Figure 2.5:
The sources of natural gas supply in the BEMIP region
There are four gas exchanges operating in the region: Kaasupörssi in Finland,
Get Baltic in Lithuania, Polish Power Exchange (also for electricity) and Gaspoint
Nordic in Denmark, which is the most liquid in the region. In 2016, the traded
volume on Gaspoint Nordic corresponded to 68% of Danish consumption, com-
pared to 58% in 2015.
In order to deliver the competitive regional gas market, Finland, Estonia, Latvia and
Lithuania, have been actively working on a single regional gas market with a single
entry-exit zone. The preliminary goal is to have harmonised market rules and unified
entry-exit tariffs by 2020, in line with the commissioning dates of the new
infrastructure projects GIPL and Balticconnector as well as enhancements to
Estonia–Latvia and Latvia–Lithuania and Inčukalns UGS. The regional TSOs, NRAs
and related ministries have established working groups to work on the different
harmonisation topics of the regional market.
