2、 16726:2015 as a British Standard. However, attention is drawn to the fact that during the development of this European Standard, the UK committee voted against its approval as a European Standard.The UK committee voted against the adoption of EN 16726:2015 due to concerns with the specification in

3、EN 16726:2015 relating to elemental components in natural gas. The UK committee cannot be sure how appliances currently in operation would perform if subject to a variation in gas specification. Furthermore, the committee is concerned about the potential costs of converting some 30 million gas appli

4、ances to burn any new gas safely and efficiently without detailed research. Installed gas appliances have been designed to be safe and to operate efficiently within historic UK gas specifications. The gas quality required for safe operation of gas appliances installed in the UK was stipulated in the

5、 Gas Safety (Management) Regulations 1996 (Statutory Instrument 1996 No. 551).The UK committee also had concerns about the legal framework of the standard, specifically the European Commissions proposal to amend the Interoperability and Data Exchange Code in 2016 to implement EN 16726:2015 by EU reg

6、ulation. In view of the committees concerns and bi-lateral gas supply commitments, the UK committee is considering the CEN/CENELEC internal regulations Part 3, relating to A-deviations and Special National Conditions. Further details about the UK committees concerns can be found in National Annex NA

7、.Owing to widespread objections from the Member States after the Formal Vote, the EC subsequently withdrew their requirement to implement EN 16726 in the Interoperability and Data Exchange Code. At EC request, the European gas transportation stakeholders group ENTSOG conducted an Impact Analysis on

8、various options for implementing EN 16726:2015, in which the UK participated fully. ENTSOG has recommended that the Interoperability Code should not be amended to make EN 16726:2015 a binding provision. Work continues at CEN on finding a European Agreement on Wobbe Index and the UK committee reserve

9、s its position on A-deviations and Special National Conditions. The results of the now completed Oban Trial, which covers some 1100 existing customers and gases with an extended range of Wobbe Index, will inform this debate (https:/www.sgn.co.uk/Oban/).The UK participation in its preparation was ent

According to this mandate the goal is to define specifications that are as wide as possible within reasonable costs. This

25、means that the specifications enhance the free flow of gas within the internal EU market, in order to promote competition and security of supply minimizing the negative effects on gas infrastructure and gas networks, efficiency and the environment and allow appliances to be used without compromising

26、 safety. Some requirements specified in this European Standard, Clause 5, cannot be applied in Germany, Hungary and the Netherlands due to existing conflicting national legislation.

40、ue chain from gas production and supply to end uses. However, at the moment of publication of this European standard, a common Wobbe Index range cannot be defined because of different regulations in CEN Member States and limited knowledge of the influence of broadening Wobbe Index range on integrity

41、, efficiency and safe use of appliances in some countries (see Annex D). In order to find a common Wobbe Index range, further studies, such as the Gas Quality Harmonization Implementation Pilot, are necessary. The Wobbe Index should be defined when the pending results of these studies are available.

42、 The common Wobbe Index range should be implemented in a revised standard in due time. For hydrogen, at present it is not possible to specify a limiting value which would generally be valid for all parts of the European gas infrastructure (see Annex E).
