1 Mod 219 - Publication of UK Wholesale Gas Market Liquidity Data Richard Fairholme E.ON UK Transmission Workstream, August 7 th 2008

2 © 2007 E.ON01 June 2015, E.ON UK, Page 2 Introduction Typically, the amount traded daily between shippers on the NTS is around 20-25 TWh, but the amount that actually ends up as a supply flow is around 2-3 TWh. This includes both spot trades and forward trades for the gas day. “The UK gas market is one of the most liquid in the world and the most liquid in Europe.” Source: BERR Guide to Gas Market Liquidity (2007)

4 © 2007 E.ON01 June 2015, E.ON UK, Page 4 The Mod Proposal “One measure of liquidity is the ratio of the volumes of gas traded over the volumes of gas consumed.” Source: BERR Guide to Gas Market Liquidity (2007)  We propose publication of aggregated NBP traded volumes (‘Total Gas Traded at NBP’) compared to physical daily gas flows (‘Total Daily Physical’).  Makes liquidity data more accessible, in one location for all market participants.  Makes more efficient use of existing data already collected by National Grid and provided by Shippers.

Reports to be updated daily and published no later than 13:00 GMT at D+1 on National Grid NTS’s website.

Provides customers / consumers and other market participants with highly visible, transparent market liquidity data. Helps provide a “health check” for the market. May remove barriers to entry for potential market participants.
