3.3.2 PEAK DEMAND
The peak demand represents one of the most stressful situations to be faced by the
gas infrastructure (1-in-20 year situation for Iberian Peninsula and 1-in-50 year sit-
uation for France). It corresponds to the maximum level of gas demand used for the
design of the network in each country to capture maximum transported energy and
ensure consistency with national regulatory frameworks.
For the South Region, the EU Green Revolution and Green Evolution are the same.
The Blue Transition is the scenario with more gas demand and in opposite the Slow
Progression scenario with less gas demand.
