Translation of "hydro development " (English → French) :

E. whereas the use of renewable energy technologies is essential for developing countries to reduce their dependence on fossil fuel imports and related price volatility; whereas large-scale renewable projects (such as hydro or energy crops) can also have severe social and environmental consequences for the local population, i.e. on water or food security; whereas a careful assessment of the environmental impacts of renewable energy technologies is therefore an important prerequisite for donor finance,

42. Underlines that particular attention should be paid to ensuring security of energy supply and diversifying energy sources, while at the same time improving energy efficiency, and reiterates the need for further progress in implementing the 2005 Energy Efficiency Law; draws particular attention to Albania's considerable potential as regards renewable energy sources, and calls for more efforts to develop them further, bearing in mind that most of the country's energy supply framework is in the process of being developed; welcomes, in this regard, new projects in the hydro-power sector, and calls for more efforts to be made with regard to the development of solar ...[+++]and wind energy projects; points out that investment in energy from renewable sources creates opportunities for growth and employment at local and regional level;

3. To this end the cooperation will concentrate, in particular, on economic and social development, human resources development, support for enterprises (including privatisation, investment and development of financial services), agriculture and food (including food security), energy (including hydro-electricity), water management and civil nuclear safety, health and the fight against poverty, transport, postal services, electronic communications, tourism, environmental protection, cross-border activities and regional cooperation.

- support for the development and use of renewable energy (wind, solar, biomass, hydro, geothermal) in the EU and in third countries, together with the inclusion of more programmes for clean and efficient energy in the EU's development policy, which would ensure a fair transfer of technologies, and bring benefits in terms of leadership in developing international markets, although it must be remembered that, in the development and use of the abovementioned renewable energies, a certain lead time is necessary before they become profita ...[+++]ble;

the impact of project mechanisms on host countries, particularly on their development objectives, whether JI and CDM hydro-electric power production projects activities with a generating capacity exceeding 500 MW and having negative environmental and or social impacts have been approved, and the future use of CERs or ERUs resulting from any such hydro-electric power production project activities in the Community scheme;

Of these two and a half million jobs, for example, I do not know how many went to Italy and, in particular, to southern Italy, where unemployment is extremely serious and where, if we wished it, we could maybe – this is my suggestion, but it is worth careful consideration – combine the problems of sustainable development and those associated with resolving the question of employment: I refer to the possibility of providing incentives to promote the access of young people to the world of work in the form of a minimum starting salary, with the aim, for example, of achieving hydro-geological redevelopment of the region.
