2.

The Commission shall, not later than 27 October 2005, present a well-documented report on experience gained with the application and coexistence of the different mechanisms referred to in paragraph 1. The report shall assess the success, including cost-effectiveness, of the support systems referred to in paragraph 1 in promoting the consumption of electricity produced from renewable energy sources in conformity with the national indicative targets referred to in Article 3(2). This report shall, if necessary, be accompanied by a proposal for a Community framework with regard to support schemes for electricity produced from renewable energy sources. Any proposal for a framework should: contribute to the achievement of the national indicative targets; be compatible with the principles of the internal electricity market; take into account the characteristics of different sources of renewable energy, together with the different technologies, and geographical differences; promote the use of renewable energy sources in an effective way, and be simple and, at the same time, as efficient as possible, particularly in terms of cost; include sufficient transitional periods for national support systems of at least seven years and maintain investor confidence.
