ENTSOG GRIP SNC 2014-2023
E. WALLBACH (DE/CH)
Similar to the French / Switzerland IP, the interconnection between Germany and Switzerland reached its highest levels in February 2012, in relation to the cold snap, and its maximum in coincidence with additional import needs for Italy (possibly linked to temporary interruptions from North-Africa supplies, such as Libyan gas). Like Oltingue IP, technical capacities are nearly fully booked, with maximum use in case of supply shortages downstream.
