2015: A Year of Changes
Vittorio Musazzi
General Manager, ENTSOG
from 2010 to 2015
2015 was the sixth and final year of ENTSOG
under Vittorio Musazzi’s management.
Vittorio proved to be a very active and safe
captain in the steering of the ENTSOG ship.
In the first couple of years, he set the course of the ship putting in place
not only the necessary infrastructure and administration including all
office-related topics but also the way of working and the statutes of the
association. He also successfully provided guidance in the development
of all gas network codes, TYNDP and the Transparency Platform. At the
same time he made sure ENTSOG operated in a very efficient manner.
Vittorio deserves a lot of credit for doing all that with a safe hand on the
wheel.
In 2015, ENTSOG saw more significant changes in its management. All
Business Area Managers changed, including Jan Ingwersen who was
later appointed the new General Manager. Also, the rotation at adviser
level (eight advisers having been replaced due to the secondment prin-
ciple) made it a year of changes.
Although, due to the secondment principle, the association changes its
team every third year on average, the secondment is one of ENTSOG’s
strengths. Most of the Brussels team members come from a member
TSO.
Seconded colleagues stay in contact with their company while maintain-
ing their TSO perspective. Thus, they remain loyal to both ENTSOG and
their home TSO. This creates a dynamic ENTSOG organisation that is
able to balance business interests vis-à-vis regulatory interests.
