Today, TAP, SRG and DESFA are opening a new incremental capacity process, in line with CAM NC and the Guidelines for the 2025 Market Test of TAP AG (CAM NC https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:32017R0459 FJO https://www.autorita.energia.it/allegati/docs/13/249-13all.pdf)
Please note that this new incremental process is separate from the Binding Phase of the 2023 Market Test, which TAP, SRG and DESFA intend to perform in the fourth quarter of 2025, upon the approval of the Project Proposal for the Binding Phase by the Italian, Greek and Albanian NRAs 1.
We hereby invite all Interested Parties to submit Non-Binding Demand Indications by 1st September 2025.
The Demand Assessment Report of TAP, SRG and DESFA for this 2025 incremental process is intended to be published after the end of the Binding Phase of the 2023 Market Test. Therefore, Interested Parties will be given the opportunity to revise their Non-Binding Demand Indications submitted to TAP, SRG and DESFA for Interconnection Points offered in the Binding Phase of the 2023 Market Test. The precise deadline for revision of Non-Binding Interest will be communicated to the Interested Parties when the outcome of that Binding Phase is known and will be at least two weeks after the time of notification.
TAP, in coordination with SRG and DESFA, will keep updating all relevant information on their websites in the coming months.
All relevant details for the submission, including supporting documentation, can be found on the websites of the TSOs:
