Public Consultation on the methodology for implementation monitoring and evaluation of the impact of the gas Network Codes and Guidelines on the internal gas market
PC_2015_G_04
From 12 June 2015 to 10 July 2015 the Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (‘ACER’, ‘the Agency’) is running a public consultation on the methodology for implementation monitoring and evaluation of the impact of the gas Network Codes and Guidelines on the internal gas market.
Article 9 of Regulation (EC) No 715/2009 lays down rules for the Agency to monitor and analyse the implementation of the Network Codes and the Guidelines adopted by the European Commission. Under the article the Agency is responsible for assessing the effects of the codes in facilitating market integration, as well as on non-discrimination, effective competition and the efficient functioning of the market.
Based on Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 713/2009 the Agency presents for public consultation the consultancy study from Cambridge Economic Policy Associates, commissioned by the Agency, which proposes a methodology to be used for implementation monitoring and evaluation of the impact of the gas Network Codes and Guidelines on the internal gas market
