6.3.1.2 Support to the North-West market and bidirectional
Cross-Border flows
The second phase is scheduled for commissioning in September 2018 and involves
the construction of pipelines Cervignano–Mortara (62 km – DN 1400) and
Minerbio–Poggio Renatico (19km – DN1200, already in operation since December
2015), as well as new compression plants in Minerbio (24MW) and Sergnano
(45MW) and the expansion of the existing compression plant in Poggio Renatico
(+25MW).
The total length of new pipelines envisaged by this second project phase is 81km,
for an overall additional compression power of 94MW. These investments will make
available a new capacity of 35MSm³/d (around 375 GWh/d). Summed up to the
capacity already created by the first investment phase, the total reverse flow capacity
available at the commissioning date will reach the level of 40MSm³/d (around
429GWh/d), 22MSm³/d (around 238 GWh/d) at Griespass exit IP and 18MSm³
(around 191 GWh/d) as competing capacity between Griespass exit and Tarvisio exit
IPs.
The project “Support to the North-West market and bidirectional cross-border flows”
is included in ENTSOG TYNDP 2017 with the identification code TRA-F-214.
