South-North Corridor GRIP 2017
3.2.2 DEMAND BREAKDOWN
In this paragraph, the data regarding the total annual demand for the period
2010 – 2015 are analysed splitting them into different consumption sectors.
Accordingly with the data gathered by ENTSOG for TYNDP 2017, the following two
categories have been considered:
\\
final demand (residential, commercial, industrial and transportation)
\\
power generation demand
The graphs in Figure 3.7, Figure 3.8 and Figure 3.9 illustrate the total annual de-
mand breakdown into the above-mentioned categories, for the South-North Corridor
countries, the rest of EU-28 countries and the whole of EU-28, respectively.
Based on the graphs to the right, the amount of gas used for power generation in the
South-North Corridor has been relatively higher than the one consumed for the
same purposes in the other EU-28 countries. Furthermore, in the last years the
demand for power generation in the South-North Corridor decreased with a very
small rate, if compared to the considerable decline registered by the demand for
power generation in the other EU-28 countries.
