4.5.6 ANALYSIS OF PROJECTS SCHEDULE
Figure 4.10 and figure 4.11 show the distribution of submitted projects according to
the expected commissioning year, also in an aggregated way.
The analysis of project submissions shows:
\\
An average of 10 months between the planned FID and the expected start of
construction
\\
An average of 2 years and 2 months between the expected dates of start of
construction and commissioning
The way FID is taken by each promoter may differ. Some may take FID after the
granting of permits and some, before initiating the permitting procedure. Those per-
mitting procedures often make out the longest phase of the whole project schedule
which then often lasts more than 5 years. Moreover, the analysis is not necessarily
indicative of the project lead time for any future projects as there are, among the pro-
jects, some small and some very complex ones.
ENTSOG has analysed the advancement of projects between TYNDP 2015 and
TYNDP 2017. Out of the 234 projects included in TYNDP 2017, 175 were already
part of TYNDP 2015 (FID and non-FID), from which 137 have reported an expect-
ed commissioning year in both editions.
