Overview
The Network Codes are EU-wide rules facilitating cross-border gas flows and the overall smooth interconnection of gas infrastructure across European Member States. On the basis of the third liberalisation package, the European Commission, ACER and ENTSOG were tasked with developing a unified set of rules concerning the integration of the gas market as well as system operation and development – the network codes (NCs).
Currently, European NCs and guidelines are near to being entirely implemented in all EU member states. They represent an important and unique achievement of setting rules for the internal energy market for which, at once, they form the pre-condition for harmonised rules for the market functioning, for system operation and for smooth transmition.
Key Facts
What you will learn with this EU Gas Network Codes program from Florence School of Transnational Governance:
- How the NCs are designed and developed – gas NCs’ regulatory background, linked to their practical implementation in various EU member states
- Gas regulatory knowledge about the rationale and scope of the EU gas NCs in the EU gas markets
- The practical implications NCs have to the creation of the EU internal gas market
- The challenges and benefits stemming from their implementation
