25. 25 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 3. Regional network integration EFET

26. 26 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 Action Plan – Priority 5 Regional Entry-Exit Tariff System (REETS)  REETS as the final step of a regional integration process which includes interconnection agreements, harmonisation of transmission rules and access rules, co-ordinated investment planning, regional balancing and joint regional network operations  promotion of a cost reflective transportation pricing systems that makes easier market access for new shippers, increases liquidity and foster hub development 3. Regional E/E system – Background

27. 27 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008  Milan, March 2007: presentation of the document: “On requirements to introduce a regional one stop shop provider and an entry exit tariff system. A preliminary study.”  Maribor, October 2007: presentation of benchmarking results and simulation of introduction of REETS “Towards a Regional Entry-Exit System in the SSE Gas Market. A preliminary study”, presented at the 3rd IG Maribor 9th October 2007  Prague, January 2008: presentation of the final version of the paper and launch of a two months consultation  The revised version, after consultation, presented at the 4th SG in Athens and published on the web site 3. Regional E/E system – Background

28. 28 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 The study provides theoretical arguments both for and against the introduction of regional entry exit tariff system (REETS) ++ efficiency-- tariffs unstable ++ liquidity-- changes in current users tariffs and impact on final prices ++ market power reduction -- heavily affected by changes of transport patterns induced by pipeline reinforcements or by new routes ++ investment incentives 3. Regional E/E system – Summary I

29. 29 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008  The study provides a stylised simulation of a regional entry-exit tariff system, using approximate though plausible data  Main assumptions: no change in total TSO revenue entry points at import points in the region and main domestic and storage areas; exit points at exports points and virtual national consumption areas, revenue = costs  Simulation of increased costs (+20%) to pay for enhancements of selected congested pipelines 3. Regional E/E system – Summary II

30. 30 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008  Transportation costs are generally significantly reduced by the REETS for destinations that are farther from the gas source, and increased for closer ones (increased competition between gas sources)  Increases in transportation costs do not exceed 2.5% of the average European border price in the worse case, (i.e. about 1% of the retail price for small customers and be partly offset by switching to supply sources whose transportation cost was reduced)  Tariffs would be moderately increased by including the incremental cost of pipeline reinforcement  The inclusion in the system of major new routes that substantially affect transportation patterns, could lead to large tariffs increases falling disproportionately on affected areas, at least in the short term: an entry exit tariff system for TPA to transportation services should go hand in hand with a system of exemptions for new infrastructure 3. Regional E/E system – Simulations I

31. 31 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008  Ex ante inter TSO compensation mechanisms seems relatively easy to be set up.  Competition would be stimulated also by the transparency and simplicity of the tariff system, and even more by its likely stability.  Most difficulties origin from lack of harmonisation in contract, capacity booking, allocation mechanisms, as well as congestion management and balancing 3. Regional E/E system – Simulations II

32. 32 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008  Paper: “Towards a Regional Entry-Exit System in the SSE Gas Market. A preliminary study”, 3rd SG Prague 22rd January 2008 stakeholders invited to comment by 31st March 2008  Only two comments received by stakeholders  OMV  Geoplin plinovodi OMV position:  strong reservations on the entry-exit methodology itself and its efficacy in managing cross-subsides: LT contracts and distance tariffs are more efficient in the gas market  a clear scenario of current and future shippers is lacking as well as the impact of different flows of gas  inter TSO compensation is a politically sensitive issue and more critical than described in the paper as it has a high conflict potential 3. Regional E/E system – Consultation process

33. 33 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 Geoplin plinovodi comments:  Requests of clarifications on  the methodology used to calculate some data referred to Geoplin plinovodi network (tariffs, estimated transmission costs, booked capacity)  how domestic pipelines costs are covered  Provision of alternative data which were welcome and used in new simulation: no major changes in results es expected (Geoplin plinovodi 2% of TSO costs in the region) but more accuracy in the paper 3. Regional E/E system – Consultation process

34. 34 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008  The study clarifies that it includes costs related to the main lines which are used or might be used for international routes; costs of secondary network are covered by separate tariffs  It discusses cost reflectivity in the case of meshed transport systems and use for backhaul flows  It includes additional considerations on the impact on the EE model of new relevant capacity expansion 3. Regional E/E system – Revised version

35. 35 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008  It provides a medium long term vision and a tool to:  better identify major obstacles in the process of market integration, in the light  verify consistency of the single step of the process  The study might be amended or update in the future in case of significant changes in the underlying assumptions 3. Regional E/E system – Role of the study

36. 36 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 3. Conclusion of IPAs/OBAs in Baumgarten  E-Control opened a procedure against  OMV Gas GmbH  TAG GmbH and  BOG GmbH according to Section 31a (2) of the Austrian Natural Gas Act in combination with Section 10 (1) of the Austrian Energy Regulatory Authorities Act  Section 31a (2) obliges TSOs “to supply adequate information to the operator of line or storage facilities connected to their own facilities so as to ensure safe and efficient operation, co-ordinated extension and interoperability of the systems, and to enter into contracts on the transfer and acceptance modalities with the operator of such connected facility”.

51. 51 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 Key findings by route (1) Route 1: UKRAINE-SK-CZ-GER Route 1: UKRAINE-SK-CZ-GER capacity increase expected in Baumgarten after the Nord Stream pipelines comes into operation Improvements in terms of development of secondary market and congestion mechanisms in the last years, decreasing capacity available in the Slovak part (nearly to zero); capacity increase expected in Baumgarten after the Nord Stream pipelines comes into operation. In the Slovak Republic, balancing and nomination based on Gazprom standards. Route 2: UKRAINE-SK-A-SI Physical congestion at some interconnection points along the route and lack of appropriate LT congestion management on TAG system. TAG undertook to build two new compressors which will increase capacity by 1st October 2008 and by 1st October 2009.

52. 52 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 Key findings by route (2) Route 3: UKRAINE-SK-A-I Viability represents a bottleneck to the Italian market Lack of appropriate long term congestion management on TAG system despite new capacity available from October 2008 and 2009, also on a short term basis. Route 4: UKRAINE-SK-A-GER The transport of natural gas on the whole route from Velke Kapusany to Oberkappel on a firm basis is not possible due to contractual congestion at some interconnection points. Market survey launched to solve the problem. Route 5: BELARUS-PL-GER TPA service only under permission of shareholders (Gazprom-Export); infringement procedure on going Route 6: ALGERIA-I-A-SK Access conditions to Tunesian and Mediterranean section and related regulation are the main problem. Lack of harmonisation with neighbouring networks may also hinder usage for other markets

53. 53 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 Conclusions Despite progresses in the last two years…. positive improvements in congestion managementpositive improvements in congestion management development of secondary markets standard bulletin boards market survey development of IPA/OBA agreementsdevelopment of IPA/OBA agreements

54. 54 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 Conclusions ….there are still difficulties for newcomers in terms of access to transportation routes in the region secondary markets are still not sufficiently developed and in some case not facilitated by TSOs UIOLI provisions in contractual congestion are often weak lack of capacity is still a major shortcoming both in terms of physical capacity (e.g. TAG) and contractual one (BOG) inadequate LT congestion management provisions even in cases where new investments are planned IPA/OBA agreements still not sufficiently finalised (i.e.nomination provision based on Gazprom’s standards are still far from EAASE’s) still no progress on ROUTE 5 where, “TPA service may be provided only under permission of main shareholders, especially Gazprom-Export”

55. 55 4th SG meeting, Athens, 10 June 2008 Conclusions The improvements recorded after 2 years are to a large extent the result of the pro-active dialogue promoted by the SSE – GRI among all stakeholders The improvements recorded after 2 years are to a large extent the result of the pro-active dialogue promoted by the SSE – GRI among all stakeholders The persisting difficulties on major transportation routes in the region confirm the priorities of the Action Plan The persisting difficulties on major transportation routes in the region confirm the priorities of the Action Plan There might however be the need to focus more on: There might however be the need to focus more on: the effective state of development and expected impact of new investments in the regionthe effective state of development and expected impact of new investments in the region short term congestion management mechanisms’ effectivenessshort term congestion management mechanisms’ effectiveness additional analysis on: balancing; hub developmentadditional analysis on: balancing; hub development
