System Operators (TSOs) GAS CONNECT AUSTRIA GmbH (GCA) and Trans Austria Gasleitungs GmbH (TAG) is launching a formal public consultation on the Coordinated Network Development Plan (CNDP) 2016 -2025.
The MAM and the TSOs have already received valuable feedback from market participants in the course of the Stakeholder Joint Working Session on 01 July 2015. As a follow-up, a written consultation on the CNDP 2016 -2025 should give further insight on the expectations for the planning instrument.
The MAM, together with the Austrian TSOs, has endeavored to take into account each and every comment received and encourages stakeholders to stay actively involved throughout the process of the CNDP. Through the response to this public consultation, market participants will contribute to a continuous development of the Austrian CNDP.
The written consultation will be from 06 July 2015 to 20 July 2015. Responses should be submitted by email to the following mail box: marktgebietsmanager@gasconnect.at
This public consultation should not only be taken as a regulatory obligation by the MAM together with the TSOs, but as a necessary step for the continuous evolution of the CNDP, aiming at the fulfillment of market participants ’ expectations.
