The GHG emission reduction objective set by the EU energy-climate package has a direct impact on the electricity mix to be expected by 2020 and beyond. 

How does it impact the objective of security of supply? Will there be an electricity supply gap in Europe if the nuclear phase-out was maintained? Can the 30% GHG emission reduction be achieved while ensuring EU energy security of supply? How can Europe Energy policy be adapted to reach both climate and security of supply objectives?
