Dear Mr Antunes,
 
My name is Pers. data 
and I recently joined GD4S as Pers. data 
Following the meeting of the 19th of April during which you discussed the role of gas DSOs to achieve biomethane’s uptake and REPowerEU’s
targets, we have taken good note of your requests for additional information.
 
Please find attached the following documents:
a note that gathers our main elements of responses
2 slides decks highlighting the different situations on bimethane production and injection in Italy and Romania
A joint report by WWF France and GRDF which proposes a common vision of the overall conditions in which the methanisation sector can
develop in a sustainable manner in France.
I have also attached our recently published Statement on RePowerEU.
 
At your disposal to support you with any additional information you may need.
Kind regards
 
Pers.

Objet : Following your meeting with GD4S on April 19th on REPowerEU and the development of biomethane
 
 
Dear M. Antunes,
 
On behalf of GD4S, we would like to warmly thank you for your time and your interest during our meeting of April 19th.
 
As gas DSOs, GD4S’ members are fully involved into the gas market and are committed to be part and accelerate the transition towards a more
sustainable future for our grids. Such a pathway will mostly use biomethane as a vector for transition.
 
As mentioned during our discussion, feel free to contact us for any specific questions. In the meantime, and as you asked during our exchange, we
are currently working on a comprehensive document in order to provide you more clarity about biomethane issues, including :
1.  Business model on biomethane
2.  Roles and responsibilities along the value chain
3.  Requested incentives
4.  Regulatory measures and framework to incentivise production and injection
5.  Case studies, including the French and the Romanian examples, in order to have a visibility on a proved system (France) and to understand
the context and the perception at an early stage (Romania)
We are looking forward to pursue the discussion with you.
 
Best regards,
