Benefit Description
The project aims to increase the capacity of the pipeline section between Sines and Leiria, to enable that higher flow rates can be transported from the
Sines LNG Terminal. The project will increase the interoperability and system flexibility and consequently support intermitent renewable generation, mainly
from the high share of wind generation capacity installed in Portugal and Spain. With the expansion of the Sines LNG Terminal and the consequent
increase in their regasification capacity to RNTGN, this project will contribute for the diversification of supply sources and also supplying counter parts.
From the strategic and planning point of view, the Carregado CS is proposed in order to integrate the other infrastructures of the RNTIAT, namely the

Description
Regulatory
In simple terms and according to the current Portuguese regulation, the revenue stream will be obtained by the remuneration of the net invested capital
of the project plus the amortization recovery and the opex cost recovery (subject to a mix of price cap and revenue cap regimes). These revenues will be
ensured through the payment of regulated TPA tariffs by network users Nevertheless, it·s important to notice that it is not possible to predict if, when and
to what extent any changes to this model may occur.
