(PART 3/3) ... Given that the future hydrogen network will share the same intrinsic characteristics to the natural gas system, FSR suggest that the starting point for the future hydrogen market would be to parallel these rules. As mentioned above, it is important that effective competition for low and zero-carbon hydrogen develops effectively from the beginning.

(PART 2/3) .... The Internal Energy Market in its current form has proven to deliver effective energy prices as well as driving innovation and security of supply. Wherever possible, the Internal Energy Market should be used to drive energy sector integration in a technology-neutral and cost- effective manner that will benefit citizens and ensure affordable energy.

(PART 1/3) The Florence School of Regulation (FSR) welcomes the European Commission’s (EC) initiative to begin mapping the development of future gas regulation and widely supports the direction of this Roadmap/ Inception Impact Assessment (IIA) in achieving that. FSR is a center of excellence for independent research and knowledge exchange with the purpose of improving the quality of European regulation and policy.

Deutsche Umwelthilfe / Environmental Action Germany welcomes the opportunity to comment on the initiative at this stage. This legislation is essential in leveling the playing field between natural gas, hydrogen, other gases and renewable electricity. Natural gas currently enjoys significant regulatory advantages. While green hydrogen, renewable electricity etc.

Deutsche Umwelthilfe / Environmental Action Germany (DUH) welcomes the opportunity to consult on the gas market directive and regulation. In general, we are not pleased with the roles that low-carbon gases and green hydrogen are given with this reform. The broad allocation of hydrogen across many sectors is critical.

Florence School of Regulation (FSR) welcomes the European Commission initiative for a legislative act to address the issue of methane emissions in energy sector. FSR is a center of excellence for independent discussion and knowledge exchange with the purpose of improving the quality of European regulation and policy. It is actively involved in the research related to methane emissions in energy sector.

Deutsche Umwelthilfe / Environmental Action Germany welcomes the opportunity to comment on the initiative at this stage. Regulating methane emissions in the oil, gas and coal sectors is indeed a powerful tool and necessary in mitigating GHG emissions and meeting climate targets.

Environmental Action Germany (DUH e.V.) welcomes the Methane Regulation proposal as it will for the first time impose binding rules regarding methane leakage on operators of energy infrastructure within the EU. Particularly positive are the new provisions on Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) of methane emissions, regular inspections by regulatory agencies, as well as the requirement of quarterly Leak…
