The national energy regulators of Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, and Ukraine have approved two new routes for the supply of natural gas to Ukraine.

In November, ICGB and the gas transmission system operators (TSOs) of Greece (DESFA), Bulgaria (Bulgartransgaz), Romania (Transgaz), Moldova (Vestmoldtransgaz), and Ukraine (GTSOU) signed an agreement to launch two new routes for transporting gas from Greece to Ukraine. The operators applied to the national regulators to make Route 2 and Route 3 available from December 2025 to April 2026.

ICGB notes that the permits received from the energy regulators enable gas supplies to Ukraine from two sources: liquefied natural gas from the terminal in Alexandroupolis and Caspian pipeline gas via the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) using the Greece-Bulgaria interconnector (IGB) and the Trans-Balkan Corridor.
