ENTSOG Tariff NC - Implementation Document 2nd Edition

STANDARDISED SECTION ON TSO/NRA WEBSITE

ARTICLE 31(1)

Responsibility: publication by TSO/NRA, as NRA decides

Similar to a template for publishing information under the Transparency Guidelines, ENTSOG suggests publishing two sets of information per Article 29 and 30, before the annual yearly capacity auctions and before the tariff period, in a standardised format – in order to facilitate identifying the publication requirements and the respective cross-reference to Article, its paragraph and point as set out in the TAR NC. ENTSOG received stakeholder feedback that information per Article 29 and 30 must be provided in English. ENTSOG agrees with the stakeholder feedback and notes that in order for the publication to be most effective, it is important that such information is provided in English. Credible justification and reasoning will be need- ed to the extent this is not possible. It is suggested that such a template should include: (1) a column with the reference to the appropriate provision of the TAR NC; (2) a column with the description of such provision; (3) a column with the respective tariff information; and (4) a column for further information. As for the third column, the information can be placed either directly in the cell of the template or contain a link to another webpage. ENTSOG received feedback through ACER that it might be confusing having more than one link per information bit in the third column. If it is necessary to use more than one link per information bit, it should be explained either with a self-explanatory link in the third column, or by having an explanation in the fourth column ‘description’. Annex P provides the structure of the described template and gives an example for the two different possibilities for the links. The use of such template is recommended by ENTSOG to its members.
