EN The delivery point for wholesale market contracts is VTP.
VTP is the single point for all natural gas ownership transfers in the balancing area of the Republic of Moldova. Such a transfer of ownership is carried out by the BRPby sending a commercial notification to the Balancing Entiry. VTP is not a physical point of the natural gas network, but a notional point for the balancing area of the Republic of Moldova. BRPs are not required to contact capacity at VTP.
The right to submit commercial notices for the transfer of ownership to VTP (access to VTP) is granted to BRP, based on a balancing contract.
Balancing Entiry will operate continuously (24/7) VTP by: processing, coordination, confirmation and allocation of commercial notifications from BRP. This involves, in particular, providing the necessary personnel for the information technology systems and the necessary communications infrastructure.
In order to recover the costs of operating the VTP, Balancing Entiry is entitled to require transparent and non-discriminatory payments for providing access to the VTP. This may involve, inter alia, the introduction of an annual subscription payment, a quantity-based payment and/or payments related to the number of commercial notices sent in a certain defined period. The introduction or modification of existing payments for access to VTP is carried out after prior coordination by the The National Agency for Energy Regulation following public consultations.
BRP has to pay the payments invoiced by the Balancing Entity based on the services provided and which are the subject of payments for access to the VTP.
