Implementation of EASEE-gas’ rules Or …Working towards a functioning European gas network European Association for the Streamlining of Energy Exchange Maribor October 9, 2007
European Commission Member States Regulators Industry European Association for the Streamlining of Energy Exchange- gas • Created in March 2002 with the support of the European Gas Regulatory Forum (‘Madrid Forum’) • Mission: “To develop and promote common practices to simplify and streamline business processes between the stakeholders that will lead to an efficient and effective European Gas Market” • Registered office in Paris, France
Organisation Basic principles • Open, independent and fully transparent • Structured and balanced voting • Represents the entire gas chain, open to all stakeholders • Provides a working platform for the gas industry • Voluntary guidelines unless adopted by a governmental agency

Common Data Communications Network Message transmission protocol Company’s Identifier encoding Connection point identifier encoding Harmonisation of the allocation information exchange Edig@s revision and version rules Secondary trading of capacity 2007 CBPs Approved Sep 2007 Out for consultation – expected to be approved Nov 2007 Under development
Survey carried out in Aug/Sep 2007 Additional responses from Finland, Sweden and Switzerland Fewer responses from some other countries Responses cover 18 markets/ systems
All respondents indicated that all markets/systems in the survey are using bar to measure pressure CBP1 Harmonisation of Units Pressure: bar CBP element implemented
Most markets appear to use Coordinated Universal Time UK & IRL require Network Code changes SWI indicates systems and financial issues AUT indicates legislative and regulatory changes required ESP and ITA have not stated barriers CBP2 Nomination & Matching ProcessUse of Coordinated Universal Time CBP element implemented CBP element not implemented CBP element not implemented due to regulatory/legislative issues
Most markets appear to use Lesser Rule for matching FIN only has single source, so no need for matching The GBR regime does not include matching and agents act for the shippers at interfaces. There are no requests from shippers to change existing arrangements IRL, NIR, IUK and POR use matching but not with Lesser Rule in all cases All would require Network Code and/or Interconnection Agreement changes CBP2 Nomination & Matching ProcessLesser Rule applies to matchingMessages to contain matching shipper CBP element implemented CBP element not implemented
Some markets are not complying with nomination deadlines FIN only has single source, so deadlines agreed bilaterally DEN and SWE working to implement CBP in near future Most others have quoted Interconnection Agreements and Network Code changes as barriers to implementation No specific barriers mentioned in ITA CBP2 Nomination & Matching ProcessDeadlines for initial nominations CBP element implemented CBP element in process of being implemented CBP element not implemented
Generally well adopted through central area of Europe FIN only has single source so communications agreed Some systems in GER use it and others do not All others indicate IT issues, internal resource and/or financial issues as barriers GBR & SWE also indicate Network Code changes are required No specific barriers mentioned in ITA or ESP CBP 3 Use of Edig@s CBP element implemented CBP element implemented in some systems CBP element not implemented CBP element not implemented due to regulatory/legislative issues
In most systems the CBP has been implemented, partly implemented or is in the process of being implemented FIN single source SWE old limits are close & need agreement with DEN BEL, DEN, NOR in process of implementing all limits GER some systems adopted ahead of new DVGW spec. NED implemented at some points but legacy problems slowing down others GBR & POR require legislative changes to technical specs IRL & NIR linked to GB spec. AUT requires changes to OVGW CBP4 Gas qualityHarmonisation of S, CO2, WDP, HCDP CBP element implemented CBP element implemented in some systems CBP element close to being implemented CBP element not implemented CBP element not implemented due to regulatory/legislative issues
Most systems are either making progress towards the 01/10/2010 deadline or are waiting for the results of the CEN study before implementing changes GB also has a Government review to conclude IRL & NIR are linked directly to the GB spec. Changes required to interconnection agreements in POR SWE gave no indication of progress CBP4 Gas qualityHarmonisation of Wobbe, RI, Oxygen CBP element implemented CBP element in process of being implemented CBP element not implemented CBP element not implemented due to regulatory/legislative issues
Quite good progress is being made particularly in markets with largest interconnection Non-implementation does not always mean an issue of interoperability (e.g. Finland, Sweden, Ireland) Some legislative and regulatory barriers to implementation in some countries (Units & Quality) National regulation needs to provide the proper framework/support to allow implementation Can take time to modify national network codes and needs support from all market participants Countries further east have issue of compliance … with single supplier Survey conclusions
Implementation of EASEE-Gas CBP in the SSE region relies on a number of factors to be effective • More feedback and active membership needed, along the whole natural gas value chain in SSE • Better feedback from EASEE-Gas members: • Czech Republic • Slovenia • Poland • Feedback from non-EASEE-Gas members: • Producers, shippers, TSOs, DSOs, suppliers/service providers • Especially in the South East Region • BOTH in ERGEG/EU member states • AND in neighbouring countries, e.g. countries of the Energy Community
Participation in EASEE-Gas CBPOn a voluntary basis • Green:Respondent already • Yellow:GRI REM SSE, non respondent • Light blue:EnC members • Dark blue:EnC observer countries • Involvement sought from GRI REM SSE and EnC countries • EASEE-Gas now to approach market participants in these countries
Benefits of participating in EASEE-Gas andFuture role of EASEE-GAS • EASEE-Gas: A broad platform for structured CBP development and implementation monitoring (?) • EASEE-Gas ideally suited to play the role of a multi-stakeholder platform involving all stakeholder within the natural gas value chain • EASEE-GAS hence as the ideal vehicle for consultation: Strengths of the EASEE-gas consultation process 3rd PackageInteraction needed Success of the development of codes and standardswill crucially rely on the involvement of all stakeholdersnot just transmission system operators
