Energy Distribution Services
The final links in an especially complex chain, distribution networks transport natural gas to the end consumer. Involved in every stage of the natural gas value chain, ENGIE has built up a major distribution network which it maintains and operates, in France and abroad, with a permanent concern for reliability and safety.
Gas distribution networks are structures that are mainly made up of medium or low pressure pipelines. Their role is to route natural gas to end consumers.
ENGIE has the largest natural gas distribution network in Europe. In France, the Group manages a 194,600 km network via its subsidiary GrDF, in charge of its upkeep, functioning and development.
