Energy: One company is reducing the gas storage cut - it's supposed to fill the storage facilities
To get through the winter, the government is relying on the operator with the lowest gas storage levels: Sefe. The head of sales is speaking at a Handelsblatt conference.
Germany is facing energy supply concerns due to high gas prices and low storage levels ahead of the heating season. Federal Minister of Economics Katherina Reiche has ordered state-owned gas company Sefe to fill storage facilities. However, experts, including Sebastian Heinermann of INES and Anne-Sophie Corbeau of Columbia University's Center on Global Energy Policy, warn that this may not be enough to see the country through winter.
Corbeau notes that a cold winter combined with low storage levels and restricted LNG exports could exacerbate the situation.
