The customer and the security of energy supply of the territories are at the heart of our concerns
Adapting to make gas an energy source of the future
Teréga has a public service mission. We guarantee the country’s security of gas supply and contribute to achieving France’s energy transition objectives.We ensure continuity of natural gas supply, energy efficiency and use of biogas.We are committed to securing local supply. Our infrastructures are essential to private individuals and businesses alike. We are involved in the development of the energy sector in the regions, but we are also involved directly and indirectly in their economic development.

Securing and modernising our gas grid
We undertake projects to modernise and develop our installations, to guarantee a quality service that meets the needs of the market.
In 2022, the total amount invested by us came to €163m.
For our Transport business, this was invested in grid development and infrastructure modernisation, security and maintenance.
For our Storage business, investment was chiefly in infrastructure modernisation, safety and maintenance of projects.
Accelerator of the energy transition
Encouraging the development of renewable gases
Hydrogen
Decarbonised hydrogen could help us tackle two challenges at once: accelerating the energy transition and strengthening France’s industrial fabric.A variety of solutions are being researched to move across to decarbonised hydrogen production. They include electrolysis of water, and waste pyro-gasification.
We are working to adapt our gas infrastructures to allow either the injection of hydrogen in a mix into the gas grid, or the injection of pure hydrogen into a dedicated transport grid.
Teréga launches the HySow project, a hydrogen transport and storage infrastructure and a major component of the future European hydrogen backbone.
NGV and BioNGV
Natural Gas for Vehicles is natural gas used as a fuel. It offers one of the best balances between economy and and overall cost of use. NGV has a number of advantages, including virtually zero fine particulate emissions, NOx emissions at half the Euro VI standard level, a lower price than traditional fuels, and the option to replace natural gas with biomethane, which is even greener: bioNGV.
In 2021, two public filling station on our grid was opened in Damazan (47) and Saint-Sulpice (81) as well as three private stations for our own fleet.
Biomethane
Methanisation projects enable us to recycle waste, produce renewable energy, and create non-relocatable employment.
The natural methanisation process consists in breaking down organic matter to produce biogas which, after treatment, can be injected into the grid as biomethane.
We provide support to all those leading biomethane projects, such as the Fonroche industrial plant in Villeneuve-sur-Lot and the AgriEnergies agricultural methanization projects in Auros and Mélusine in Aillas.
Multi-energy
In France, the different energy networks operate independently of one another, resulting in energy losses of between 25 and 60%.
The aim of multi-energies is to join up those networks, resulting in greater energy efficiency with optimised production closer to where consumers need it, energy transformation (electricity into hydrogen, for example, to allow storage) and energy storage for use at a later date.
Teréga has launched the IMPULSE 2025 project, a smart multi-energy grid that puts this approach into practice.
Synthetic methane
The methanation process which produces synthetic methane enables the recycling of CO2 from other processes, such as methanisation, transforming it into methane by adding renewably sourced H2. This means that methanation can double the energy production efficiency of a methanisation plant, while at the same time reducing its greenhouse gas emissions.
We make an active contribution to collaborative projects designed to produce synthetic methane at both the laboratory and industrial scales, supporting projects such as Methamag and Jupiter 1000.
Accelerator of the energy transition
Call for expressions of interest (AMI) H2 and CO2
In December 2022, as part of its decarbonization strategy, Europe identified H2 and CO2 infrastructure projects likely to be of interest to the EU. On this occasion, the projects led by Teréga (HySoW, Pycasso and H2-Med BARMAR as part of the consortium in place) received strong support from dozens of stakeholders in our territory.
Teréga then decided to launch this AMI, with the aim of gaining a clearer picture of the needs of the various regional, national and European players in the field of H2 and CO2 transport and storage. The results of this AMI will also enable us to evolve the design of our projects to respond as optimally as possible to the needs of players and territories.
Corporate social responsibility
Achieving energy transition and decarbonization targets
The Teréga Group's organizational structure is based on three levels of companies. Teréga Holding SAS owns 100% of Teréga SAS, which is both the majority shareholder (99.99%) of Teréga SA and the sole shareholder of Teréga Solutions SAS, dedicated to the non-regulated activities of the Teréga Group.
Teréga has made CSR a key pillar of its governance and strategy. Its Board of Directors pays particular attention to the social, societal and environmental aspects of the Company's projects and strategy, in order to ensure that its operational and commercial activities have a positive impact on society.

BE Positif
Our BE Positif program (Bilan Environnemental Positif) aims to erase the environmental footprint of our activities, with a trajectory that contributes to France's carbon neutrality by 2050, in line with the 2015 Paris Agreements.
Our approach is based on the “Avoid - Reduce - Compensate” methodology:
avoid any environmental impact that can be avoided,
reduce our current impacts,
compensate by creating environmental value.
