ENTSOG TYNDP 2017 - Main Report

Ten-Year Network Development Plan 2017 Main Report |

The following two chapters covers the projects submitted to TYNDP. The

Infrastruc-

ture chapter

provides a detailed overview of gas infrastructure projects as submit-

ted by the promoters. It details the project collection process, informs on the project

statuses and infrastructure levels, and provides an in-depth analysis of the projects,

including in terms of progress since the previous TYNDP and regarding investment

costs. The

Barriers to Investment chapter

analyses the obstacles to future

investment in gas infrastructure, combining the views of all TSOs and other project

promoters. These chapters are supported by Annex A which provides all non-confidential information on the projects submitted as well as project fiches, and by

the

TYNDP project Map

The

Assessment chapter

represents the TYNDP-Step of the Energy System Wide

Cost-Benefit Analysis Methodology. It consists of the

Supply Adequacy Outlook

, the

Assessment of the infrastructure needs

under the low infrastructure level and the

Energy System Wide assessment of the advanced projects

. The analysis covers the

three assessed scenarios (Blue Transition, Green Evolution, EU Green Revolution),

looking at the sustainability, security of supply, competition and market integration

perspectives. A specific section is dedicated to analysing the overall impact of the

PCI list projects as a feedback loop. This chapter is supported by Annex D which

provides detailed information on the topology and capacities, existing and developed

by projects for the different infrastructure levels. It is also supported by Annex E,

which provides all modelling results, and Annex F, which describes the modelling

tool and modelling methodology. Assessment Chapter is also complemented by the

Energy Transition chapter

providing an insight into how gas infrastructure can be

an essential part of the future integrated energy system based on sector coupling.

The last chapter covers the

Long-term Gas Quality Monitoring Outlook

, based on

the TYNDP results and developed in accordance with the Regulation (EU)

No. 2015/703. It is supported by Annex G which provides additional quantitative

results. In addition, the required L to H conversion of areas currently supplied by

L-gas in parts of the North-West region is assessed in the related North-West Gas

Regional Investment Plan, based on the TYNDP CBA methodology and using data

consistent with the TYNDP.
