Energy: Gas storage could be enough for winter according to the authority
Autumn is approaching, and soon millions of households will need much more gas for their heating again. However, Germany's gas storage facilities are not too full. The Federal Network Agency does not share these concerns.
Germany's Federal Network Agency has alleviated concerns that the country's gas storage facilities may not be sufficient for the winter. The agency's head, Klaus Müller, stated that current gas storage levels are higher than the amount withdrawn during the same period last winter. Over 136 terawatt-hours of gas are currently stored, accounting for 55% of capacity, with more time for storage before winter.
Müller emphasized that the free market, rather than government intervention, should be relied upon to fill storage facilities.
