IMPLEMENTING THE 3rd EU ENERGY PACKAGE Removing the barriers to help the market to work Its an open market, But I was here first.
Physical hub ( e.g border point) Huberator @ Zeebrugge IMPLEMENTING THE 3rd EU ENERGY PACKAGE Traded markets are needed for clear price signals Virtual hub (in-grid balancing point) NBP Trading hub with limited price transparency GD TTF EGT CEGH @ Baumgarten PEG N NB. Not all trading locations are shown PSV
IMPLEMENTING THE 3rd EU ENERGY PACKAGE Regional markets may provide long-term solutions E.g. IEA view of possible gas market development • Large trading hubs are needed for sufficient liquidity. • Gas takes far longer to travel than electricity • High economic cost of full interconnection across whole of EU. • EU gas market will be a series of ‘pools’ rather than a ‘copper plate’ • LNG and pipeline gas need access to balancing pools
IMPLEMENTING THE 3rd EU ENERGY PACKAGE Some issues to tackle now • Share understanding of the EU gas market design • Clear plans to establish market-based balancing • Improved provision of fundamental data • Multi-system operation (Regional cooperation) • Maximising capacity for market participants • Consistent regulatory approach to x-border investment • Encouraging competitive markets (gas hubs, storage etc...)
