ENTSOG First Report on Implementation Monitoring and Baseline for Effect Monitoring of the Tariff Network Code

TAR.3 focuses on the breakdown of capacity bookings for the two most recent gas years

The analysis performed here is to compare possible evolutions in the distribution of bookings between gas years 2014–15 and 2015–16. The point is not to underline the evolution of total booked capacities in absolute terms, but rather the different percentages corresponding to each type of capacity product. TSOs fill in data about booked capacity in GWh/d for each capacity product.

TAR.3 considers booking evolutions for CAM-relevant points only

The metric calculated is the sum of total entry and exit capacity bookings for each product and at each CAM-relevant point (the calculation is not about net entry/exit bookings). No consideration is made about non-CAM points, because only the comparison of points in the scope of both the CAMNC and the TAR NC ensures higher comparability.

4.3.4 TAR.4: PUBLICATION OF INFORMATION IN ENGLISH

Goal of TAR.4 (Publication in English)

Indicator TAR.4 aims to check if information to be published per the TARNC will be available in English, which is supposed to facilitate access to markets for all network users. It contributes to transparency and tariff comparability across Europe. Documents in English will enhance market integration by facilitating such access to information. Such topic is described in Chapter VII ‘Consultation requirements’ and Chapter VIII ‘Publication requirements’ of the TARNC, whose application dates were respectively on 6 April 2017 and 1 October 2017. The TARNC states that information should be published ‘to the extent possible’ in English regarding the periodic consultation, the annual yearly capacity auction and the tariff period.

Assumption for TAR.4 (Publication in English)

TAR.4 refers to information for the periodic consultation, the annual yearly capacity auction and the tariff period. 5 sub-indicators are assessed to check if information is published in English: \\ Information for the periodic consultation, \\ Information on the responses to the periodic consultation, \\ Information for the consultation on some discounts, multipliers and seasonal factors,

\\ Information for the yearly capacity auction, and \\ Information for the tariff period consultation.

TAR.4 only covers Art. 26, 28, 29 and 30. As an exception for the present EM report, TAR.4 will cover what is intended to be published.
