SGT balancing

A scale that keeps the balance between plus and minus
System balancing is an economic activity performed by GAZ-SYSTEM as part of its transmission services consisting in balancing the demand for gaseous fuels and the supply of these fuels.

We distinguish between physical and commercial balancing:
  • Physical balancing is the activity of the Transit Gas Pipeline System Operator (TGPSO) undertaken to balance the quantities of gaseous fuel delivered to and offtaken from the SGT.
  • Commercial balancing is the activity of TGPSO (Transit Gas Pipeline System Operator) consisting in establishing and settling the imbalance of Shipper.
On 16 April 2014, Commission Regulation (EU) No 312/2014 of 26 March 2014 came into force (NC BAL - Network Code on Gas Balancing of Transmission Networks) establishing the network code on gas balancing in transmission networks. The regulation provides guidance on transmission system balancing rules, including network rules for nomination procedures, imbalance charges, settlement procedures related to the daily imbalance charge, and operational balancing between TSOs’ networks.
