The Community shall promote gas and electricity infrastructure projects having the highest Community added value and contributing to the following objectives:
security and diversification of sources of energy, routes and supplies;
the optimisation of the capacity of the energy network and the integration of the internal energy market, in particular concerning cross-border sections;
the development of the network to strengthen economic and social cohesion by reducing the isolation of the least favoured regions or islands of the Community;
the connection and integration of renewable energy resources; and
the safety, reliability and interoperability of interconnected energy networks, including the ability to use multidirectional gas flows where necessary.
The EEPR shall serve urgently to adapt and develop energy networks of particular importance to the Community in support of the operation of the internal energy market and, in particular, to increase interconnection capacity, security and diversification of supply and to overcome environmental, technical and financial obstacles. Special Community support is necessary to develop energy networks more intensively and to accelerate their construction, notably where the diversity of routes and sources of supply is low.
