GRTgaz and Swedegas Join Initiative for Carbon Neutral Gas Supply by 2050

France's GRTgaz and Swedish Swedegas join the Dutch-Danish-Belgian initiative to develop a 100% carbon-neutral gas supply by 2050. Both gas transport operators officially announced this engagement during the Gas Week in the European Parliament in Brussels.

By signing the common commitment, the companies agree to work together across borders in order to exchange knowledge and best practice on ways to develop a 100% carbon-neutral gas supply by 2050, in line with the EU energy and climate goals. Key areas of cooperation are power to gas technologies, hydrogen transmission, gas and LNG as fuel for road and maritime transport, biogas and the further development of green certificates. The initiative is an open platform that welcomes other gas infrastructure companies to join the founders in making significant efforts to develop a sustainable gas supply.

The – now – five parties will arrange a number of joint seminars that will bring experts together from each company in order to further identify the potential for exchanging know-how.
