      Questions referred
   
   
               1.
            
            
               Are the terms ‘mass balance’ and ‘mixture’ in Article 18(1) of Directive 2009/28 (1) to be interpreted as meaning that the Member States have an obligation to accept trade in biogas between Member States via an interconnected gas network?
            
         
               2.
            
            
               If the answer to question 1 is in the negative, in that case is the relevant provision of the directive compatible with Article 34 TFEU, despite the fact that application thereof is likely to have the effect of restricting trade?
            
         
      (1)  Directive 2009/28/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources and amending and subsequently repealing Directives 2001/77/EC and 2003/30/EC (OJ 2009 L 140, p. 16).
