Voorbeeldzinnen

  1. The market price of fossil fuels reported by Italy for comparisons with gas oil emulsions is an average of the prices of gas oil over the first 15 days of March 2006 [17].
  2. Emissions from combustion of fossil fuels in manufacturing industries, construction and mining and quarrying (except coal mines and oil and gas extraction) including combustion for the generation of electricity and heat (IPCC source category 1A2).
  3. In Sardinia, which accounts for 4,1 % of net installed power in Italy [104], electricity is produced mainly in thermoelectric power plants using fossil fuels (coal, fuel oil, refinery tar).
  4. In the case of gas oil emulsions used as motor fuel Italy applies the minimum tax rate of EUR 302 only to the fossil fuel part of the blend.
  5. This information, which concerns gas and electricity consumed by industry for energy end-users, will also enable comparisons to be drawn with other energy sources (oil, coal, fossil and renewable energy sources) and other consumers.
  6. In comparison to the normal rate for fossil fuels that applies in Italy, the advantages of the measure in terms of the reduced rates are as follows (all reductions are granted per litre of the gas oil emulsion concerned and per kilogram of the heavy fuel oil concerned):
  7. A provisional countervailing duty is hereby imposed on imports of fatty-acid mono-alkyl esters and/or paraffinic gas oil obtained from synthesis and/or hydro-treatment, of non-fossil origin, commonly known as ‘biodiesel’, in pure form or in a blend containing by weight more than 20 % of fatty-acid mono-alkyl esters and/or paraffinic gas oil obtained from synthesis and/or hydro-treatment, of non-fossil origin, falling within CN codes ex15162098 (TARIC code 1516209820), ex15180091 (TARIC code 1518009120), ex15180099 (TARIC code 1518009920), ex27101941 (TARIC code 2710194120), 38249091, ex38249097 (TARIC code 3824909787), and originating in the United States of America.
  8. Current projections in the EU and worldwide show most of the crucial energy indicators (e.g. energy consumption, fossil fuel dependency, the finite nature of conventional oil and natural gas reserves, import dependency, CO2 emissions, energy prices) to be moving away from a sustainable and reliable energy system.
