Colder weather calls on MRS
The current levels of demand are resulting in a small call on MRS. Demand seems higher (probably as a result of a need for gas for the CCGTs). LRS is now running at top speed as it can until about 21st Feb 2008.
The Interconnector is, however, delivering quite well.
The underlying problem is that we call upon stored gas before calling upon imports. That wouldn't be such a problem if LRS could last about a month longer, but it cannot.
The infrastructure is stronger than in Winter 5/6, but the uncertainty is whether there is sufficient gas given pan-European demand to put into the infrastructure.
