EU gas markets standardisation – energy transition shortcut or obstacle? | Nicolas Peugniez GRTgaz
Is EU gas markets standardization a shortcut to energy transition or an obstacle?
Listen to Ilaria Conti (FSR) and Nicolas Peugniez (GRTgaz) reflect on the status of implementation of #gasNetworkCodes and the way ahead towards #decarbonisation

FutureGas project | Tara Sabbagh Amirkhizi
FutureGas project looks into the ways the gas sector could be integrated in the Danish energy system and contribute to clean energy transition e.g. through the injection of green gas. The researchers from Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and key stakeholders of the Danish gas industry have been working with 18 international partners (including Florence School of Regulation) to pursue the research on the potential opportunities across the gas value chain. Moreover, the project looks into different national experiences with renewable gas injection and the support systems. This four-year project (2016-2020) is funded by Innovation Fund Denmark.
In this podcast, Maria Olczak (FSR) interviews Tara Sabbagh Amirkhizi (DTU) to give you some insights from the project. In the first part, the key information regarding the scope, objectives and the work packages of the project are provided. Then, we discuss how this project fits into the changing policy landscape in Denmark with the adoption of a new 55% renewables target. Tara will also shed some light on the preliminary results of the project. You can find more information, reports and presentations on the project webpage:

Power to Gas from a gas TSO’s perspective | Christophe Poillion
On the sideline of the FSR Policy Advisory Council meeting on the 5th and 6th of November 2018, Christophe Poillion (Vice President of European Affairs, GRT Gaz) and Tara Amirkhizi (Visiting PhD student, FSR) discuss the power to gas technology and the experience the French gas TSO has had with it so far.
In an energy grid that perceives power and gas as a whole, Christophe describes power to gas as a conversion technology that can allow the already established gas grid to offer capacity and flexibility to the full energy system. Besides the grid services, power to gas is also a carbon capturing technology. Using the hydrogen from P2G, CO2 is converted to Syngas and be used in the gas grid.
Pilot projects, such as the French project Jupiter 1000, are an approach for European TSOs to gain the technological expertise for the operation of power to gas facilities. These projects enable this technology to reach a certain maturity level, in order to be competitive. Besides the technology maturity, a well-functioning CO2 market and regulatory frameworks are also crucial in order to make the power to gas technology market ready.

The Projects of Common Interest | Adina Crisan-Revol (DG ENER)
In this podcast, Maria Olczak (FSR) interviews Adina Crisan-Revol (Team Leader at DG ENER, UNIT B1) to discuss the Projects of Common Interests (PCI). Mrs Crisan-Revol explains what the PCI is, and the benefits it brings to the EU energy market and EU consumers.
Since 2013, the PCI list is updated every 2 years. The third list has been proposed by the European Commission in November 2017 and has been already adopted by the Council and the European Parliament. Mrs Crisan-Revol addresses the key changes recently introduced by the European Commission in order to ensure that the third PCI list better aligned with the EU longer-term targets.
Recorded at the Specialised Training on the Regulation of Gas Markets in Florence, 21 March 2018.
