We are the European association of gas infrastructure operators.
Our 71 members operate a well-connected, highly flexible critical energy infrastructure.
We provide consumers and companies with access to affordable energy and our assets can advance Europe’s energy transition to an integrated energy system and ensure industrial competitiveness.

Gas infrastructure in a nutshell:

  • Operates a well-connected, highly flexible critical energy infrastructure.
  • Provides consumers and companies with access to affordable energy.
  • Advancing Europe’s energy transition to an integrated energy system.
  • Ensuring industrial competitiveness.

Key figures:

  • EU storages can hold 4 months of EU gas demand.
  • 29 LNG terminals imported a third of EU gas demand in 2023.
  • 205.060 km of pipelines enable gas supply to 100 million households and thousands of companies.

Putting these valuable assets to use during the energy crisis enabled Europe to:

  • Rapidly diversify gas imports via LNG terminals.
  • Secure sufficient energy by filling underground storages.
  • Adapt gas flows from West to East.
  • Bringing energy costs down and ensuring industrial competitiveness.
