Ofgem has given the go-ahead to an overhaul of gas transmission charges that would reduce the current variation between different entry and exit points to the network. It would also remove a discounted short-haul tariff for gas users located close to import terminals that is intended to discourage them from bypassing the transmission network. Industrial gas users have warned the change will make them less competitive with international rivals.
