Central tasks of the AGGM

Security of supply & gas network control

The control of gas flows in the Austrian gas grids and the safeguarding of gas supplies are core competencies of AGGM. As an independent system operator, it ensures that the gas fed into the grids by the market participants reliably reaches the end customers. To ensure that the gas grid functions stably around the clock, AGGM makes sure that sufficient balancing energy is always available. In April 2022, AGGM was commissioned by the Austrian federal government to procure and manage a strategic gas reserve to secure the national gas supply.

Energy transition & climate-neutral gases

The promotion of renewable gases and the planning of a sustainable infrastructure are fundamental goals of AGGM. Feed-in concepts for renewable gases such as biomethane and hydrogen as well as the future rededication of existing gas pipelines for the transport of hydrogen are important planning bases for this. As a co-creator of a climate-neutral future, AGGM has launched a number of initiatives to identify ways and opportunities for realising the energy system turnaround.
