  5. Exit–zone DK Entry Entry Transit Exit Transit Exit Transit Exit Entry Entry-Exit and One-zone model

  6. Entry-Exit and One-zone model • Three entry/-transit exit points • One exit zone for DK • Capacity booking from 1 Day to Multiple Years • Hourly capacity tariff + commodity tariff • Daily balancing – national level • Balance Price - Zeebrügge based • One virtual storage entry/exit point

  7. The Gastra "Tool Box" "Tools" supplementing the transport conditions: • Capacity booking (with 1½ day notice) • Gas Transfer Facility (within the day trading) • Capacity Transfer Facility (with 1½ day notice) • Balance margin Transfer Facility (with 1½ day notice) • Electronic Bulletin Board

  8. Security of Supply • Gastra is responsible for Security Of Supply – which at present includes : • Securing gas supply for all firm consumers for a 60 days period and supply capacity in very cold periods • Provided by storage agreements and transportation capacity from the North Sea • Paid via a separate SOS-tariff • The concept for SOS is under evaluation – taking the consequences of the market liberalization into account.

  12. Gas Market 2004 • Joint project between transmission and distribution companies • Organization • Steering Committee • Market Model Group • Reconciliation Group • EDI Group • Advisory Group – dialogue with the authorities • Main Challenges • Roles and communication • Who is billing who? And for what? • Reconciliation • Gastra facilitated process

  13. Status on the market liberalisation • 20% of the market volume have changed gas supplier • Primarily larger industries and power plants have changed supplier – and very few residential consumers • Basically the market model and the it-systems have worked very well • Initially, data quality and speed of data exchange was problematic - but has been improved significantly • Systematic data correction schemes and on line "traffic light" information has been introduced

  14. April 2003 April 2003 March 2004 19 EU gas transmission companies EU "Third benchmarking report" on implementation of the internal gas market

  15. Possible further developments … • Gastra tool-box expansions … lower response times • Standardising and automation of procedures and processes … especially improving data quality and speed • Improving interoperability (Germany and Sweden) • Improving competition by attracting and assist new market players to enter the Danish market • Continue the dialogue with the market players and authorities

  16. Experiences from Denmark The Danish Case is more simple than in many other European countries – smaller market, fewer companies etc – but some experiences may be offered : • Establishing a strong and committing cooperation amongst the infrastructure companies • Look for simplification rather than perfection – and especially regarding : • Market model • Profiling • Reconciliation • Information to and dialogue with market players, authorities and infrastructure companies • … and acknowledge that often the devil is in the detail
