Gas Framework Guidelines Interoperability Workshop
Tuesday, 13 September 2011
ACER, Trg Republike 3, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia

Dear Sir/Madam,
The Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) invites all interested parties to attend a Workshop at which the Scoping Document for the Framework Guidelines on Interoperability Rules for European Gas Transmission Networks will be presented and stakeholders’ views on it will be collected.

The Framework Guidelines on Interoperability Rules for European Gas Transmission Networks aim at improving the inter-operation of the gas systems in the EU. The Scoping Document to be discussed in the Workshop defines the possible building blocks for these Framework Guidelines. These Framework Guidelines pursuant to Article 8 (6) (e) may cover or be interlinked with areas pursuant to Article 8 (6), (d), (f), (g) and (j) of Regulation (EC) No. 715/2009. An Annex to the Scoping Document is also published and contains a set of questions that stakeholders may answer by e-mail (workshop2011E04@acer.europa.eu), preferably before the workshop, to help streamline the discussions. Answers after the workshop will be also accepted, but not later than 19 September 2011.
The Workshop will take place in Ljubljana on 13 September 2011.
 
Best regards,
Alberto Pototschnig
ACER Director
