Methodology and criteria for evaluating investments in electricity and gas infrastructure projects

The European Union's Infrastructure Regulation (that is, Regulation (EU) No 347/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2013 on guidelines for trans-European energy infrastructure) facilitates timely realisation of projects of common interest (PCIs) in the European Union. These are cross-border projects or projects with considerable cross-border impacts selected according to a process enshrined in the Regulation.
