Abstract:
The paper aims to provide an oversight on
the new European Union’s energy policy: the
establishment and functioning of Europe-wide energy
transportation networks. A common European energy
strategy and corresponding policy of the European
Union has been established after the revision of the
fundamental Treaties and the establishment of the
Lisbon Treaty in 2009. The aim is to provide the delivery
of sustainable, secure and competitive energy necessary
for the functioning of the European Union. The paper
argues that such steps are in accordance with the
European Union’s new competence, without exceeding
it.
