Following receipt of submissions on its September discussion paper on Wholesale Market Design, Gas Industry Co has issued a further discussion paper which reports on the analysis of the submissions, provides Gas Industry Co's view on the issues raised and requests further input on a specific range of matters. This work stream is now focused on advancing the preparation of a standard gas sales agreement for shorter-term trades and investigating the feasibility of a matching platform as a basis for low-cost, electronic trading. Each of these initiatives is aimed at increasing transactional efficiency in gas trading.
