Gas Storage
Gas storage involves keeping natural gas within specially designed facilities to ensure supply stability. These storage sites, often underground rock formations or salt caverns, act like huge batteries, holding gas when demand is low and releasing it when needed, such as during peak usage or emergencies. This process helps balance market needs, maintain reliable energy supplies, and manage price fluctuations. By storing excess gas during times of low demand, utilities can quickly provide additional supply without relying solely on new production, ensuring consistent and flexible energy availability.
