Consultation on the draft Gas and Hydrogen NDP 2025

On March 3, the Coordination Office for Integrated Network Development Planning for Gas and Hydrogen (KO.NEP) submitted the draft Gas and Hydrogen Network Development Plan (NDP) 2025 for consultation. The Gas and Hydrogen NDP is a key instrument of the German energy transition: it describes the necessary expansion and conversion of the gas and hydrogen infrastructure, thereby laying the foundation for a secure and climate-neutral energy supply.

The transmission system operators and hydrogen transport network operators invite participation in the consultation and welcome public involvement.
