Document background
A Gas Purchase Agreement is essential for establishing legally binding arrangements for gas supply transactions in the German market. This document is typically used when parties need to formalize medium to long-term gas supply arrangements, requiring detailed terms for delivery, measurement, and payment. The agreement must comply with German energy regulations, particularly the EnWG and associated ordinances, while also considering EU energy market rules. It contains technical specifications, operational procedures, and commercial terms, including price mechanisms that align with German market practices. The document is crucial for ensuring security of supply and managing regulatory compliance in Germany's regulated gas market.
