Today, our Policy Advisor Tobias Bühnen took the floor at the European Parliament to present the role of gas infrastructure in uniting energies for Europe. Gas infrastructure in a nutshell: ✅ Operates a well-connected, highly flexible critical energy infrastructure. ✅ Provides consumers and companies with access to affordable energy. ✅ Advancing Europe's energy transition to an integrated energy system. ✅ Ensuring industrial #competitiveness. Key figures: 🔹EU storages can hold 4 months of EU gas demand. 🔹29 #LNG terminals imported a third of EU gas demand in 2023. 🔹260,000 km of pipelines enable gas supply to 100 million households and thousands of companies. Putting these valuable assets to use during the energy crisis enabled Europe to: 🔶 Rapidly diversify gas imports via LNG terminals. 🔶 Secure sufficient energy by filling underground storages. 🔶 Adapt gas flows from West to East. 🔶 Bringing energy costs down and ensuring industrial competitiveness. We unite energies ➡ https://lnkd.in/ees35wbV Congratulations to Mihael Mihov for the sharp chairmanship and to the other experts joining us on stage, and a warm thank you to the European Energy Forum team for the flawless organisation.

GIE reposted this
❗️The #EEF_Briefing on #gasmolecules was a unique learning opportunity! Speakers from many of the EEF Associate Members went back to the basics of #naturalgas, #biogas, #biomethane and #hydrogen, explaining the technical characteristics and underlining the developments throughout time. The #endusers’ perspective was also presented by the chemical and fertilizers industries that use gas molecules as a feedstock in their production processes. We also had a session focusing on the gas #infrastructure, where we listened to experts explaining the characteristics and mapping of #transmissionpipelines, #storagefacilities and #LNGterminals in Europe. Some Italian and French projects were presented. Thanks to all speakers for such an enriching discussion and to Mihael Mihov, Adviser to our EEF President for chairing this briefing on energy. We look forward to the next one! #EEF_Briefing #backtobasics #gasmolecules #naturalgas #biogas #biomethane #hydrogen #endusers #gasinfrastructure
