We have published a section 23 notice of modification to Part F of Special Condition 5G of National Grid Gas plc’s (National Transmission System)(NGG(NTS)) gas transporter licence. The modification would add three new exit points to its gas transporter licence: “Palm Paper”, “Kinneil CHP” and “St Fergus Segal”.
The EU Gas Regulation requires us to decide whether any new exit points should be classified as ‘relevant points’. For relevant points, National Grid is required to make information about capacity available to the public. We agree with NGG(NTS)’s proposal that the new exit point “St Fergus Segal” should be classified as a relevant exit point. We also agree that “Palm Paper” and “Kinneil CHP” should not be classified as relevant exit points and should be listed as Industrial and Power Station offtakes respectively.
