European Federation of Executives in the Sectors of Energy and related Research
On the event of the celebration of Ignalina NPP federation’s 25th anniversary, Thomas Schneider, President of FECER european energy sectoral federation of managers, has sent a warm letter of congratulations and support to the President Dranik, the delegates and members of the Independent Trade Union of SE Ignalina NPP.
In this letter he recalls the conditions in which Ignalia NPP federation was created and its commitments with the managers and with the employees of the power plant.
The Spanish capital was the choice for FECER’s Steering Committee meeting 2015 which took place on September 24th/25th and was dominated by the EU concept for an Energy Union.
FECSE, the Spanish member organization, acted as host and succeeded in organizing a highly attractive technical programme prior to the formal meeting.

What is TTIP ?
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) is a commercial partnership agreement, currently (since 2013) being negotiated between the European Union and the United States.
It aims to remove trade barriers existing today in many sectors of activity, in order to facilitate trade in goods and services between the United States and the EU and thus generate additional trade flows in both directions.
Beyond tariffs, it seeks to bring down all other barriers for exporters from norms, standards and procedures for approvals.
TTIP negotiations also aim to open markets in services, investments and public procurement.
This agreement, in view of the volume of trade between the United States and the European Union, will likely redefine the framework of global trade.
For us, to succeed in the refounding of the European project, we must rethink the current «Europe’s software», and keep-up favoring the balance of economic and social performance factors and long-term investments.
This applies in particular in the field of energy, which is at the heart of the daily lives of citizens and the European economy.
Reducing the carbon intensity of the economy ought to be the heart of the Clean Energy Package.
As energy policy must be helpful to European industry and driven by high quality job creation, the «energy only and short-term market» can’t be an objective in itself !

En 2011, la chancelière allemande Angela Merkel a décidé d’accélérer la sortie du nucléaire.
In July 2015, FECER and CEC signed a letter of support to CFE-CGC Energies, combined with a master network engineering, engaged in their European project « Reinventing industrial relations in Europe with and for Youth : A research applied to energy transition « , developed as part of a call for proposals from the European Commission.
The project aims to raise awareness and increase interest in the issues of social dialogue for students of European universities.
