Ukwandisa ukhuseleko lwe-EU lonikezelo lwamandla, iBhunga namhlanje lamkele ummiselo kwi ukucuthwa ngokuzithandela kwemfuno yegesi nge-15% kobu busika. Ummiselo ubona kwangaphambili ukuba kunokwenzeka ukuba iBhunga liqalise 'isilumkiso seManyano' malunga nokhuseleko lonikezelo, kwimeko apho ukuncitshiswa kwemfuno yerhasi kuya kuba sisinyanzelo.
Injongo yokunciphisa imfuno yegesi ku yenza ukugcinwa kobu busika, ukwenzela ukulungiselela ukuphazamiseka okunokwenzeka kwegesi evela eRashiya, eqhubeka isebenzisa izixhobo zamandla njengesixhobo.
Amazwe angamalungu avumile ukunciphisa imfuno yegesi nge-15% xa kuthelekiswa nomndilili wokusetyenziswa kwawo kule minyaka mihlanu idlulileyo. phakathi kwe-1 Agasti 2022 kunye ne-31 Matshi 2023, kunye nemilinganiselo yokuzikhethela kwabo.
Ngelixa onke amazwe angamalungu aya kusebenzisa iinzame zawo ezingcono ukuhlangabezana nonciphiso, iBhunga ichaze ukhululo oluthile kunye namathuba okusebenzisa ngokuyinxenye okanye kwezinye iimeko ukunxaxha ngokupheleleyo ukusuka kwithagethi yokunciphisa okusinyanzelo, ukwenzela ukubonisa iimeko ezithile zamazwe angamalungu kunye nokuqinisekisa ukuba ukucutha kwegesi kuyasebenza ekwandiseni ukhuseleko lokubonelela kwi-EU.
IBhunga livumile ukuba amazwe angamalungu angadityaniswanga kuthungelwano lwerhasi yamanye amazwe angamalungu axolelwe ekuncitshisweni kwerhasi okunyanzelekileyo njengoko engenakukwazi ukukhulula umthamo omkhulu werhasi ukuze kuxhamle amanye amazwe angamalungu. Amazwe angamalungu aneegridi zombane ezingadityaniswanga kunye nenkqubo yombane yaseYurophu kwaye axhomekeke ngakumbi kwirhasi kwimveliso yombane nawo aya kukhululwa kwimeko yokuba akhutshiwe kwigridi yelizwe lesithathu, ukwenzela ukuphepha umngcipheko wengxaki yobonelelo lombane.
Amazwe angamalungu angakwazi ukunciphisa iithagethi zawo zokunciphisa ukulungelelanisa izibophelelo zokunciphisa imfuno ukuba anonxibelelwano olulinganiselweyo kwamanye amazwe angamalungu kwaye banokubonisa ukuba amandla abo okuthumela ngaphandle kunye neziseko zabo ze-LNG zasekhaya zisetyenziselwa ukubuyisela igesi kwamanye amazwe angamalungu ngokupheleleyo.
Amazwe angamalungu angaphinda anciphise ithagethi yawo yokunciphisa ukuba baye bagqithisa kwiithagethi zabo zokuzaliswa kwegesi yokugcina igesi, ukuba baxhomekeke kakhulu kwigesi njengento yokutya kumashishini abalulekileyo okanye banokusebenzisa indlela yokubala eyahlukileyo ukuba ukusetyenziswa kwabo kwegesi kuye kwanda ubuncinane nge-8% kunyaka ophelileyo xa kuthelekiswa nomndilili weminyaka emihlanu edlulileyo.
Amazwe angamalungu avumile ukomeleza indima yeBhunga ekuqaliseni 'iManyano yokulumkisa'. Esi silumkiso siya kuqaliswa liBhunga eliphumeza isigqibo, lisebenza ngokwesiphakamiso seKomishoni. IKomishoni iya kuthi thaca isindululo sokuxhokonxa 'Isilumkiso seManyano' xa kukho umngcipheko omkhulu wokunqongophala kwerhasi emandla okanye imfuno yerhasi ephezulu kakhulu, okanye ukuba amazwe amahlanu nangaphezulu athe abhengeza isilumkiso kwinqanaba likazwelonke acela iKomishoni ukuba yenza njalo.
Xa bekhetha imilinganiselo yokunciphisa imfuno, amazwe angamalungu avumile ukuba aya kuthathela ingqalelo amanyathelo aphambili angachaphazeli abathengi abakhuselweyo njengamakhaya kunye neenkonzo ezibalulekileyo ekusebenzeni koluntu njengamaqumrhu abalulekileyo, ukhathalelo lwempilo kunye nokhuselo. Amanyathelo anokwenzeka aquka ukunciphisa igesi esetyenzisiweyo kwicandelo lombane, amanyathelo okukhuthaza ukutshintsha kwamafutha kwishishini, amaphulo okwazisa ulwazi lwesizwe, izibophelelo ezijoliswe kuzo zokunciphisa ukufudumeza kunye nokupholisa kunye namanyathelo asekelwe kwiimarike ezifana nefandesi phakathi kweenkampani.
Amazwe angamalungu aya kuhlaziya izicwangciso zawo zelizwe likaxakeka ezichaza amanyathelo okunciphisa imfuno abawacwangcisayo, kwaye baya kunika ingxelo rhoqo kwiKomishoni malunga nokuqhubela phambili kwezicwangciso zabo.
Ummiselo wamkelwa ngokusesikweni ngenkqubo ebhaliweyo. Oku kwamkelwa kulandela isivumelwano sezopolitiko ekufikelelwe kuso ngabaphathiswa kwiBhunga lezaMandla aNgaqhelekanga ngomhla wama-26 kweyeKhala. Ummiselo ngoku uya kupapashwa kwiJenali eseMthethweni kwaye uqale ukusebenza ngosuku olulandelayo.
Ummiselo linyathelo elikhethekileyo nelingaqhelekanga, elibonwa kwangaphambili ixesha elithile. Kuya kusebenza unyaka omnye kwaye iKomishoni iya kuqhuba uphononongo lokuqwalasela ukwandiswa kwayo ngokubhekiselele kwimeko yokubonelela ngegesi ye-EU ngokubanzi, ngoMeyi ka-2023.
imvelaphi
I-EU ijongene nokhuseleko olunokwenzeka lwengxaki yokubonelela ngokunciphisa kakhulu ukuhanjiswa kwegesi evela eRashiya kunye nomngcipheko omkhulu wokumisa ngokupheleleyo, apho amazwe angamalungu kufuneka alungiselele ngokukhawuleza ngendlela edibeneyo kunye nomoya wokubambisana. Nangona ingengawo onke amazwe angamalungu ajongene nomngcipheko omkhulu wokhuseleko lonikezelo, ukuphazamiseka okukhulu kumazwe athile angamalungu kunyanzelekile ukuba kuchaphazele uqoqosho lwe-EU ngokubanzi.
Incedisa amalinge e-EU asele ekhona kunye nomthetho, oqinisekisa ukuba abemi banokuxhamla kwiinkonzo zegesi ezikhuselekileyo kunye nokuba abathengi bakhuselekile ekuphazamisekeni okukhulu konikezelo, ngokukodwa uMmiselo (EU) 2017/1938 kukhuseleko lonikezelo lwegesi.
Lo mmiselo ulandela amanye amalinge asele eqhubekile okuphucula ukomelela kwe-EU kunye nokhuseleko lonikezelo lwerhasi kuquka nolawulo lokugcinwa kwegesi, ukudalwa kwe-EU Energy Platform yokuthenga ngokudibeneyo kunye namanyathelo adweliswe kwisicwangciso se-REPowerEU.
