1 Baltic Energy Security and Independence NATO Advanced Research Workshop Developing Common Investments for Energy and Energy Security Vilnius, June, 2004

2 Baltic Energy Cooperation for Security of Supply Agreement on Cooperation in the Energy Sector (signed between the Ministries in charge of energy affairs of the three Baltic countries) Baltic Energy Strategy (adopted by the Baltic Council of Ministers and the Baltic Assembly) Security of supply considered as an essential objective of a regional co-operation Interconnections important measure to improve the overall security of supply

3 Key Elements to the Success Country case study Extension to the regional case study Continuity of methodology Data consistency Risk factors Project ranking Review and integration of related sectors projects Financial attractiveness of selected projects Partners selection

4 Review of the Eastern Baltic Gas Sector Main findings of the EBRD funded study: Updating of the Gas Sector Development Plan in Lithuania and its Interface with Gas Sector Development in Latvia, Estonia, NW Russia, Belarus and Poland Consultant: RAMBOLL (Denmark), November 2003

5 Objectives Update of market developments for the eastern Baltic Sea Region (BSR) Energy balances on supply and demand Update potential gas development projects Implementation of the EC Gas Directive in the region Identification and ranking of regional gas interconnectors Identification and ranking of potential gas storage projects Identification and ranking of potential Lithuanian gas infrastructure projects Final recommendations

6 Potential Gas Interconnectors EU Amber Project (1) BalticPipe (2) Finland Estonia (3) Mid Nordic Pipeline (4) Mid Nordic Gas Grid (5) Baltic Gas Interconnector (6) North European Pipeline (7) Bernau Sczecin(8)

7 Scope of study work Compliance with EC Energy Objectives and Regulation Classification of potential projects into gas interconnectors, gas storage projects and Lithuanian gas infrastructure projects Evaluate economic and technical feasibility based on Least-cost criteria Socio-economic impact Capacity analysis Security of supply

8 Scope of study work (cont.) Update gas supply potential and gas demand for the region Comparison of gas demand and gas supply capacity for BSR Identify demand-supply gaps and bottlenecks SWOT analysis of the examined projects Ranking of the examined projects and propose further actions

19 Summary of study Strong economic development and GDP growth in the BSR region Strong regional increase in energy and specifically gas demands Regional interconnectors: High performance in particular for the North European Pipeline and the Amber project Gas storage projects: High performance for enlargement of Incukalns UGS and need for diversification of storage plants Lithuanian infrastructure: High performance for Lithuanian/Latvian border meter station, gas supply to Ignalina NPP and development of Vaskai UGS

20 Main findings of study Regional projects: Need for detailed financial feasibility analysis and formation of financing plans Vaskai UGS: Need for completion of additional surveys Ranking of projects changes depending on implementation and scope of large regional projects (NEP or Trans Baltic, Amber, etc.) Implementation of these projects depends on decisions of Governments, stakeholders in BSR gas sector (eg Ruhrgas/E.ON and Gazprom) and availability of funding
