SEN consultation

• Central role of gas in the decarbonisation process and to improve air quality

• Methanisation of Sardinia

• Further regasification capacity to increase security of supply and gas-to-gas competition

• Gas demand 39,4 bcm in 1H 2017, up 9,6% vs 1H 2016

• Thermoelectric sector up 21,2% thanks to

lower import and lower hydroelectric.

• Industrial sector up 7,3%, thanks to the

progressive recovery of the industrial production

(+2% yoy), driven by steel, mechanical, paper,

glass & ceramics

ENVIROMENT

SECURITY

Impact on gas system

• Protection of energy-intensive sectors• Cost reduction thanks to efficiency and new

technologies• Cut of the cost spread between PSV and TTF

• New targets to 2030 aligned with EU • Phase-out from coal: growing renewables and

gas

• Peaks management• Diversification of routes to increase the security

of supply• Possibility to revert the flows to cope with

solidarity measures towards other European countries

• Biomethane and gas vehicles development• Methanization of Sardinia• Gas pumps

• Increase security of supply• Improve the flexibility of the system

• New sources to increase gas price competition• New LNG regasification capacity to exploit the

expected overcapacity• Liquidity corridor
