Fluxys in France
France at the heart of Europe's gas system
France plays an important role in Europe's energy landscape. Its geographical position provides access to a wide range of supply sources while connecting the Iberian Peninsula, Northwestern Europe and international LNG flows to major consumption markets.
Through its investments and partnerships in France, Fluxys helps facilitate secure and flexible gas flows, supporting market integration and supply diversification across Europe. Together with transmission networks and LNG infrastructure, these assets contribute to maintaining reliable energy supplies for households, businesses and industry.
Access to European market zones
One of the key strengths of France's gas infrastructure is its connection to neighbouring countries and major European market areas. Market participants can access several trading hubs and transmission routes, creating opportunities to optimise supply portfolios and respond to market developments.
The infrastructure in France strengthens connectivity between:
- France’s PEG market
- Belgium's ZTP market
- Northwestern European gas markets
- Global LNG supply routes
This connectivity helps shippers access multiple sources of natural gas and biomethane while maintaining flexibility in their energy strategy.
LNG in France: a gateway to global supply
A major component of France's gas infrastructure is the Dunkerque LNG terminal, one of Europe's largest LNG import facilities. The terminal connects international LNG markets with the European gas network, providing valuable diversification of supply sources.
Through this infrastructure, customers can import, store, regasify and distribute LNG, creating additional flexibility for gas supply across Europe.
