Report summary
In recent years, there has been a disconnect in French gas prices, with with prices in the south of the country trading at a premium. The key driver for this lack of North-South transmission capacity, which leaves the south more exposed to global LNG dynamics and subject to influence from the Spanish market. There are plans to upgrade capacity and introduce other measures to create a single French gas market to ease this problem, but these are not expected before 2018.
