From 01/01/2020, new regulations of the Bundesnetzagentur apply for the conversion of annual service prices into service prices for capacity rights during the year as well as for the proper determination of network charges ("REGENT").
According to this, the entry and exit fees by the upstream network operator to storage facilities, which are connected to more than one market area are, shall be provided with a discount of 75% as far as VNG Gasspeicher GmbH maintains separate storage accounts for its customers (discounted and non-discounted storage accounts). This proves that storage does not serve for avoiding the transport between market areas. VNG Gasspeicher GmbH offers such an account model for its Etzel storage facility on the basis of this regulation, which comes into force on 101/01/2020.
In contrast to the previous regulation ("BEATE"), gas can only be transferred between two discounted accounts or two non-discounted accounts within the same market area. The rebooking fee has been abolished.
Further information can be found in the product overview under FAQ and in the "Additional conditions for the cross-market area use of the Etzel storage facility" (attached to the model contract).

How does VNG Gasspeicher GmbH (VGS) implement the new account regulation?
VGS will continue to implement the REGENT specifications using a two-account model. This means that one account less is implemented than it is required according to REGENT Regulation. In order to nevertheless guarantee all the requirements of the REGENT Regulation, VGS restricts the gas-in-store-transfer between non-discounted accounts of the various market areas for its customers.
Is it possible at the Etzel storage facility to withdraw gas into GASPOOL which was injected via NCG?
Yes, this is possible. Gas that was injected from the NCG market area into a non-discounted account can later be withdrawn by the customer in the direction of GASPOOL without discount if the customer nominates the withdrawal in the direction of GASPOOL and the non-discounted account for the GASPOOL market area is empty. In this case, VGS automatically uses the gas quantities in the NCG market area's non-discounted account for withdrawal.
How can a customer switch the market area within the storage at the Etzel storage facility?
When using a discounted account, a customer cannot change the market area within the Etzel storage facility. If gas has been injected into a non-discounted account, then a change of market area is only possible within the framework of withdrawal. See the answer to the above question.
Why does VGS not allow gas-in-store-transfers between two non-discounted accounts of different market areas?
VGS only uses two accounts for the implementation of the REGENT specifications in its IT systems. By preventing gas transfers between non-discounted accounts of two market areas, we ensure that gas stored on a non-discounted account in one market area can later also be withdrawn into the same market area with a discount. If gas transfers between non-discounted accounts were possible, then injected quantities from a non-discounted account could later not be withdran into the same market area with a discount.
Can a customer transfer gas from a discount account to a non-discounted account?
Gas that the customer has stored in a discounted account can also be transferred to a non-discounted account. However, only if the network operator offers so-called "Fakturierung".
What does "Fakturierung" mean?
"Fakturierung" replaces the previous "transfer fee", which is now billed by the TSO. If a TSO offers "Fakturierung", the customer can switch from a discounted account to a non-discounted account in the same market area. For this purpose, however, the customer must first contact the respective network operator.
