Entry-Exit
An Entry-Exit System is one where a gas shipper is charged an entry price for putting gas into a transmission or distribution network at a defined entry point, and an exit price for removing the gas at a defined exit point. The prices can reflect congestion at entry and exit points, but are the same for any user. The system may be contrasted with point to point systems, where transportation charges depend on the actual or theoretical distance travelled by each consignment of gas. Entry-Exit is strongly favoured by the EU as a means of promoting gas liberalisation.
