Following the Cardiff Summit, increasing attention is being given by the European Environment Agency to the monitoring of the progress of the integration of environmental concerns into the energy sectors policies and to the assessment of the effectiveness of related policy instruments.
The energy sector has been defined to include all energy related activities, both energy supply activities (coal, oil and gas exploration and extraction, public electricity and heat production, refineries and other industries engaged in transforming primary energy into other energy products) and energy consumption activities (from the transport, industry, household, services and agriculture sectors). The Agencys activities related to the energy sector (and its interaction with environment) requires access to a wide range of expertise, in particular on the integrated assessment of pressures/impacts engendered by the sector, energy - environment policy integration, energy economy, pricing, taxation, technology, links with other sectors etc. In addition, expertise will also be required regarding the wider sustainability concerns, including energy related socio-economic and health impacts and benefits.
Taking into account the priorities in the current and coming EEA work programmes, and the expertise currently available in the EEA and in its EIONET network (in particular European Topic Centres) and the co-operation with Eurostat (responsible for providing most of the statistics on developments in the socio-economic sectors), expertise is being sought to support the development of the Agencys energy related activities and the preparation of the Agencys 2002-2004 activities and projects on energy and the environment.
