LNG facilities and infrastructure ending isolation of MSs
Discounts may also apply to LNG entry points to increase security of supply. The
TAR NC is silent as to the appropriate level of such discounts.
Discounts may also apply to entry-points-from/exit-points-to infrastructure ending
the isolation of MSs, if such discounts increase security of supply. The TAR NC is
similarly silent as to the appropriate level of such discounts. Such discounts would
enable MSs to avoid a situation where they would be fully dependent on one existing
infrastructure or supply source. For example, such discounts may be applied to the
entry tariff at a new IP connecting the ‘isolated’ country to a second source.
Therefore, increasing security of supply justifies such discounts.
