An application conference, organised by the Lower Saxony State Authority for Mining, Energy and Geology (LBEG), has been held in Brackel (Lower Saxony) in the administrative district of Harburg, marking the launch of the first phase of the energy planning permission procedure for a natural gas compressor station to expand the North European Gas Pipeline (NEL).
The concerned German Transmission System Operators (TSOs) have jointly agreed on a possible model for the VIP-implementation („Virtual Interconnection Points“)
Fluxys Deutschland now also offers capacities on NEL at the new market area interconnection point Achim II between the market areas GASPOOL and NCG.
Fluxys Deutschland has updated the “Appendix 1 to Annex 5 – Tariff information for allocation for new technical capacities” with a reduced price cap for the new technical capacities which are going to be auctioned on the European capacity platform PRISMA on March 6, 2017.
Today the North West European Transmission System Operators have published their Gas Regional Investment Plan 2017 (North West Gas Regional Investment Plan – NW GRIP 2017). Besides the update of all elements related to infrastructure development in the Region, the NW GRIP 2017 focuses on the way gas infrastructure can contribute to a sustainable energy transition and on the conversion of L-gas to H-gas in Belgium, France and Germany.
Fluxys Deutschland GmbH has published the final tariffs. They shall apply retroactively as of 01 January 2017.
The TSOs of the South-North Corridor Region have today released the third edition of their Gas Regional Investment Plan in line with Article 12(1) of the Regulation (EC) N° 715/2009. This third edition builds further on the previous editions of the SNC GRIP, while also complementing the Ten-Year Network Development Plan 2017, and has been jointly coordinated by Snam Rete Gas and Fluxys Belgium.
FluxSwiss has implemented the Reverse Flow project as planned. South-to-north physical reverse flow capacity is now available to the market on both transit routes: from Italy to France since 1 June 2018 and since 1 October 2018 from Italy to Germany as well.
As from 17 May until 30 May 2021 participate in our Subscription Window for LNG services at the Zeebrugge LNG Terminal.
As a result of the efforts to increase the availability of data towards the market, FluxSwiss has designed and published its own Electronic Data Platform.
As a result of Swiss TSOs receiving higher nominations towards Switzerland rather than towards Italy at the Interconnection Point Passo Gries, in the period between 8 and 12 October 2020 a changeover from physical forward to physical reverse flow was observed at Passo Gries.
Guest commentary of FluxSwiss in the Neue Zürcher Zeitung: instead of investing time and money in a complicated regulation of a bygone era for the Transitgas-pipeline, Switzerland should rather leverage on the European Green Deal momentum.
In the first weekend of October, short-term capacity sales performed by FluxSwiss led to remarkable nominations by shippers in both North-to-South and South-to-North directions.
Such nominations triggered within-day flow changeover from Forward to Reverse Flow and vice versa on the Transitgas pipeline.
The Swiss network was not only designed to transmit natural gas and bridge northern and southern European energy markets, but also to meet future energy demand like hydrogen and biogas transport.
No capacity has been awarded through the Tender for Summer Capacity Reservation Fee, as the received bids did not reach the minimum score.
Over the last weekend, short-term capacity sales performed by FluxSwiss led to significant nominations by our shippers on the path from Italy to France. These nominations triggered physical reverse flow at IP Oltingue for the first time ever.
On May 31st, FluxSwiss will launch a tender for a new innovative product: a group of six monthly products from October 2021 to March 2022, structured as capacity reservation with a later confirmation of the service.
Following up on the agreement reached in 2022, FluxSwiss, Swissgas and Transitgas in their capacity as Swiss Transmission System Operators have agreed to extend to Gas Year 2023 the so-called “Emergency Procedure” aimed at mitigating the impact of a possible gas emergency affecting the Swiss domestic market by means of specific inter-TSO measures.
We intend to launch in the second half of April a subscription window for unloading slots and additional storage services at the Zeebrugge LNG terminal. The subscription window is a highly attractive opportunity for you to secure LNG Terminalling capacity with an experienced capacity provider at a key strategic location providing optimum destination flexibility.
We are pleased to announce Raoul Raffagli as new Deputy CEO of FluxSwiss. Commercial Manager at FluxSwiss since 2015, Raoul succeeds Nicolas Grégoire who recently passed away unexpectedly.
