Germany assures adequate gas reserves for winter
Germany has confirmed that its current gas reserves are sufficient to meet its needs during the winter season, totaling approximately 136 terawatt-hours with a fill level exceeding 55%. This exceeds its consumption during the past half of winter, which was 134 terawatt-hours. Officials explained that Germany benefits from liquefied natural gas (LNG) reception terminals operating at 45% capacity, in addition to pipelines from Norway, allowing for the rapid import of additional quantities. They pointed out that the responsibility for filling the storage facilities lies with traders, who can achieve this through pipelines, LNG imports, or by drawing on reserves, while excluding costly government intervention.
