ACER launches an open call for members for a new Expert Group on LNG Price Assessment/Benchmarks
What is it about?
The EU Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) is establishing an Expert Group on LNG Price Assessment/Benchmarks.
Application deadline is 14 December 2022.
The proposed new Council regulation on enhancing solidarity through better coordination of gas purchases, exchanges of gas across borders and reliable price benchmarks tasks ACER with developing an LNG price assessment tool by collecting real-time information on all daily transactions.
The new Expert Group on LNG Price Assessment/Benchmarks will build on the experience of previous Expert Groups organised by ACER, providing expert views and opinions on the development of regulatory policies and measures related to LNG price assessments and/or benchmarks.
The terms of reference for the Expert Group and the specific criteria for the experts are set out in the Open Letter on the Establishment of an Expert Group on LNG Price Assessment/Benchmarks. The work of the expert group shall begin following publication of the regulation in the Official Journal of the European Union.
