The distribution of reservations across large parts of the core network confirms that the network expansion is being planned to meet demand and underscores the concrete need for a high-performance hydrogen infrastructure. <\/span><\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"fnb-zitat-autor\">Barbara Fischer, Managing Director of FNB Gas<\/div>\n                 <span class=\"zitat-line\"><\/span>\n        <\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of the reporting date of July 23, 2026, feed-in and off-take capacities totaling just under 6 GW had been reserved on a paid basis within the clusters, representing a doubling compared to the last publication on May 13, 2026. For cluster-to-cluster transmission (C\u00dcT), capacities totaling approximately 0.6 GW have been contractually reserved. In addition, requests for an additional 0.5 GW of capacity have been submitted and are currently under review.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The excess demand process developed by the grid operators has proven effective here; it has been successfully used on multiple occasions to meet demand that exceeded the initial capacity supply. The grid operators therefore expressly urge users to continue requesting capacity that exceeds the available supply in the future as well. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"container-fluid fnb-downloadl-block break-out\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n\n        <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-xs-12\">\n                <h4 class=\"rubrik text-center\">Downloads<\/h4>\n            <\/div>\n\n            <!-- Downloads -->\n            \n                                    \n                    <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-lg-10 col-xl-8 g-2 offset-lg-1 offset-xl-2 fnb-downloadl-item\">\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-name\"><b>Market Information Package 3 (DE)<\/b><\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-meta-wrap\">\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-beschriftung\">PDF \/ 4 MB<\/div>\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-button nep-dl-button\"><a\n                                        target=\"_blank\"\n                                        href=\"https:\/\/fnb-gas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/04.08.2026_DE-Marktinformationspaket-3.pdf\"> <\/a><\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-trenner\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n\n                                    \n                    <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-lg-10 col-xl-8 g-2 offset-lg-1 offset-xl-2 fnb-downloadl-item\">\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-name\"><b>Market Information Package 3 (EN)<\/b><\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-meta-wrap\">\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-beschriftung\">PDF \/ 4 MB<\/div>\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-button nep-dl-button\"><a\n                                        target=\"_blank\"\n                                        href=\"https:\/\/fnb-gas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/04.08.2026_ENG-Marktinformationspaket-3.pdf\"> <\/a><\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-trenner\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n\n                                    \n                    <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-lg-10 col-xl-8 g-2 offset-lg-1 offset-xl-2 fnb-downloadl-item\">\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-name\"><b>Press Release: Market Information Package 3 (DE)<\/b><\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-meta-wrap\">\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-beschriftung\">PDF \/ 304 KB<\/div>\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-button nep-dl-button\"><a\n                                        target=\"_blank\"\n                                        href=\"https:\/\/fnb-gas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/04.08.2026_DE-Pressemitteilung-MIP-3.pdf\"> <\/a><\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-trenner\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n\n                                    \n                    <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-lg-10 col-xl-8 g-2 offset-lg-1 offset-xl-2 fnb-downloadl-item\">\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-name\"><b>Press Release: Market Information Package 3 (EN)<\/b><\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-meta-wrap\">\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-beschriftung\">PDF \/ 313 KB<\/div>\n                            <div class=\"fnb-dl-button nep-dl-button\"><a\n                                        target=\"_blank\"\n                                        href=\"https:\/\/fnb-gas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/04.08.2026_ENG-Pressemitteilung-MIP-3.pdf\"> <\/a><\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"fnb-dl-trenner\"><span><\/span><\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n\n                                        <!-- \/Downloads -->\n\n        <\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the highly successful launch of the hydrogen capacity reservation phase, the core hydrogen network operators are today publishing a detailed overview of the reserved capacities and providing an update on capacity offerings.
