Specific Criteria Fulfilled Comments
Market Integration and Competition: The project will reinforce the existing linking between Northern and Southern European markets
thanks to 1) its connections with hubs in the North (France, Germany, Benelux countries, Northern Italy, Switzerland and further east...) and 2)
its role in the "LNG flexible floating pipelines" from and to the South (Spain, Italy, Greece, Malta...). Security of Supply: LNG contributes by
itself to SoS (cf. LNG sourcing below). Moreover as LNG is at first transported by LNG vessels, it will be always more efficient to get LNG
delivered nearest to where gas is needed. Sustainability: Gas/LNG is an ideal partner for intermittent renewable energy sources (e.g. wind and
solar). Moreover the project will contribute to the development of LNG as a clean alternative fuel for trucks and ships.
