The European Commission recognises the importance of the Ionian-Adriatic Pipeline (IAP) for the regional gas market, in particular Croatia, Albania, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina, a source in the European Commission told Trend.
The implementation of the Trans-Adriatic gas pipeline (TAP), Greece-Bulgaria (IGB) interconnector and Ionian-Adriatic pipeline (IAP) projects, that provide Azerbaijani gas to Europe, needs to be accelerated.
According to Trend.az, which refers to Greek media, the Greek Prime Minister - Kyriakos Mitsotakis said this on the sidelines of the fourth Thessaloniki summit.
Croatia expects to receive about 2.5 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year through the Ionian-Adriatic Pipeline (IAP), which is to deliver Azerbaijani gas to Europe. This was stated to a reporter of Trend.az at the Croatian Ministry of Environment and Energy.
The Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) and Ionian-Adriatic Pipeline (IAP) are strategic projects that can ensure diversification of transportation routes and gas supply security for Croatia, “Trend.az” reports with reference to the draft energy development strategy of Croatia until 2030, published by the country’s Ministry of Environment and Energy.
