Load flow commitments
Tendering of load flow commitments for usage during 2027
The Thyssengas GmbH requires load flow commitments for the operation of the grid within the market area Trading Hub Europe. These serve as an instrument for the offering of firm, freely associable entry and exit capacity for transportation within the Thyssengas grid at the largest possible extent.
Thyssengas thus fulfills its obligation to take all economically reasonable measures needed for the offering of firm, freely associable entry and exit capacity at the largest possible extent, in order to prevent an intervention based on § 16 Sec. 2 EnWG [German Energy Industry Act] in order to maintain the security and reliability of the gas supply system. If there are not sufficient economically reasonable measures available after this tender, the likelihood that measures according to § 16 Sec. 2 EnWG have to be taken increases significantly for all shippers in the market area.
Thyssengas invites tenders for positive H-gas load flow commitments for the usage period from January to March and from October to December 2027.
The tender begins on June 15, 2026 and ends on July 15, 2026 at 12 noon. The offers have to be released using the offer form (version as of May 13, 2026) in a PDF-format by e-mail to ausschreibung@thyssengas.com. The signed master agreement (version as of May 15, 2025) must be submitted in a PDF-format by e-mail to the aforementioned mailbox, at the latest by the time of the submission of the offer, as well.
Tenderers are bound to their bids until August 14, 2026.
The lot size of the load flow commitments is 10 MWh/h.

To determine the ranking of the tenders Thyssengas uses the lump sum price as a basis. The lump sum price of a tendered lot for a month is defined as the sum of the demand charge and the product of the unit charge, the lot size and the predicted duration of usage. For this tender Thyssengas determines the predicted duration of usage to the amount of 24 hours. The predicted duration of usage will be used exclusively to identify the ranking of the tenders; it does not give information about the real duration of usage of the load flow commitment. For this purpose the rules of the particular master agreement and the processing rules for the call-off of load flow commitments apply exclusively.
Bids may be submitted for individual months in the usage period and accepted for individual months by Thyssengas.
The tenders are open to all suppliers who have pre-qualified and accept the terms for the pre-qualification and tendering procedure (version as of May 16, 2022).
Fuel gas
Thyssengas GmbH requires natural gas and biomethane to cover its own consumption in order to operate the gas network. The sustainable biomethane quantities are used to reduce emissions for the generation of motive power in the compressor plants, which are certified in accordance with SURE (Sustainable Resources Verification Scheme). Proof of sustainability is provided via the web application Sustainable Biomass Systems (Nabisy) of the Federal Office for Agriculture and Food.
Currently there is no tender for fuel gas.
