CG By the Numbers: The natural gas storage advantage

CG By the Numbers: The natural gas storage advantage August 2024 CGA By the Numbers: The natural gas storage advantage In this issue of By the Numbers, we look at the important role storage plays in today’s energy systems, specifically the natural gas storage capacity in Canada and how it is critical to deliver reliable and stable energy supply. [...] We finish by examining the current state of electric battery storage and provide a comparison of the storage capacities between the gas energy and electric systems. [...] Meanwhile, with 356 MW of power and 539 currently exists in Canada? And in other parts of the MWh of storage, it means that Canada’s current energy world? And how does natural gas storage stack up? storage can only provide 1.5 hours of energy supply By the end of 2023, the total electric battery storage before needing to be recharged. [...] The chart below compares As the comparison above shows, Canada’s natural storage capacities of both the natural gas and electric gas storage is an critical asset in Canada’s energy battery systems in Canada, the US, and the rest of the security. [...] Despite being the As we’ve seen in this issue of By the Numbers, gas global leader, the battery storage capacity in the US is storage is and will continue to be an integral part of more than 130,000 times lower than its own domestic our energy infrastructure.
