GRTgaz Deutschland is a wholly owned subsidiary of GRTgaz SA. GRTgaz is the most significant transmission system operator (TSO) in France and, like GRTgaz Deutschland, is certified as an Independent Transmission Operator (ITO) under European law.

As shareholder of MEGAL GmbH & Co. KG, GRTgaz Deutschland is the operator of the pipeline system of the same name in Germany. Furthermore, we hold shares in PRISMA European Capacity Platform GmbH, on whose platform our capacities are offered and auctioned, as well as in Trading Hub Europe GmbH, which manages the balancing group for the market area of the same name. 

As a link between Eastern and Western Europe, GRTgaz Deutschland operates a gas pipeline system that is an important player for flexible energy supply for all of Europe. As part of the European gas infrastructure, we make a crucial contribution to the security of supply in Europe and are preparing our MEGAL pipeline system for the transport of hydrogen. We are working on realizing the transport of CO2-neutral hydrogen from the Iberian Peninsula via France to Germany. By participating in the hydrogen Kernnetz, we are actively involved in the transformation of the infrastructure and are an important player in the energy transition. We are not only committed to sustainable solutions, we also implement them in a targeted way.

GRTgaz Deutschland is committed to the further development of the gas market at both German and European levels. We are a member of the FNB Gas Association, which represents the interests of German transmission system operators, and above all draws up the joint network development plan for Germany. Together with the other TSOs, we have been working on the creation of the Trading Hub Europe, which emerged from the merger of NCG and Gaspool as the only German market area and the leading market area in Europe since October 1st, 2021. In Europe we are participating in the work of ENTSOG and Gas Infrastructure Europe. In terms of sustainability, we are involved in many initiatives to promote green gases. More about this under Our Future.
