A sustainable energy security strategy, based on the protection of the environment and the achievement of the MDGs, should foster the development of renewable sources of energy, such as solar energy, wind power and biomass and low impact sources of energy such as small-scale hydropower plants.

3. Is of the opinion that the statistics in the application do not give a full picture of the EU wind energy market and points to the European Statistics "Wind in Power" demonstrating that in 2009 - the period when Glasfiber decided to close down the factories - wind power capacity installed in the EU grew by 23% compared to 2008 and that wind power installations accounted for 39% of new installations, the second consecutive year that more wind power was installed than any other generating technology; notes, however, that, according to the Danish Wind Industry Association, in 2009 in total 4 000 jobs were lost in Danish wind turbines industry;

6. Regrets in this respect that no information is available as to the extend to which the potential and future needs of the EU wind energy market has been taken into consideration in the decision on the closure of the plants in Lunderskov and Hammelev; deplores a total lack of consistency in the EU's objectives and industrial strategy; expresses concern about this particular relocation and points out the risk of importation of wind turbines produced in China to the European market;

I would ask the Commission to respond to this point in particular, and to ensure that the money be spent on a proposal to provide clean energy from North Korea's electricity plants, by reconstructing its ancient conventional energy plants so as to make them efficient, by contributing to the proposed gas pipeline from Irkutsk as well as developing the great potential in Korea for wind and solar energy, bio-mass and geothermics.

In the absence of turbine orders, the companies that have historically had a basis in North America, like General Electric, are competing primarily against the European manufacturers that do not have a Canadian or U.S. presence from a manufacturing and assembly standpoint.
