ACTIVITY REPORT 2 13-2 14 Eurogas Is the Association Representing the European Gas Wholesale, Retail and Distribution Sectors ACTIVITY REPORT 2 13-2 14 Eurogas is the association representing the European gas wholesale, retail and distribution sectors. Founded in 1990, its members are some 45 companies and associations from 25 countries. Eurogas represents the sectors towards the EU institutions and, as such, participates in the Madrid Gas Regulatory Forum, the Gas Coordination Group, the Citizens Energy Forum and other stakeholder groups. Its members work together, analysing the impact of EU political and legislative initiatives on their business and communicating their findings and suggestions to the EU stakeholders. The association also provides statistics and forecasts on gas consumption, as well as information on energy taxation in Europe. For this, the association can draw on national data supplied by its member companies and associations.

Speaking to the European Commission, the context of economic crisis, a lack of co-ordination European Parliament, the Council, the press and with other policies (such as energy efficiency and many other opinion formers, Eurogas has explained renewable energy), and the impact of international that this would be effective in achieving a low-carbon credits. This situation has caused the collapse of energy system while avoiding the side-effects of the the carbon price, which, coupled with a low price of 2020 targets such as, high costs for consumers, coal, has led to coal-fired power stations seeing a security of electricity supply concerns and the revival new heyday. At the same time, Eurogas members of highly emitting coal-fired power stations. On the and their customers had to take their gas-fired contrary, this approach will benefit gas and renewables power stations out of service. As a result, carbon as well as promote greater energy efficiency. dioxide (CO2) emissions are rising again in some Member States and there is concern about the loss The proposal on a climate and energy framework of flexible electricity generation capacity required toward 2030, published by the Commission in January, to back up the rising market share of electricity constitutes a good basis for discussion. from variable renewables. 2 President’s Message Gas technology can be perfectly used in combination with renewables. ” Paradoxically, in the United States, the shale gas the European Commission and Member States on revolution has caused CO2 emissions to drop this matter. considerably. And yet it is a shale gas revolution that many in Europe are working to suppress, After two terms, my time as President of Eurogas is without testing it and considering its potential coming to an end. As Former President, I will remain positive impact. fully committed to Eurogas and will continue to support our association. I wish my successor the very Eurogas will also continue to demonstrate that gas best in continuing the good work dedicated to technology is up and running, and can reduce energy improving the business environment for gas and to demand and emissions not only in power generation further developing political understanding of the but also in heating and transport. And that such essential role that gas can play in a competitive, technology can be perfectly used in combination secure and clean energy system of the future. with renewables. Of course, I must mention the new Russia-Ukraine Jean-François Cirelli, crisis that has pushed security of supply concerns President further up the agenda. The gas industry is working together to address these concerns. Indeed, it is important to Eurogas member companies that they meet their customers’ needs. Diverse supply sources and routes, good interconnection of the EU energy networks, smooth cross-border sales and storage are essential elements. Eurogas will continue to contribute actively to the reflection of 3 urogas members – whether by participating in of market-distorting measures, such as price regulation committees, or meetings with European Union and support schemes for renewables. The possible E stakeholders, or through their membership alone – need for capacity remuneration mechanisms is still on have once again shown that joining forces pays off. the agenda to maintain a business case for gas-fired As the 2030 framework for energy and climate power stations and thus security of electricity supply. policies is being debated, both the need and room for This year and next will see particular focus on retail gas is becoming increasingly apparent.

  • 064-Sant'andrea Delle Fratte
    (064/36) Sant'Andrea delle Fratte Sant'Andrea delle Fratte is a minor basilica, as well as an early 17th century parish, titular and convent church in the rione Colonna, just to the south of the Piazza di Spagna, dedicated to St Andrew the Apostle. History The first church here was built in the 1192, called infra hortes (later translated into "delle Fratte" or "shrubs") for it was located in a countryside area. The first time that the name Fratte is used is in the 15th century. It means literally "woods" or "overgrown vegetation", and seems to commemorate an overgrown area which might have been an abandoned piece of land, some shrubby garden or the facing slope of the Pincian hill when it was still wild. (1) (11) The church was probably rebuilt (or newly built on this site) in the 15th century, when there is a hint in the records that an Augustinian nunnery was established here. Then it was for some time the national church of Scotland as an independent kingdom (St Andrew is Scotland's patron). After the Scottish Reformation in 1560 the Scots completely lost interest in it, and for a while it was taken over by a pious confraternity dedicated to the Blessed Sacrament. However it was given to the Order of Minim of St. Francis of Paola Friars in 1585, and they still serve the parish which was simultaneously created. (1) (11) In 1604 the construction of the new church was begun, under the design of Gaspare Guerra. The project halted in 1612 due to lack of funds.

  • ASCOR Final Report V4
    Project ASCOR, Bulgarian-Swiss Research Programme, Final Report, June 2016 Final Scientific Report Arsenic contamination of Ogosta river: Linking biogeochemical processes in floodplain soils with river system dynamics (ASCOR) 1. Introduction The sustainable management of land, which has been heavily contaminated by industrial or mining activities, poses an important challenge to many industrialized countries, including Bulgaria. This project focused on arsenic (As) contamination in NW Bulgaria, where the floodplains of the Ogosta river received large amounts of As-rich mining wastes near Chiprovtsi between 1964 and 1979. The research project had three main goals, which were addressed in three work packages (WP1–3): • WP1 – Investigation of the magnitude and spatial distribution of As contamination in the floodplains of Ogosta river (Bulgaria) using an integrated approach based on topography, hydrology, and geochemistry (WP1, lead partner: BAS). • WP2 - Improvement of our process-understanding of As speciation and mobility in highly-contaminated, mining affected river floodplains during alternating periods of high/low flow and flooding/drainage, respectively (WP2, lead partner: ETH). • WP3 – Exploration of novel approaches for integrating process-oriented, molecular-scale knowledge (WP2) and river-system scale information (WP1) to better understand As dynamics, As fluxes, and impacts on water quality at the river-system scale (lead partners: ETH and BAS). This final report briefly summarizes the activities and results achieved in the three work packages. It is structured according to the tasks outlined in the original proposal. 2. Summary of research results 2.1. Results of WP1 Task 1-1. Building a GIS database for the upper Ogosta river catchment During the life time of the project data on soil, topography, groundwater, hydrological and hydrogeological settings has been generated and organized in Excel files and in data layers to be used and processed in GIS environment.

  • Engineer Ilie Radu, in Order to Satisfy the City's Needs with Drinking Water from the Danube
    Project "The Path of Clay" Project code 15.2.1.003, funded by INTERREG V-A Romania-Bulgaria Program Introduction The Danube River has always been and will be a symbol of life. The great river separates and unites people, gives them drinking water, irrigation, gives them food and livelihood. It is an important transport artery - rafts, boats and ships since ancient times have connected not only its two banks, but also people who live and work in its fertile plain. The Danube divides and unites nations, cities and states. Downstream, before its fast-paced waters flow into the Black Sea, the water border is formed between two Balkan states - Bulgaria and Romania. The Lower Danube spills its lush waters along both shores to water the mother land feeding the two peoples - Bulgarian and Romanian. Tighten up your luggage and come with us on an exciting journey through the Path of Clay. We will have eight administrative districts located in two countries - Bulgaria and Romania, on both sides of the fertile Danube valley. Awaiting us a journey full of surprises and inspiration. In addition to beautiful scenery, you will be impressed: ancient ruins from the beginning of our millennium scattered in the two Roman provinces of Dacia and Moesia; medieval Orthodox churches and monasteries; remnants of fortress walls and destroyed palaces, who are witnesses of past majesty and glory. We will trace how the lives of our ancestors changed in different ages, we will touch their lifestyle, traditions and culture. But still there is the eternal land to which we are born and live.

  • Municipality of Stara Zagora
    Stara Zagora is a city of millenary history. In its ancient stadium gladiators and athletes measured their strength competing against themselves rather than fighting with others. As Mayor of Stara Zagora I am immensely pleased to see the city participate and live yet another victory of the will over the body; a victory of strength and beauty over time A VICTORY OF MAN. I believe that sports have a mission, which has remained unchanged through centuries and this mission is to unite people and make them truly human. Let us all now see, in this millenary city of Stara Zagora, the true face of sports; let us imprint it in our memories and experience on every stadium a show of friendship and sportsmanship. Welcome to Stara Zagora!!! Zhivko Todorov Mayor of Stara Zagora Dear friends, It is a great pleasure and honour to address to you today because we are among the few chosen ones who have smelt the grass of many stadiums, who have felt the rush of adrenalin and drank the bitter cup of sweet loss. Such a loss is sweet because there is a friend stadium next to you when you have lost, and it is bitter because the true athlete`s strive to win never fades. We, the organizers of this event, will do our best to make you participate to a celebration of strength, beauty and perfection, a feast of true sport as imagined by Olympian Greeks and described by Pierre de Coubertin. My friends, I am honoured to welcome you at the 27th Balkan Masters Athletics Games, which Stara Zagora is hosting for the first time.

The companies are ranked based on their turnover in 2013. The economic problems of the region in the last few years have also / 02 Coface Adriatic/Balkan Top 50: Ranking and methodology taken their toll on the top players: Total turnover declined by 1.2% to EUR 39 billion, and profits decreased dramatically by almost 16% to EUR 702 million. / 03 Country analysis and country ranking Top 3 largest companies in the Adriatic/Balkan region / 09 Sector analysis and sector ranking The Top 3, oil and gas giants who are well known from previous listings, maintained their positions from last year: INA from Croatia ranks first Coface contacts and is followed by Slovenian Petrol in second place. Number 3, Serbian / 11 Naftna, was the only company at the top that could again increase both turnover and net profit. Country Analysis Although the 15 top Slovenian companies generated the highest turnover in 2013 (EUR 14 billion), Croatia again holds the top position when ranked by the number of companies in the list (17). Due to the weak performance of leading Slovenian companies, many Croatian competitors moved up the ranking. Although less Serbian companies were represented, they showed exceptionally good performance for the region in question. Industry Review In 2013, as in 2012, the oil and gas sector reported the highest turnover in the region, followed by energy supply and retail. In most sectors turnover decreased compared to 2012, except for slight increases in retail, wholesale, pharmaceuticals and in the sector “Others” (including holding companies).
