Study on Entry-Exit Regimes in Gas. Part A: Implementation of Entry-Exit Systems
This study has analysed the implementation of entry-exit systems for natural gas in the Member States of the European Union. The focus of the assessment was to identify which choices in the design of the entry-exit system may already have lead or may still lead to barriers for the entrance of new market players and barriers for cross-border trade. Secondly the study assessed the potential for market area integration on the basis of a cost benefit analysis for three different combinations of market areas.
