The GWG organizes its work into three task forces:
TF1: Gas Infrastructure
TF2: Compliance Monitoring
TF3: Cross-border tariffication
The Work Programme of ECRB Gas Working Group (GWG) in 2010 will focus on the main objectives for the gas market in the Energy Community of the Group, namely to facilitating and supporting the development of gas infrastructure interconnecting national markets (“Gas Ring”). By this, the mission of the GWG is to ensuring that a singe regulatory framework is applied throughout the Energy Community in a way that enables efficient cross border trade and compatibility of national rules, and thereby reducing regulatory risks for investment.
As a follow up of the 2009 work, the main focus of GWG work will be on regulatory measures supporting and promoting the realization of the Gas Ring. As background for this activity, the GWG will analyse the level of compliance with legal requirements as upgrade to the monitoring activities of the Energy Community Secretariat from a practical point of view and with the scope to ensuring harmonised market models for cross border flows.
