Life Methamorphosis

The CEO of NEDGIA, Nuria Rodríguez, attended a meeting in Brussels with the European Union Managing Director of Energy, Dominique Ristori, together with the CEOs of the leading gas distribution companies in Europe (Italgas, Distrigaz Sud Retele, Galp Gás Natural Distribuiçao and GRDF) to discuss how natural gas and renewable gas can contribute to economic decarbonisation in Europe. These companies make up Gas Distributors for Sustainability (GD4S).

The CEOs from GD4S praised the long-term emissions reduction strategy of the EU and recalled that, to guarantee balance and resilience, the energy combination of the future will need to be based on an energy mix that includes gas.

Gas distribution networks are therefore a unique European heritage that is already fully available and, thanks to the gradual increase in the availability of renewable gas, could be used to facilitate the European economic decarbonisation process.

In this context, GD4S is calling on the European Commission to position gas at the heart of its strategy, alongside electricity, in order to effectively combine their benefits.
