ENTSOG and ENTSO-E publish Artelys study on gas-electricity interlinkages

The objective of the study Artelys has carried out was to provide recommendations to the ENTSOs on the way to account for interlinkages between gas and electricity during the project assessment phase. The study has focused on the identification of relevant projects for which a joint gas-electricity assessment is recommended. The proposed screening methodology aims at identifying the relevant projects for which the interactions between the gas and electricity systems have a sizable impact on their economic assessment. After a thorough analysis of the interlinkages between the gas and electricity sectors, and a discussion of the role of the scenario building phase, three key sources of interlinkages have been identified and studied: gas-to-power, power-to-gas and hybrid consumption technologies (e.g. hybrid heat pumps). The screening methodology includes criteria related to each of these interlinkages.
