Warsaw will have access to gas from the LNG terminal and Baltic Pipe thanks to the new gas pipeline

The construction of the 308 km Gustorzyn-Wronów gas pipeline, an investment carried out by Gaz-System, is underway. It will supply, among others, the Warsaw Agglomeration with gas from the Baltic Pipe and LNG terminals.
The Gustorzyn-Wronów gas pipeline, with a total length of approx. 308 km and a diameter of 1000 mm, is a key investment to ensure the flexibility and security of gas supplies to customers in central Poland. The main task of the new gas pipeline is to connect the hub and gas compressor station under construction in Gustorzyn (Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodship) with the hub and compressor station in Wronowo (Lubelskie Voivodeship).
