6 Questions for discussion How could the Commission motivate MSs to pledge themselves to sufficiently ambitious national RES targets? How should the European Commission proceed, if the aggregated national pledges do not reach 27%? Are there MS related benchmarks needed for the 2030 RES target achievements? If benchmarks are needed, what should be the followed methodology flat rate, GDP/capita or RES potential based distribution or other? Is there any other suggestions for the methods for closing the gap to the target (if exist)? (e.g. EU wide auctioning of missing RES production?) 6
