ENTSOG GRIP CEE 2014-2023 / Main Report

5.1.4 The Czech Republic

The supply corridor on the following picture shows the main route of gas for the Czech Republic which is under normal condition through Ukraine and Slovakia (marked as CZ1). Other supply corridors in case of supply disruption through Ukraine are through Germany (marked as CZ2 and CZ3). The remaining capacity that could be used for gas transmission to Slovakia and Poland in such disruption scenario was used as the input for the evaluation of regional N-1 for Slovakia and Poland correspondingly. Two investment projects will be commissioned after 2019 which are planned as part of the North-South gas corridor. The projects will build better connection with Poland and first connection with Austria.
