Prior to this workshop, CEER investigated how LNG could contribute to enhance the security of gas supply in Europe. The work was undertaken in the framework of the Winter Package which included the revision of regulation 994/2010 on security of supply and the Communication on an EU strategy for LNG and storage.
The workshop took place on 12 September in Athens. The goal of this workshop was as follows: whilst the role of LNG linked to EU gas security of supply had been subject to investigations, the question of the way to maximise benefits from pipeline versus LNG competition had not been yet analysed. With the objective to make LNG accessible for all European users, CEER intended to identify potential barriers to the use of LNG and to the access to LNG terminals in the EU. CEER also focussed on ensuring that LNG, once injected into the grid, can be delivered where it is needed.
