39 Reform of third parties access to natural gas storage Adopted on 19 th December 2017 / implementation on 1 st April 2018 «Loi mettant fin à la recherche ainsi qu à l exploitation des hydrocarbures et portant diverses dispositions relatives à l énergie et à l environnement» Natural gas infrastructures contribute to transmission network balancing, continuity of delivery on the transmission network, gas system optimization and to country s security of supply The tariffs for use of the transmission network [ ] are established [ ] to cover all the costs borne by [ ] the operators of the storage facilities Transmission network operators shall return to the underground storage of natural gas operators [ ] part of the amount recovered in accordance with the procedures established by the Energy Regulatory Commission When incomes of a storage operator are greater than its costs, the income surplus is transferred to transmission network operators by this storage operator Use tariffs of natural gas transmission networks may contain a fix part, a part proportional to subscribed capacity and a part proportional to the difference between firm capacity subscribed in winter and average yearly use of this capacity 39

42 Contents Reform of third parties access to natural gas storage Agenda Basis of compensation collection Practical aspects 42

43 Basis of compensation collection Points supported by GRTgaz The basis of compensation collection : Must be as transparent as possible, that is every stakeholders (supplier and consumer) can recalculate. So it needs to be based on data known by all these stakeholders Must translate the consumer s modulation need The distribution between suppliers must follow the evolution of every supplier portfolio Needs to pursue a relative continuity with current system With these principles in mind, GRTgaz suggests that the compensation collection is based on the difference between : Daily delivery capacity Average of daily consumption (CAR/365) Must be feasable given the short notice : rules mustn t be too complex (especially with DSOs interface) 43

44 Basis of compensation collection Methods of collection The methods studied by the CRE in its Public Consultation are : Formula for each customer Profiled With subscription Method 1 «Peak P2» A. zi. CAR 110%. CAR 365 A. zi. CAR 110%. CAR 365 TSO proposal Method 2 «Subscribed capacity annual average of daily capacity» Must be as transparent as possible, that is every stakeholders (supplier and consummer) can recalculate. So it needs to be based on data known by all these stakeholders max A. zi. CAR CAR 365 CJA CAR 365 ; 0 Method 2 better accounts for customers with subscription and seasonal consumers. Still, counter-modulated customers need to be excluded prior to computation «Declared loadable» consumers would be excluded for this transitory phase. «Interruptibility» to be accounted for eventually when effective In any case, billing of this collection term depends on reliable data transmission from DSOs A back-up method needs to be determined in case data is missing or late GRTgaz suggests to use subscribed firm capacity alone 44

45 Contents Reform of third parties access to natural gas storage Agenda Basis of compensation collection Practical aspects 45

46 Practical aspects Computation of downstream data The computation of the DSO rich data is a hurdle to a smooth and reliable calculation process in the Transitory phase. In order to make this process operable, GRTgaz suggests that the basis of compensation be calculated upon suppliers portfolios on 1 st day of each month, with 2 results : The supplier of each consumer at this date The value of daily delivery capacities and average of daily consumptions (CAR/365) 46

47 Practical aspects Amendment of GRTgaz transmission Contract Compensation collection process and principles will be included in the Transmission Contract version dated April 1st : Billing of this compensation will be made separetly : - some days after the monthly transmission invoice (around 20 M+1 in the transitory phase) - with the same rules regarding payment deadline (D+10) The amount of the contract Payment Guarantee is usually equal to sum of the 2 greatest invoices in the past 12 months. As of 2018 the recalculation will take into account the monthly compensation amount : - Partially in the May recalculation (Only the compensation for the month of April 2018 will be accounted for) - Wholly for the second yearly recalculation in October 47

56 NGV accelerates in France Strong dynamic on heavy duty vehicles and more refuelling stations NGV vehicles (+10%) including lorries (+100%) tonnes of CO 2 avoided by substitution to diesel Good points for NGV and biongv - NGV access to zones with limited circulation, stamp Crit Air #1 - pluriannual favourable step on taxes: TICPE frozen, prolongation on reinforced amortisation - larger NGV offer in France : heavy vehicles, light truck and cars En service En Projet 75 refuelling points for NGV open at the end of 2017 (+25%) 78 new points announced for

57 NGV development in France More and more large cities are choosing NGV for their public transportation - Grenoble, Nantes, Lille, Bordeaux, Paris, NGV vehicles are fuelled by compressed gas (CNG) or by liquefied gas (LNG). More and more ships are to be fuelled with LNG. More and more entrepreneurs are choosing biongv vehicles for their logistic activities - MacDonald, La Poste, Carrefour, Ikea, 57

58 Even more of CO 2 avoided by fuel-oil to gas conversions ~ 4,3 TWh of gas consumption due to new conversions of industrial customers from fuel-oil to gas achieved in significant reduction of CO 2 emissions - Significant reduction of NO x (-70%) and SO 2 (-80%) and practically no dust The effect of all these conversions achieved since 2012 leads to 1,8 Mt of CO 2 avoided in 2017, i.e. an equivalent contribution ~ windmills of 2 MW in the French electric mix Mt of CO 2 avoided 2 1,5 1 1,8 Mt CO 2 avoided in , Avoided CO 2 emissions: effect of achieved conversions since

63 A 100% renewable gas mix in 2050 in France? A study performed by Ademe, GRDF and GRTgaz Shippers Meeting - February 13 th, 2018

64 Context and objectives Context : - Strengthening of the climate objectives - A need to accelerate the energy transition - ADEME, the French environment and energy management agency, published in 2015 a feasibility study of a 100% renewable electricity mix in 2050 Objectives : testing the technical and economic limits of a 100% renewable gas mix in France in With what types of renewable gas? - With which impact on the gas networks? - At which cost? - In order to contribute to the energy debate and policy making -de-presse/detail-actus/article/un-mix-degaz-100-renouvelable-en-2050.html This study was issued on January 30 th 2018 : - performed by Solagro* and AEC** ; 18 month work - focused on France (no export/import considered) and on network gas - does not consist of an global multi-energy optimization, and does not provide a trajectory to 2050 * associative company expert in energy, agroecology and food transitions ** cooperative society focused on management of local energy utilities 64

65 The study s different stages Study of the various renewable gas potentials : - Methanisation - Gasification - Power-to-gas (with and without methanation : Power-to-H2 and Power-to-CH4) Essential principle : sustainability - No competition with food (even though dedicated main crops are authorized in France up to 15% of yearly tonnage) - No competition with wood as a raw material (current and prospective uses) - Increase in carbon stock in the ecosystems ; increase in soil s biologic life (a share of biomass has to remain in the field) Four scenarios with one starting point : ADEME prospective scenarios for % renewable - 100% renewable with more gasification - 100% renewable with limits on biomass - 75% renewable 65

66 A potential for 460 TWh renewable gas * * Potential associated with a main liquid fuel production. With a dedicated algae to biogas production, potentiel could be up to 60 TWh. 30% (140 TWh) from methanisation, 40% (180 TWh) from gasification, 30% (140 TWh) from Power-to-Gas 66

67 All 2050 French s gas demand could be fed by renewable gas Methanisation is the basic vector, with available technology Gasification is a sector to foster, with the biggest potential, in competition with wood-fired thermal plants and cogenerations Beyond the power-to-gas needed for adjusting green-mainly electricity mixes, extra power-to-gas is more expensive, yet the adjustment variable. 67

68 Global cost around 120 /MWh (incl. networks) /MWh for the high demand scenario of 360 TWh /MWh if electricity supply cost for power-to-gas reflects the gains that power-to-gas provides to the electricity network (reduction in storage capacities etc.) +20% in cost if biomass were to be less available for gas (-20%) - In favour of direct heat or cogeneration - But notwithstanding limited resort to dedicated crops if needed, possible extra potentials stemming from algae etc. Around 108 /MWh with 25% natural gas. 68

69 Competitive in a neutral carbon economy Current global price (with networks) ~ 50 /MWh 200 /t CO2 tax But somewhat more expensive than today s prices A challenge : that renewable gas sector develops and finds economies of scale 69

70 The adaptation of the networks seem reasonable The study shows that the bulk of the country-spread resources could be tapped with existing and new collecting networks - Whose cost would account for only 2-3% of global cost - With only limited over-the-road biomethane transportation The key to a cost effective network adaptation is a proper multi-year programming - The study estimates that a proper planning of backaul stations and new collecting pipes would bring 40% savings. The transmission and storage assets will remain essential in order to address cold spells and support the electricity network with seasonal storage. 70

71 Biomethane is at least a part of our future! 71

73 Towards the creation of the single marketplace on 1 st November 2018 Shippers Meeting - February 13, 2018

74 Contents Reminder: the main considerations and principles of the single marketplace The CRE Deliberation: the principles have been officially decided on 5 themes Schedule - next steps 74

75 The main considerations and principles of the single marketplace 75

76 Creation of the TRF and a new PEG Today : In November 1st, 2018 : PEG NORD TRS 2 marketplaces (PEG Nord and TRS) 1 Entry/Exit zone 76

77 The expected benefits: a more attractive gas market A single gas price at all times in France (disappearance of North-South spreads ), for the benefit of all consumers A French market more fluid, less volatile, more competitive that is better integrated into the European market A security of supply of France strengthen by improving access to different gas sources and allowing a wider choice of sourcing patterns For the benefit of a competitive market over the long term 77

78 A mixed solution agreed with the market The new structures increase the availability of the capacities and therefore allow more flows to transit from the North to the South Val de Saône: 671m in total Gascogne/Midi: 152m in total Estimate: + 220GWh/d per day i.e. increase of 42% of possible flows on average 78

79 Focus on Val de Saône s infrastructures 79

80 Val de Saône s Infrastructures VOISINES interconnection station 3 interconnections + 1 compressor stations (Etrez - Palleau - Voisines) A new 188 km gas pipeline involving Etrez (01), Palleau (71) et Voisines (52) PALLEAU interconnection station 3 Regions, 4 Countries/Departements and 65 municipalities crossed Gas pipeline : diameter 1,20 m, burried at 1 m depth For the gas pipeline construction, 5 main lots allocated to 3 consortium of undertaking ETREZ compression ETREZ interconnection station + the exit of Etrez station, built through a specific lot 80

82 Operation of the TRF and the PEG 82

83 Operation of the single marketplace : what will change? Disappearance of the North South link Capacities not invoiced as of this date End of JTS sales and coupling Trading of capacities until the merger (annual, quarterly, monthly, daily) Operation of the TRS extended to the TRF in terms of balancing Daily imbalance calculated at the level of the TRF Allocation of imbalances over the GRTgaz and TIGF areas, according to the shipper s portfolio Creation of the PEG on November 1 st, 2018 Creation of PITS Atlantique on April 1 st,

84 Principle of reaching the network limit. Principle of reaching the network limit : There is excess gas upstream And a lack of gas downstream Goal: ensure the use of all of firm capacities subscribed by the shippers 84

85 Continuous information and alert system on the risk of reaching a limit 1 year before Season forecast Publication of the maintenance works program by GRTgaz Seasonal publication of the Season Outlook D-5 D-2 Short term Forecast 5 days update every day From D-1: monitoring at each nomination cycle Green: no imminent risk Orange: risk of occurrence near (approximately 50 GWh/d) Red: proven limit Violet: mutualised restriction (only for D) Network conditions Side of the limit management Small works Sales interruption Interruptible cut Locational Spread Mutualised Restriction NS1 NS2 Upstream Downstream NS3 Downstream x x x NS4 Downstream 85

86 Mechanisms selected for management of the residual limits 1. Agreements with adjacent operators 2. Interruption of interruptible capacities and UIOLI on D-1 and D-Day 3. Non-trading of unsubscribed capacities on D-1 and D-Day 4. Locational spread: call to the market 5. Mutualised restriction of nominations: last resort 86

87 Locational spread principles Main mechanism for management of all residual limits. Similar to the current locational spread product. Optimised cost : activated only when a proven limit is reached and only for the quantity necessary to resolve the limit Market product, relying on the gas stock exchange with a twofold within-day locational product: Purchase by GRTgaz downstream of the limit And simultaneous sale of the same quantity by GRTgaz upstream of the limit > This amounts for the TSOs to buying a spread Extension to CCGTs being studied 87

88 Locational spread: a flexible mechanism open to all shippers + Flexible for shippers: response via a call for tenders, for the purchase, sale, or both, for the quantities that they choose + + Neutral impact of the locational spread on the balancing of the selected shipper (the PEG nomination balances the physical nomination) Prerequisite: accreditation with the Powernext platform + Locational spread is totally non-discriminatory and transparent 88

89 Mutualised restriction principles + As a last resort, within the day, should the call to the market via the locational spread not be effective Partial interruption of firm capacities : pro rata to the subscribed capacities mutualised on a group of points called superpoint, in order to give flexibility to the shippers No financial compensation in the event of use of this mechanism 89

90 Mutualised restriction is applied either upstream or downstream Either the entry flow is reduced by restricting the entries upstream of the limit + Or the exit flow is reduced by restricting exits downstream of the limit The shipper is then imbalanced and must re-balance in the next cycle on the other side of the limit Choice to interrupt the capacities downstream of the limit as soon as possible to minimise the potential impact on the PEG price 90

91 Management of maintenance in TRF zone Maintenance in the North impacts GRTgaz superpoints (upstream; like now, with Optiflow) N1 N2 N3 Maintenance in the South impacts TIGF superpoint (downstream, like now) S1 Maitenance impacting today the North>South link will be passed on the superpoints downstream of the maintenance area -> in the North->South marked situation : new superpoints are created to manage maintenance cases 91

92 Next steps in the change management Each month : regular informations on the web site of GRTgaz html Operational workshop : June 2018 Procedure operational detailed : June to October

93 Key messages Goal: greater gas competitiveness in France. Created on 1 Nov It is called the TRF (Trading Region France) and includes a gas exchange point: the PEG Everyday balancing is done at the level of the TRF, with an allocation of the imbalances between TIGF and GRTgaz (ditto TRS) Choice of a mixed solution with reasonable investments and additional mechanisms for the residual limits of the network. Much greater gas transit thanks to the new structures (average + 42% in transit in the North>South direction) General operation and contractual mechanisms co-constructed and cooperated with the market The mechanisms chosen to manage limits are the best cost-benefit balance for shippers Agreement with adjacent operators Interruption of D-1 interruptible capacities Non-trading of unsubscribed capacities on D-1 and D-Day Locational spread: market mechanism Mutualised restriction: as a last resort Relies on the superpoints for to both manage the limits and maintenance: leaves maximum flexibility to shippers Restrictions (in the event of limit or maintenance) are implemented as much as possible downstream, in order to limit as far as possible the impacts on the price of the PEG in France 93

96 Winter Outlook Reminder Vigilance mechanism started from 6 th of November 2017 Localized Spread is the main mechanism anticipated to handle bottleneck situations identified for this winter in a 2 Downstream zones layout: Bottleneck Variant - for the North Bottleneck - for the South-East bottleneck North Bottleneck North 1 North 2 (= purchase for GRTgaz) 2DK + Montoir (+ North-East*) + North-West + North-Atlantic (+ North-South) Montoir + North-East + North- West + North-Atlantic (+ North- South) Upstream (= sale for GRTgaz and TIGF) PIV + Obergailbach + Oltingue 2DK + PIV + Obergailbach + Oltingue Proof of concept: - with 3 windows - manual trade on the market South-East Bottleneck South-East 1 South-East 2 Fos (+ South-East)* Fos + South-East + Jura Jura + South-Atlantic + Lussagnet + Pirineos (+ North-South) South-Atlantic + Lussagnet + Pirineos (+ North-South) 96

97 Localized Spread general feedback 17 players who have signed for the mechanism used 9 times in 2017 Not used so far in January and February 2018 Only used for South-East bottleneck First window mainly used All the quantities needed have been covered For the 9 call for tenders: 8 different shippers selected and minimum 2 per call for tenders No problem encountered 97

98 South-East Bottleneck Main conditions: - weak output from LNG terminals below 100GWh/j - strong demand on CGGT combined cycle gas turbine power plant up to 20% of the south-east gas demand - not necessarily low temperatures November: 14, 15, 16, 17, 29 December: 5, 6, 7, 9 98

99 Localized Spread detailed feedback Quantities called: from 11 to 75 GWh per day Total of 377 GWh for 9 days Average daily prices: from 2,3 to 6,360 /MWh Global average price: 5,6 /MWh Downstream: PITS Sud-Est Upstream: PITS Lussagnet, PIR Pirineos, PITS Sud-Atlantique 99

101 Pipelines Integrity Management by GRTgaz Shippers Meeting - February 13, 2018

102 Agenda 1. Why does GRTgaz inspect its network 2. How does GRTgaz inspect its pipelines 3. How does GRTgaz repair its pipelines after an inspection 102

103 Why does GRTgaz inspect its pipelines? GRTgaz as a prudent and reasonable pipeline operator committed itself to high safety standards. French legislation "Arrêté du 5 mars 2014" imposes on operators to inspect the entire network during a decade. 103

104 How does GRTgaz inspect its pipelines? GRTgaz implements 2 main worldwide recognized technologies to inspect its network In-line Inspections (ILI) 15 to 20 inspections/y corresponding to 1000 km. 4 frame contracts with major in-line inspections service providers. Above ground electrical measurements Detection of coating defect on corrosion risk areas. External Corrosion Direct Assessment (ECDA). Around 2000 km/y inspected. 104

105 Possible impacts and implemented solutions During In-Line inspections, correct data acquisition requires constant, low speed of the inspections tools As a consequence flow rates might be substantially reduced when operating in-line inspection tools. Our solutions On main transport network, utilization of combined tools and, if possible, utilization of speed control units. 105

106 After the inspection, the analysis and rehabilitation program 25 integrity engineers in charge of Analysis of inspection reports Selection of relevant features Supervision of the multiannual reparation program At GRTgaz, about 2000 excavations performed, 1200 defaults analysed yearly 45 metallurgist engineers and technicians in charge of In ditch characterization of defaults : Identification & NDT, sizing, grinding external metal loss. 106

107 Characterization Safety during in ditch operation has highest priority In case of detection of a presumed severe default, pressure has to be reduce to enable: - Excavation, - Characterization, Our solutions Utilisation of large panel of non destructive testing to properly asses the defaults : radiography, ultrasonic testing, eddy current, Reduction of analysis time using new technologies such as 3D laser mapping. 107

108 Main defaults overview Different types of defaults can be found on a pipeline network Metal loss/corrosion Geometrical defaults such as dent Damage due to third party excavation 108

109 If required, the reparation phase To ensure safe long term operation of the pipelines, severe defaults have to be removed. Pipeline may has to be cut and replaced. Our solutions Use specific hot tapping (double isolation & bypass) to repair with miminum impacts on transit Implementation of metal repair / rebuilding compounds. 109

110 Conclusion GRTgaz is committed to ensure high safety standards while maximizing capacities availability by continuously improving its technical knowledge and solutions
