Energy Günther Oettinger, stated: ‘I note your commitments, which we had discussed and which you confirmed to me in your letter. More specifically, as you know, it is important for us that you not only examine financial revenue when deciding on a purchaser for DEPA/DESFA, but that you also take long-term energy policy assessments duly into consideration in your decision’.

Given the above, will the Commission say:

1. What is Greece’s long-term energy policy and when was it adopted by the Greek authorities? What are its fundamental characteristics?
2. On the basis of which regulation or directive must long-term energy policy be ‘duly’ taken into consideration together with financial revenue?
