The overall objective of the project is to improve the current situation of living conditions and increase the degree of comfort for the inhabitants of the “GAZ VALEA MOLDOVITEI” ADI area in Suceava County. In these circumstances, the necessity and opportunity to make the investment regarding the development of the smart gas distribution network is obvious. Through the execution of the natural gas supply, the living conditions of the inhabitants of the localities belonging to the IDA “GAZ VALEA MOLDOVITEI” will be improved and improved, the implementation of the project having a positive impact on the environment, so that complete burns at consumer level will be ensured, resulting in a lower level of pollution due to the lack of incomplete combustion of solid fuels that contribute at this time and to increase the greenhouse effect. The realisation of the investment is aimed at: development of rural areas; raising the standard of living of the population by improving the standard of living; supporting the cessation of depopulation in rural areas by reducing rural-urban disparities; attracting investment in rural areas; creating new jobs; diminishing social and economic decline trends; making a positive impact on the human environment, on the health of the population, and on the physical environment. The overall objective of the project will directly contribute to achieving the result indicator of the 2S135 programme, by increasing the level of intelligent functionality of the national gas distribution infrastructure by 0.195 %. The calculation of the project’s estimated contribution to achieving the result indicator of the 2S135 programme was based on the reporting of the network length proposed by the project of 110.521 km, at the total length of the natural gas distribution network at national level, at 31.12.2019 and 56 694.00 km respectively. Thus, the ratio of 110.521 km/56.694 km x 100 generates a percentage of 0.195 %, being the percentage that represents the contribution of the project to the achievement of the 2S135 programme indicator, respectively the percentage of growth brought through the project to the smart grid available at national level. The contribution of the project to the realisation of the public utility service of natural gas supply to the population through an intelligent distribution network was calculated by reporting the number of households and public institutions proposed to be connected by the project to the total number of households in the communes, without taking into account socio-cultural objectives. Total number of households from IDA Gas Valea Moldovitei- 7539 households Total number of households and public institutions connected to the network — 5346 households The project contribution to the public utility service of natural gas supply to the population through an intelligent distribution network — 5346/(7539+ 103*2)*100=69.02 % Concerning the equivalence of public institutions with households,
