We have been approached by the interconnector BBL Company V.O.F. (BBLC) who have recently undertaken an investment to facilitate physical reverse flow of gas from Great Britain (GB) (Bacton) to the Netherlands (Balgzand).
The current arrangements in National Grid Gas Plc (NGG) Gas Trasporter Licence Special Conditions stipulate that the Licence Baseline Exit Capacity for the Bacton (BBL) Aggregated System Entry Point (ASEP) is set at 0 GWh/d. As such, BBLC considers that it does not have equal and transparent access to the existing available NGG exit capacity at Bacton.
This Call for Evidence (CfE) is to seek views regarding whether or not existing arrangements on exit at Bacton should be changed to allow Shipper Users to access Licence Baseline Exit Capacity at both Interconnection Points (IP) at Bacton: Bacton (IUK) and Bacton (BBL).
We welcome responses and evidence (where possible) to the questions in Annex 1 or any other relevant data, including responses where there is no interest in using exit capacity at Bacton (BBL), by the end of Monday, 16 September 2019.
