European Commission grants €465m for Polish gas network development

The European Commission has found a PLN 1,950m (approx. €465m) support measure for the construction of a series of gas pipelines and modernisation works in different parts of Poland to be in line with EU state aid rules.

GAZ-SYSTEM, Poland gas transmission system operator, will build a network of new pipelines that will help setting up a “North-South corridor” of gas supply in Poland. The corridor is a network of infrastructure intended to facilitate the access to gas supply sources in the North (i.e. Norwegian gas and the LNG terminal in Świnoujście) and to better integrate the Polish gas market with the gas markets in Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
