Journal Title: Krytyka Prawa. Niezależne studia nad prawem - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
The subject of this article is an analysis of the decision exempting the OPAL gas pipeline from the application of the Gas directive. For the purpose of better introduction of the subject of this article, first are described historical aspects in the context of the procedural issues associated with the decision. Nevertheless, the main part of the article deals with a detailed analysis of the selected criteria referred to in article of 36 Gas Directive. According to the aforementioned provision, significant new gas infrastructure, i.e. interconnections, LNG facilities and storage facilities, may be exempted for a definite period of time from the provisions of the Gas directive. Selected criteria from article 36 of the Gas directive are: (i) enhancement of competition in gas supply; (ii) the exemption must not be detrimental to competition or the effective functioning of the internal market in natural gas, or the efficient functioning of the regulated system to which the infrastructure is connected; (iii) enhancement of security of supply; and (iv) the level of risk attached to the investment must be such that the investment would not take place unless an exemption was granted. The analysis is made in the context of the previous decisions taken by the European Commission regarding exemption of the infrastructure from article 36 of gas directive.<br/><br/>
