This response is limited in scope to the EU Taxonomy activity 4.5 Electricity generation from hydropower. Swedenergy welcomes the Commissions intention to simplify the Do No Significant Harm (DNSH) criteria for hydropower and to better align them with the safeguards of the Water Framework Directive (WFD), as stated in recital 24.

Main comments from Swedenergy: - Include nuclear power and bioenergy technologies in the list of strategic net-zero technologies. - Include also conventional nuclear power and not only emerging nuclear technologies. Further comments and motivations can be find in the attached file.
Swedenergy is the Swedish trade organisation gathering approximately 400 companies producing, distributing, sells and stores electricity, district heating and district cooling in Sweden. We welcome the European Commission's (EC) proposal to build on and further develop the current market model.
Swedenergy supports the objective of RfG 2.0 to maintain system security and resilience, but the revised code must remain proportionate, predictable and based on clearly demonstrated system needs. Requirements should focus on capabilities that provide measurable benefits to system stability and should preserve long-term investment conditions for existing generation assets, including hydropower.
We consider that it is good that the requirements for access to customer data for supplier switching are tightened in such a way that the customer must approve access to the information. This reduces the risk of fraud and identity theft. However, it is important that it does not become too complicated for customers to switch suppliers.
