Enagás said that the total investment would reach €4.76bn with the addition of the interconnector projects included in the European Commission’s REPowerEU document.
Among the projects included in the REPowerEU document are a subsea gas pipeline between Spain and Italy and a pipeline between Spain and Portugal.
Enagás CEO Arturo Gonzalo said: “This 2022-2030 Strategic Plan repositions the company around the two main axes of the new European energy paradigm and Enagás’ purpose: security of supply and decarbonisation.
“In the current complex energy policy and strategic context, Spain and also Enagás can contribute decisively to these European objectives.”
