EU-Russia Energy Cooperation Roadmap APPROACH • Aim - to make visible and facilitate the realization of the potential for long-term cooperation in energy sphere • The EU and Russian energy policies are different, but there do exist such areas where these policies converge and thereby mutually explored and mutually beneficial synergies may arise • The Roadmap should include necessary milestones and consider its practical realization issues • The adopted Roadmap should provide for some kind of generalized work plan of the EU-Russia Energy Dialog activities FORMAT PROBLEMS How to construct the mutual part of our energy future? Which part of uncertainty could and should be thus diminished? How to create the pathway to this future? How efficient may be results of our cooperation along this pathway? How to prevent this pathway from being destroyed by our policies? How to combine the flexibility and definiteness of the pathway?

Risks associated with the implementation of the EU’s Third Energy Package provisions • Areas of concern • Cross-border issues are left unregulated:import, export, transit and the corresponding structure on the EU’s external borders • No provision is made for robust mechanism to raise investments for infrastructure development • Exemptions to be granted to new energy transportation projects : criteria are blurry and the procedure is overly bureaucratic • Requirements set for foreign companies to be certified as transmission system operators are discriminatory • Risks arise for: • Gas exports to EU • Security of electricity supply • Long-term contracts • Large infrastructure projects • Investment protection
Joint Projects of Russian and European Companies in Gas Sector:NORD STREAM
Joint Projects of Russian and European Companies in Gas Sector:SOUTH STREAM
Possible measures for the establishment of joint system to ensure secure gas supply • Collaborative design of the unified system of reliable gas supply to Europe • Lifting restrictions and obstacles to the development of gas storage facilities in the EU by gas suppliers • Prompt cooperation between the parties as early as the nearest winterization season, with gradual accumulation of experience and, simultaneously, raising public awareness on the importance of the planned activities • Application in the EU of experience gained by Gazprom’s dispatch and control centers and making arrangements for their cooperation with the existing EU structures and structures being created
Russia & EU Power Systems Synchronous Operation BRELL: AugstspriegumaTikls (Latvia) Elering (Estonia) Litgrid (Lithuania) SO UPS, JSC (Russia) FGC UES, JSC (Russia) Belenergo(Belarus) • Power flows in BRELL synchronous zone: • BRELL mechanisms deficiency: • electric modes planning (transfer capacity, reserves) • electric modes control (congestion management) • lack of the economical mechanisms of market procedures & interaction coordination • lack of responsibilities and obligations of the parties to maintain operational characteristics • coordination of the network development plans
