This value is also supported by an <a href=\"https:\/\/fnb-gas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/210909_nera_gutachten_zum_ek-zinssatz_fuer_h2-netze_stc.pdf\">expert opinion<\/a> commissioned by FNB Gas <a href=\"https:\/\/fnb-gas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/210909_nera_gutachten_zum_ek-zinssatz_fuer_h2-netze_stc.pdf\">from NERA<\/a>.
