ACER publishes today its report on Poland’s proposed gas transmission tariffs for the Transit Gas Pipeline System (TGPS). In its report, ACER provides recommendations to the Polish national regulatory authority, URE, in relation to the tariff methodology applicable for this transmission network.
What does ACER recommend?
ACER assessed the proposed methodology to calculate the gas tariffs for the TGPS and provided the following recommendations:
- Publish the input parameters used to calculate the tariffs for 2026. This information will help network users estimating the indicative tariffs for the year 2026.
- Price the capacity offered at the exit interconnection point to Germany as an interruptible product (i.e. the service can be interrupted under certain conditions).
- Assess the costs and benefits of a possible merger of the TGPS with the Polish national transmission network.
What are the next steps?
Following the end of the final consultation (15 November 2023), URE has five months to take and publish a motivated decision on the tariff methodology applied to TGPS, taking into consideration ACER’s recommendations.
