Mixing hydrogen and all relevant technical processes will
certainly remain a key part of the future development of the
Interconnector Greece-Bulgaria (ICGB), in line with the development
of the market's evolution and in close cooperation with adjacent
transmission system operators (TSOs). According to Azernews, this
was informed by the ICGB, the pipeline operator.
"While ICGB is dedicated to staying on top of sector trends and
continuing to develop the pipeline's infrastructure to meet market
demand and developments, current efforts are predominantly
dedicated to IGB's technical capacity expansion from 3 to 5 bcm/y.
The binding phase of the incremental process is planned for July
2024 and the company is working actively to make this possible,"
the report says.
The ICGB gas pipeline connects with the Greek national gas
transmission system (DESFA S.A.) and the Trans-Adriatic gas
pipeline (TAP AG) in the area of Komotini (Greece), and with the
Bulgarian gas transmission system (Bulgartransgaz EAD) in the area
of Stara Zagora. The total length of the gas pipeline is 182 km,
the diameter of the pipe is 32'', and it has a design capacity of
up to 3 billion m3/year in the direction of Greece and Bulgaria.
Depending on market interest for larger capacity and the
possibilities of the neighbouring gas transmission systems, the
capacity of IGB is designed with the option of increasing up to 5
billion m3/year with the additional construction of a compressor
station.
