3) For market area NCG: On 24 March 2016, the trading platform operator PEGAS introduced temporal, locational and temporal locational STSPs. The temporal STSPs are realised within one hour of the gasday with a lead-time of three hours. The locational STSPs are realised on a within-day and day-ahead basis with a lead-time of three hours and delivery/offtake within a specified network zone. The temporal locational STSPs are realised within one hour of the gas day with a lead-time of 3 hours and delivery/offtake at specified network points at the Dutch/German border (IPs "Elten/Zevenaar" and "Vreden/Winterswijk"). The Dutch TSO was informed about the plans to introduce new STSPs and a meeting between NCG and the Dutch TSO was held on 23 October 2014 to discuss the parameters of the relevant STSPs. 4) WD temporal: Product with delivery/offtake period of one hour.
