Article 2 e

Establishment and evaluation of technical and market codes 1. After consulting the Agency, the Commission may invite the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas, within a reasonable period of time, to prepare codes in the areas listed in Article 2c(3) where it considers that such codes are necessary for the efficient functioning of the market. 2. The Agency shall provide a duly justified opinion to the Commission where it considers that: (a) a technical or market code adopted by the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas in the areas listed in Article 2c(3) does not ensure non-discrimination, effective competition and the efficient functioning of the market; (b) the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas fails to agree within a reasonable period of time on a technical or market code in the areas listed in Article 2c(3); (c) the transmission system operators fail to implement a technical or market code adopted by the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas in the areas listed in Article 2c(3). 3. The Commission may adopt, on its own initiative or upon recommendation of the Agency, guidelines on the areas listed in Article 2c(3) when it considers that: (a) a technical or market code adopted by the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas in the areas listed in Article 2c(3) does not ensure non-discrimination, effective competition and the efficient functioning of the market; (b) the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas fails to agree within a reasonable period of time on a technical or market code in the areas listed in Article 2c(3); (c) the transmission system operators fail to implement a technical or market code adopted by the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Gas in the areas listed in Article 2c(3). Those measures designed to amend non- essential elements of this Regulation by supplementing it shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 14(2). 4. Paragraph 3 shall be without prejudice to the Commission's right to adopt and amend guidelines as laid down in Article 9Guidelines and codes 1. The Commission shall mandate the Agency to develop guidelines and adopt codes to harmonise technical and market rules with the view to facilitating market integration. 2. The guidelines and codes may in particular cover the following areas: (a) security and reliability rules; (b) grid connection and access rules; (c) data exchange and settlement rules; (d) interoperability rules; (e) operational procedures in an emergency; (f) capacity allocation and congestion management rules; (g) rules for cross-border intra-day markets with harmonised gate closures; (h) rules for trading, ensuring in particular the development of secondary markets for cross-border transmission rights and the security of transmission rights; (i) transparency rules; (j) balancing rules including storage rules; (k) rules regarding harmonised transportation tariff structures including locational signals and inter-TSO compensation rules; (l) energy efficiency regarding gas networks.
