Ordering capacity

Once a year, directly connected downstream grid operators order the maximum exit capacity that can be held available at grid coupling points or exit zones in accordance with Sections 13, 14 of the Cooperation Agreement Gas. This order is to be placed between 01 June and 15 July of the current year for the subsequent calendar year (order year) respectively. Please submit your order via our customer portal ConnectCapacity.

Long-term forecasts

As part of the internal order, you as a directly connected downstream grid operator of terranets bw make a non-binding forecast of your demand for capacity or reserve capacity in accordance with Section 16 of the Cooperation Agreement. The long-term forecast is to be resubmitted in advance every odd calendar year for the 10 years following the order year. If information is available that suggests an increasing or decreasing capacity or reserve capacity demand in the 10 years following the order year, please adjust the forecast upwards or downwards accordingly.

Please submit your long-term forecast via our customer portal ConnectCapacity.
