Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee, and the Comittee of the Regions

The EU's new energy and environment policy agreed by the European Council in March 2007 establishes a forward-looking political agenda to achieve the Community’s core energy objectives of sustainability, competitiveness and security of supply.
