04/03/2025 (Agence Europe) – On 28 February, the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas (ENTSOG) published the cost-benefit analysis (CBA) methodology for hydrogen infrastructure projects. This methodology aims to provide a common basis for assessing projects in terms of their contribution to achieving the EU’s energy and climate objectives. In particular, it will play a role in the preparation of future Ten-Year Network Development Plans (TYNDPs), the selection of Projects of Common Interest (PCIs) and Projects of Mutual Interest (PMIs), and cross-border cost allocation procedures. “By aligning with the TEN-E Regulation and incorporating stakeholder feedback, we are ensuring that our approach is comprehensive and forward-looking, supporting the integration of renewable and low carbon gases into the European energy system”, explained Piotr Kuś, ENTSOG’s Director General.
