New routes for natural gas deliveries to Ukraine will be available starting on 22 December.
The national energy regulatory authorities of Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova and Ukraine have approved the new capacity products Route 2 and Route 3, strengthening regional connectivity and security of supply. Developed with ICGB as a key driver, the routes enable deliveries from diversified sources using existing infrastructure - LNG via the Alexandroupolis FSRU and pipeline gas via the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), with the IGB interconnector playing a central role along the south-north corridor.
From 22 December, Routes 1, 2 and 3 will be offered on the Regional Booking Platform (RBP), with ICGB applying a 46% discount on its standard monthly tariff to support utilization.
“Routes 2 and 3 are the result of coordinated management and technical work in close cooperation with operators from the countries along the Vertical Gas Corridor axis and the European Commission. ICGB has played a leading role in shaping and introducing the new products with a clear objective: to provide flexible, reliable and diversified access to gas for the region and, in particular, to support Ukraine during a critical period,” said ICGB Executive Officers George Satlas and Teodora Georgieva.
