☀️On 29 May, ENTSO-E and ENTSOG hosted a webinar, sharing the latest results of their recent Seasonal Outlooks, providing a joint view on #electricity and #gas system adequacy for summer 2026.   👩🏫The Seasonal Outlooks serve as an evidence-based input to market participants and authorities, identifying potential risks to system adequacy under different scenarios. Overall: 📌Gas #infrastructure remains capable of supporting summer injections and meeting winter demand, provided sufficient supplies are available. 📌Sufficient #LNG availability and early storage injections are important for achieving storage target level and strengthening winter preparedness. 📌Different #supply and #demand scenarios underline the importance of coordinated maintenance #planning and operational #flexibility across Europe. #Stakeholder could also ask questions directly to the co-authors about both the results and the assumptions (supply, storage, demand) used in the reports.   👉The full presentation is available at: https://lnkd.in/eNp_iQfr

🗣️ At the 41st meeting of the European Electricity Regulatory Forum in Florence, ENTSOG, Piotr Kus gave input on energy system flexibility and the roles of molecules in an integrated energy system. Piotr also added input on governance in the energy sector. 💡The #FlorenceForum, continues to provide an excellent platform for regulators, institutions, and stakeholders to exchange views on the evolution of Europe’s electricity market with an increasing focus on cross-sector coordination. ⚙️ENTSOG highlighted the importance of #systemintegration. The strong interconnection between #gas and #electricity systems enable flexibility across sectors, supports system optimisation, and facilitates the integration of #renewable and #lowcarbon gases in the overall energy system. ⚡🔥Ongoing participation in cross-sector energy forums will further contribute to the development of an integrated European energy system.

🙌ENTSOG, Piotr Kus, Kacper Żeromski and George Wüstner, participated at the 12th #EnergyInfrastructure Forum in #Copenhagen! Organised by the European Commission in cooperation with the The Ministry of Climate, Energy and Utilities, the Forum contributed to ongoing discussions on the #EUGridsPackage and the development of #integrated #energynetworks. 🗣️Exchanges addressed #feasibility, #security and stakeholder engagement in support of an integrated energy system, with particular emphasis on #repurposing existing infrastructure and advancing #integration across energy vectors. 💧In Session 2 “From Risk to Resilience: aligning policy, finance and industry to scale hydrogen”, alongside ARERA - Autorità di Regolazione per Energia Reti e Ambiente and EU Energy, ENTSOG and ENNOH presented their joint report. Discussions explored how the current European and national toolbox can support early market development, including cross-border infrastructure investments. 🖇️The presentation is available here: https://lnkd.in/e8weSJis

Pierre Duvieusart, ENTSOG, took part in the Hydrogen Milestone Ceremony hosted by Gasunie in Rotterdam, marking the completion of the first section of the Dutch hydrogen network. 🤝In presence of His Majesty King Willem-Alexander, Minister Stientje van Veldhoven, and industry leaders. The programme featured contributions from Gasunie, Port of Rotterdam, Shell and OGE, highlighting developments in #decarbonisation, #securityofsupply and #crossborder #cooperation. 🔥These developments were also central to discussions during the Flame-conference panel, “How are Europe & the UK ensuring the right networks for the future?”, moderated by Erik Rakhou (Rakhou Associates), with contributions from Lucie Boost (GIE), Angus Paxton (National Energy System Operator) and Maria-Cristina Zaharia (Gas Distributors for Sustainability (GD4S).🔥 🧩The discussion underscored the importance of robust #grid #planning to assess infrastructure adequacy across all time horizons and the need for projects that demonstrate a future-proof network, while ensuring that infrastructure adaptation remains cost-efficient and balanced, supporting both the #energytransition and the continued reliability of supply. #FLAME2026

📢ENTSOG and ENNOH have published a joint report on de-risking options for EU hydrogen infrastructure! Responding to a request from the 11th #EnergyInfrastructure Forum in Copenhagen (CEIF), the report analyses #derisking approaches for #hydrogen #infrastructure investment, addressing key financing challenges faced by project promoters. 🔎The analysis highlights a structural investment gap in the early-stage hydrogen #market, driven by #volume, #price and #cross-border #risks, as well as limited demand visibility, showing that existing tools and national approaches alone are not sufficient. 📌Building on stakeholder engagement, including a joint workshop on 4 March 2026 and a public consultation, the report outlines two EU-level options to support investment, focusing on mechanisms to de-Risk H2 infrastructure projects and to support ramp-up tariffs. 📰Press Release available: https://lnkd.in/ekszMNJG 👉Read the report on our ENTSOG website: https://lnkd.in/eQDXhc-V

🔥Piotr Kus, ENTSOG, joined discussions on EU energy security infrastructure, storage and regulation taking place at Flame-conference!🔥   🗣️Moderated by Torben Brabo and joined by Alfred Skår Hansen (Gassco AS), Agneta Kutselim (Ukrtransgaz) and Marcel Steinbach (SEFE Securing Energy for Europe GmbH), exchanges focused on ways the #EU can strengthen security of supply while adapting infrastructure to evolving demand, the role of storage in balancing seasonal and geopolitical risks, and the regulatory framework needed to support investment and maintain flexibility during the energy transition.   📌In his remarks, Piotr emphasised the continued role of #infrastructure operators in ensuring #securityofsupply, and the importance of #cooperation between Member States and TSOs to enhance system #resilience. 🧩He also underlined the need to scale up renewable gases such as #biomethane, as highlighted in ENTSOG’s report on renewable gas injections into gas networks https://lnkd.in/eQDXhc-V #FLAME2026

📢On 29 May 2026, join ENTSOG and ENTSO-E to explore the results of the latest assessments of #gas and #electricity system adequacy in Europe for the summer 2026. Seasonal Outlook reports published by ENTSOG and ENTSO-E are used to inform market participants and authorities on possible risks to system adequacy for the upcoming season. The webinar will present the main findings and offer the opportunity to engage directly with experts. 📅 Date: 29 May 2026, 14:00 – 15:00 CEST 📍Location: Online 🔗 Register here: https://lnkd.in/e-Uc-dmM

🗣️At the 2nd edition of the Budapest Biogas Summit, Piotr Kus, ENTSOG, presented the latest insights on biomethane injection and system integration.   🟢Drawing on ENTSOG analysis, #biomethane is increasingly contributing to #decarbonisation, while building on existing #infrastructure and supporting system #flexibility.   📌Recent data shows that biomethane #injections are rising across most EU Member States, supported by new production capacity and connection to #gasgrids. 📌At the same time, injection levels remain below the 2030 #REPowerEU target, with regional disparities persisting. 📌The integration of biomethane into system planning (e.g. #TYNDP) highlights growing volumes and increasing focus on infrastructure optimisation, such as #repurposing existing assets.   These discussions underline the importance of coordinated network planning, transparency of injections, and continued cooperation between #TSOs, #DSOs and competent authorities.   👉Read ENTSOG’s annual report on renewable gas injection in gas grids report here: https://lnkd.in/eqpMRu8b
