Natural gas transmission system operator companies SNTGN Transgaz SA, FGSZ Zrt. and Gas Connect Austria GmbH consider to jointly conduct a binding open season for the booking of new or incremental cross-border transmission capacity at the Romanian-Hungarian border and the Hungarian-Austrian border, in both flow directions. The preparatory process is supported by the respective national regulatory authorities, i.e. ANRE (Romania), HEA (Hungary) and E-Control (Austria).

SNTGN TRANSGAZ SA notifies all parties concerned that during the CEF – Energy Coordination Committee meeting held on 19.01.2016, the EU Member States approved the European Commission’s proposal to grant Euro 217 million to 15 key projects for trans-European energy infrastructures, most of them in Eastern and Central Europe, out of which 9 projects in the gas sector, following an extensive procedure for the selection of the submitted projects.
