Theory of storage: an empirical assessment of the European natural gas market

Stronzik, Marcus; Rammerstorfer, Margarethe; Neumann, Anne - 2008

We analyze the relation between European natural gas storage facilities and price patterns at major trading points, considering the theory of storage to derive a testable hypothesis imposed by the non-arbitrage condition. To model the efficiency of the natural gas market, we apply two indirect...

Perspectives of the European natural gas markets until 2025

Holz, Franziska; von Hirschhausen, Christian R.; … - 2008

We apply the EMF 23 study design to simulate the effects of the reference case and the scenarios to European natural gas supplies to 2025. We use GASMOD, a strategic severallayer model of European gas supply, consisting of upstream natural gas producers, traders in each consuming European...
