Future roleoftransit countries andtheirimpact on European securityofnatural gas supplies 22 June 2011 I Caroline Dieckhoener
Agenda Motivation Methodology Results Conclusion
Background andmotivation • Back- • ground • Decreasing European production • Increasingimportdependency • European securityofsupplypolicy • Security of gas imports • Diversificationofsupplysources • Diversificationofsupplyroutes • Transit countries andtheirimpact on securityofsupply • Severalmajorpipelineprojectsareplanned (Nord Stream, Nabucco, etc.) • Lessimportanceofformertransitpipelines? • Effects on European securityofsupply?
Agenda Motivation Methodology Results Conclusion
Scenarios Study comprisestwoparts (fourscenariosforeachpart): • Gas flowscenariosfor 2020 – utilizationofroutes • (S0) Simulation for 2008 • (S1) Nord Stream • (S1H) Nord Stream andhighdemand • (S2) Nord Stream plus Nabucco • Security ofsupplyscenarios Nord Stream disruptionmodeled • withand • withouttransitroutes (SK, CZ)
Agenda Motivation Methodology Results Conclusion
I. Country-specific in- andoutflows Czech Republic Slovakia Intermediate results: Low utilizationof route throughSlovakiaandespecially Czech Republic
Security ofsupply in an efficientlyregulatedtransportmarket Whatif TSOs decidetoclose-down routes? Suppliers regulated Transmission systemoperators Consumers Regulator‘sdecision: Shut-down ortransporttariffsthatreflect SOS premium?
Howtoanalyzeshort-termsecurityofsupplyeffects? • Start withworst-casescenario • Scenario-basedanalysis • Overviewofimpactof SOS eventsandlevelofrisks • Cost-benefitanalysis MC ofsupplyrisk = MC ofsupplysecurity (MC demandreduction = MC of additional infrastructure, accountingforprobabilityofdisruption)

(A) Nord Stream disruption – shutdownoftransitroutes – Peak day in 2020 Average European marginal supplycostchanges on peakdayweightedbydemand: 5.04% Security ofsupplyeffectsare regional
Agenda Motivation Methodology Results Conclusion
Conclusion Low utilizationofformertransitroutes (SK and CZ) → shut-down? • Ifsecurityofsupplyrisks not coveredby private sector Security ofsupplyeffectsofworstcase (Nord Stream disruption)? • Marginal supplycostincreases in EU-27 onlybetween 5 to 6% on average • But risksvarysignificantlybetweentheregions in Europe • Further research: Analyzingcostsandbenefitsof SOS • Regional approach?
