Gasunie profile
Gasunie profile
Gasunie is an energy infrastructure company. In the Netherlands and the northern part of Germany, we operate infrastructure for the large-scale transport, storage and conversion of gas. At the moment, this is mainly natural gas, but the energy transition is increasingly bringing about a shift towards green gas and hydrogen. We also work on the construction and operation of heat and CO2 grids.
Our task is to provide safe, reliable, affordable and sustainable energy infrastructure services, ensuring that everyone has access to energy, always. This is of crucial importance to the economy and society. Our infrastructure, services and geographical position mean that we are at the heart of the north-western European gas market.
Gasunie has two principal activities:
- we provide regulated, open-access transport services through the gas transport network in the Netherlands and Germany,
- and we offer energy infrastructure services, either independently or in partnership with other parties.
Gasunie is a connecting factor in the value chains for molecule-based energy carriers
Our transport and infrastructure services connect energy producers to energy (end) users. We give third parties non-discriminatory access to our services.
We operate and develop energy infrastructure and energy trading platforms: gas transport networks, international transit pipelines, gas storage, gas conversion, LNG infrastructure and virtual gas trading platforms.
Our infrastructure functions as an international hub for the supply and transit of gas. This enables us to contribute to a liquid, competitive and reliable European energy market.
Our overall and management focus is increasingly on developing transition energy supply chains and renewable energy supply chains. We do so by striking up new joint arrangements and creating new business models. We invest in projects relating to green gas, hydrogen, heat, CCUS and LNG.
The Dutch state is our sole shareholder. Our employees are spread over more than thirty locations in the Netherlands and northern Germany, with delegations in Brussels and Moscow. Our headquarters are in Groningen (Netherlands), and our main German office is located in Hanover.
